- Description
- THIS NOTICE OF INTENT IS NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS. This notice is for informational purposes only and is not to be construed as a commitment by the Government. Vendors that believe they can provide the data described below are invited to submit substantiating documentation in writing to the identified point of contact. Information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. Oral communications are not acceptable in response to this notice. A determination by the Government to compete this proposed contract based on responses to this notice is solely at the discretion of the Government. In order to provide policymakers and other interested parties with information on pesticide usage in California, Kynetec created Real Time Cal AgriSceneTM, a market analysis tool that pulls pesticide usage information from the California Agricultural Permits and presents the data in a usable interface that allows users to query information in any county or geographic area within the state. Cal AgriSceneTM also allows for registered permit records to be viewed at the grower level. With this detail, behavior patterns over time can be analyzed providing greater understanding of treatment practices at the individual farm level. These data represent over 450 commodities and is by far the most extensive data source available, covering hundreds of specialty crops whose pesticide usage is not surveyed by other sources. Kynetec has also compiled information on harvested acreage, yield, production, price, and total commodity value at the county level. No other data source provides all this information in an easily digestible format. Real Time Cal AgriSceneTM covers 2017 usage data along with 13 years of historic data and supplies users with 6 in-season data deliveries for the current year's chemical usage. The Government intends to award a 12month FFP contract for these services to Kynetec USA Inc. Anticipated Date of Award: 9/25/17
