About this IDV

North Wind Resource Consulting LLC, a subsidiary of Ciri Development Corporation (an Alaska Native Corporation), holds a $7.5 million multiple-award Blanket Purchase Agreement with the U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service Region 8 - Southern Region for archaeological and cultural heritage services across multiple national forests. The BPA, awarded December 21, 2021, with an ultimate completion date of December 21, 2026, was solicited as a Total Small Business set-aside on September 22, 2021. The contract provides the Forest Service with on-call access to archaeological survey services, Phase I and Phase II archaeological investigations, cultural heritage inventories, and related technical support necessary to comply with federal cultural resource management obligations and inform land management decisions across the Southern Region's forest portfolio. Work has been performed at various locations throughout the region, including national forests in Arkansas, Louisiana, and Mississippi.

Through this BPA vehicle, North Wind Resource Consulting has executed numerous task orders ranging from approximately $16,850 to $287,882, conducting archaeological surveys across thousands of acres of national forest lands. Representative task orders include cultural heritage surveys in support of prescribed burn management, timber sale operations, vegetation management projects, and general forest management activities on forests such as Ozark-St. Francis, Bienville, Delta, Homochitto, and De Soto National Forests. The majority of task orders have been set aside for small businesses, reflecting the government's commitment to engaging socioeconomically disadvantaged contractors. North Wind Resource Consulting's performance under this BPA demonstrates the contractor's capability to deliver specialized archaeological and cultural resource management expertise required by federal land management agencies to balance resource utilization with statutory obligations to identify, evaluate, and protect significant cultural and archaeological resources on public lands.
