Gardening Maintenance Services

The Department of State’s U.S. Embassy in Abu Dhabi intends to issue a solicitation for comprehensive gardening maintenance services for real property owned or managed by the U.S. Government. The scope of work includes the U.S. Embassy compound as well as the residences of the Ambassador and the Deputy Chief of Mission in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. All work must be performed directly by the contractor’s trained employees, as subcontracting is prohibited under the terms of this requirement.

The anticipated contract structure is a firm-fixed-price type consisting of a base year and four one-year option periods. This procurement is classified under NAICS 561730 for Landscaping Services and PSC 3750 for Gardening Implements and Tools. The government intends to evaluate proposals from all responsible sources and may award the contract based on initial offers without conducting discussions.

Formal solicitation number 19TC1026R0002 is expected to be released following this pre-solicitation notice, which was published on February 13, 2026. The response deadline is March 30, 2026, and the primary point of contact is Gregory Stoneberg. A pre-proposal conference is planned, with specific date and attendance details to be provided in the forthcoming solicitation documents. One attachment, a pre-solicitation synopsis, was included with the initial notice.
