- Description
- The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS), Contracting and General Services in Falls Church, VA intends to award to the Association of State Wetland Managers Inc., 32 Tandberg Trail, Suit 2A, Windham, ME 04062 for educational webinars and outreach. The objective of this work is to provide training and outreach material for the National Wetlands Inventory (NWI) focused on state managers and professionals involved in mapping wetlands. NWI hosts the wetlands mapper consisting of digital maps of all the wetlands of the United States. These maps constitute the wetlands geographic information system (GIS) spatial data layer for the Federal Government ¿s Geographic Data Committee. NWI is seeking a series of outreach training and technical services directed at state wetland managers and their contractors to ensure that new wetland maps can pass the Services ¿ QA/QC review with minimal problems. NWI requires the utilization of the extensive contacts of the Association of State Wetland Managers (ASWM) to ensure that the training material is developed for and is being used by the major mapping providers thereby limiting the amount of changes (and staff time) needed before the data can be incorporated into the NWI mapper. ASWN is the only entity with the required network of state managers who manage the majority of new wetland mapping data going to NWI, ASWM is uniquely qualified to provide targeted training and outreach materials as well as receive mapping schedules from NWI ¿s core constituency. The proposed contract is for services for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b). All responsible sources may identify their interest and capability for this requirement by responding to this announcement. All proposals received within fifteen days after date of publication of this synopsis will be considered by the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed contract based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government.
