What the buyer is trying to do

Secure Oregon-specific data collection and delivery for the USFWS 2027 National Survey of Fishing, Hunting, and Wildlife-Associated Recreation by partnering with NORC via AFWA, producing updated Oregon estimates on demographics, participation, and household expenditures tied to hunting, fishing, and wildlife recreation.

Who should pursue this
  • Likely only the intended sole source path: National Opinion Research Center (NORC) delivering through the Association of Fish and Wildlife Agencies (AFWA), as stated by ODFW
Work breakdown
  • Coordinate with ODFW, AFWA, and NORC on Oregon-specific execution for the USFWS 2027 National Survey
  • Collect Oregon-specific survey data supporting the USFWS 2027 National Survey instrument/framework
  • Produce and deliver Oregon-specific outputs/data to ODFW
  • Ensure delivered data supports updates to: (1) demographics, (2) participation, and (3) household expenditures for Oregon hunting, fishing, and wildlife-related recreation
Response package checklist
  • Download and review both attachments (downloadFileNbr=692668 and 692670) referenced in the notice for sole source justification/response instructions
  • If submitting an objection/comment, align content to the agency’s sole source rationale and address ability to provide Oregon-specific data for the USFWS 2027 National Survey
  • Cite the notice title and OregonBuys document ID S-63500-00016389 in any correspondence
  • Submit any response by 2026-03-26T14:10:00+00:00
More BidPulsar strategy notesCompliance, pricing, teaming, risks, questions, and coverage notes
Compliance notes
  • Notice explicitly states: “THIS IS A NOTICE, NOT A BID. SEE ATTACHMENTS FOR INFORMATION.”
  • Agency intent is to partner with NORC through AFWA for the Oregon-specific data collection and delivery for the USFWS 2027 National Survey
Pricing strategy
  • No pricing structure is provided in the notice; any pricing/fee approach (if applicable) should be taken from the attachments and aligned to Oregon-specific data collection and delivery scope for the USFWS 2027 National Survey
Teaming and subs
  • Stated teaming/vehicle approach is NORC delivering through AFWA; any alternative teaming would need to be framed as a challenge to the sole source premise and supported by specifics from the attachments
Risks and watchouts
  • High likelihood of no competitive award path: the agency states an intent to partner with NORC via AFWA and calls this a notice, not a bid
  • Critical requirements may exist only in the attachments; failing to review them risks missing the sole source justification, response instructions, and any allowable protest/objection process
  • Scope may be constrained to Oregon-specific deliverables within the USFWS 2027 National Survey framework, limiting alternative technical approaches
Smart questions to ask
  • Do the attachments specify an objection/comment process for the sole source (format, recipient, and evaluation criteria) prior to the 2026-03-26 deadline?
  • What exact Oregon-specific deliverables are required (e.g., dataset formats, weighting, tabulations, documentation) for the USFWS 2027 National Survey?
  • What is the planned period of performance for the Oregon-specific data collection and delivery?
  • What role does ODFW expect of AFWA vs. NORC in contracting and deliverable acceptance?
Source coverage notes

Some notices publish limited source detail. Confirm these points before final bid/no-bid decisions.

  • Contents of the two attachments (downloadFileNbr=692668 and 692670), including the sole source justification and any response instructions
  • Notice type, solicitation number, and PSC/NAICS codes (not provided)
  • Place of performance and period of performance dates (not provided)
  • Any stated deliverable specifications (data formats, reporting/tabulations, methodology requirements) beyond the short description

FAQ

How do I use the Market Snapshot?

It summarizes awarded-contract behavior for the opportunity’s NAICS and sector, including a recent pricing band (P10–P90), momentum, and composition. Use it as context, not a guarantee.

Is the data live?

The signal updates as new awarded notices enter the system. Always validate the official award and solicitation details on SAM.gov.

What do P10 and P90 mean?

P10 is the 10th percentile award size and P90 is the 90th percentile. Together they describe the typical spread of award values.
