About this award
The Department of Veterans Affairs National Cemetery Administration awarded a $205,790 delivery order to Merz Vault Company, Inc., a veteran-owned manufacturer of grave liners and burial vault materials based in Salem, Illinois. This firm fixed-price task order, designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, covers the period of April 1, 2026 through March 31, 2027 and represents work performed at Lemay Township, Missouri. The delivery order exercises an option period under an existing Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) established between the VA and Merz Vault Company, enabling the agency to procure grave liners, burial vault materials, and associated installation services on an as-needed basis to support dignified interment operations across the VA national cemetery system.

The company's work encompasses the supply and installation of concrete grave liners, grave liner lids, and related reopening and relocation services, with services concentrated at facilities such as Jefferson Barracks National Cemetery in Missouri. This award reflects the VA's continued reliance on Merz Vault Company's expertise in meeting the specialized requirements of the nation's veterans burial program, with the company having been determined by the agency as the sole responsible source for these critical cemetery operational support services.
