Lynker Wins $125M Contract from NOAA’s National Data Buoy Center
Lynker has won a five-year, $125 million ProTech Oceans task order from NOAA’s National Data Buoy Center (NDBC) to provide a broad range of technical services supporting the operation and maintenance of the world’s largest maritime observing network, which provides essential information to support the protection of life and property.
“We look forward to providing end-to-end services and growing this critical national observing capability, which is at the core of NDBC’s mission to protect lives, ensure maritime safety, and enhance coastal economies,” said Joe Linza, Lynker Founder and CEO.
Lynker and its team members—ECS, SoFar Ocean, and GDIT—have decades of experience supporting NOAA. The Lynker-led team will ensure uninterrupted delivery of high-quality data from NDBC’s observing network; assemble and repair environmental data platforms and networks; test and transition new technology; and ensure facility safety and environmental compliance.
