- Description
- The United States Geological Survey (USGS) is a science organization that provides impartial information on the health of our ecosystems and environments, the natural hazards that threaten us, the natural resources we rely on, the impacts of climate and land-use change, and the core science systems that help us provide timely, relevant, and useable information. USGS is a bureau of the U.S. Department of Interior (DOI). The USGS Pacific Coastal and Marine Science Center (PCMSC, http://walrus.wr.usgs.gov; CMGP, http://marine.usgs.gov) conducts multidisciplinary scientific research in the coastal and offshore areas of California, Oregon, Washington, Alaska, Hawaii, and other U.S. Pacific Islands, and in other waterways of the United States. The prospective contract concerns science outreach services relating to the mission and programs of the USGS PCMSC. Contractor shall provide non-personal professional science communication and consultation services for the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), Pacific Coastal and Marine Science Center, Santa Cruz, CA. This activity will help make USGS science activities, processes, and results accessible, understandable, and meaningful to non-scientists, including the public, partners, and other stakeholders. The contractor will not represent the government in any manner, place, or forum. Contractor will consult, develop, and provide outreach methods such as Fact Sheets or other written outreach products, web-pages, photos, podcasts, videos, articles for local, regional, or national media outlets, articles for in-house outreach products such as USGS Sound Waves, posters and (or) displays, presentations, or similar products. Topics may include integrated Center research interests, Center capabilities and tools, selected project activities, highlights of research results, human-interest stories, disaster response stories, or similar subjects. It is desirable that Contractor maintain or establish a presence in the Santa Cruz, CA geographic area in order to more effectively interact with PCMSC management, projects, and activities; and, have specific experience in similar or closely related science communication/outreach services, with a strong preference for coastal and marine science specialization. This solicitation process is being conducted under FAR Part 12, Commercial Items and FAR Part 13, Simplified Acquisition Procedures. See solicitation package for full details, the SOW, and the applicable evaluation criteria.
