The contract was competitively solicited as a Total Small Business set-aside opportunity, with posting on May 26, 2020 and a due date of July 1, 2020. New South Associates' qualifications as a Women-Owned Small Business and Disadvantaged Business Enterprise, combined with its extensive experience in cultural resource management for federal agencies, positioned the firm as the selected contractor for this vehicle.
Under this BPA framework, New South Associates provides comprehensive archaeological and cultural resource management services supporting the Forest Service's compliance obligations under the National Historic Preservation Act, Native American Graves Protection and Repatrination Act, and related federal cultural preservation statutes. A representative task order issued on September 28, 2022, by the Francis Marion and Sumter National Forests (valued at $315,987.58 with performance through May 31, 2025) demonstrates the contract's application, requiring the contractor to conduct extensive research and analysis of prehistoric and historic occupation patterns across the national forests.
