The purpose of this notice is to obtain information regarding the availability and capability of all qualified sources to provide a potential requirement.

The Cherokee National Forest is in need of a long term (5-10 years), semi-permanent, seismic intrusion detection system for use at a designated site (approx. 4 acres) in the Forest. Requirements for the system include wireless sensors for burial around the site to be protected. Transmitters need to be equipped with radio frequency transmitters to send to a monitored receiver. The receiver must be equipped for Short Message Service (SMS) for contacting cell phones. Devices must have a long battery life (1½ -- 2 years). System must be able to differentiate between human, wildlife and vehicular signatures. System must have local and remote programming capabilities. Interested vendors with the capabilities to provide this type system should attach informational material about the company, including brochures etc. Please include in your submission answers to the following: A) Under NAICS Code 334290 - Other Communications Manufacturing, are you a large or small business against the SBA size standard of 750 employees? B) If another NAICS code may be applicable, please identify the NAICS in your Capability Statement. Please respond by May 29, 2012 to Jane Adler, Purchasing Agent, jadler@fs.fed.us.

After a review of the responses received, a pre-solicitation synopsis and solicitation may be published in Federal Business Opportunities. We anticipate this project being available in early summer of 2012; however there is no guarantee or implication of a guarantee that this project will be solicited.
