Opportunity

The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Oregon State Office is soliciting proposals for a firm-fixed-price, indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) commercial services contract to provide cultural resource inventory and evaluation services. This requirement supports operations in the Spokane and Vale districts across eastern Washington and eastern Oregon. The contract features a performance period consisting of a one-year base period followed by four one-year options, with a total maximum value of $990,000.00 and a minimum guarantee of $20,000.00.

This procurement is designated as an SBA Small Business Set-Aside under NAICS code 541720, Research and Development in the Social Sciences and Humanities, and PSC code B. The BLM intends to award the contract to a responsible offeror based on a best value continuum using the lowest price technically acceptable source selection process. Evaluation factors include past performance, technical capabilities, and a quality control plan, which are significantly more important than price when combined.

Solicitation L12PS01126 was published on August 2, 2012, with a final response deadline of September 12, 2012. Project oversight is managed by the Oregon State Office through point of contact Curtis B. Basham.
