Custom Lithium‑Ion Battery Packs for GPS–Accelerometer Livestock Monitoring Devices

Oregon State University intends to contract for the provision of custom lithium‑ion battery packs from Tenergy Corporation as a sole source because of the uniqueness (design, capability, nature) of the goods and the contractor being the single provider of the goods. The contractor must be able to manufacture battery packs with a specific electrical configuration (3.63V nominal voltage, minimum 42Ah capacity, 1S12P configuration), integrated protection circuitry, and a custom physical form factor that is fully compatible with GPS–accelerometer units manufactured by Yost Labs, Inc. The battery packs must also incorporate a mini male Tamiya connector and 16‑AWG silicone wiring and be capable of delivering approximately 45 days of continuous operation under variable rangeland field conditions, including temperature fluctuation, vibration, and livestock movement. An entity may appeal this determination in accordance with OSU Standard 03‑010, Section 5.17 no later than the closing date indicated on the website. Appeals must be submitted to Procurement, Contracts and Materials Management at procurement@oregonstate.edu by 04/23/2026 at 3:30PM PST.
