Travel management blanket purchase agreement (BPA)

Advanced Resource Solutions, Inc. (ARS), a California-based small business subchapter S corporation, holds a $10 million single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement with the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) National Office, effective July 1, 2021 through June 30, 2026. The BPA was awarded without a competitive set-aside and has been modified to ensure compliance with updated federal guidance and to eliminate non-statutory sustainability requirements while enhancing representational and certification clauses. Under this vehicle, ARS delivers comprehensive technical, scientific, and management services focused on land and natural resource stewardship across multiple BLM regions nationwide, including Arizona, Colorado, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, Oregon, Utah, and Wyoming. The contractor specializes in travel management planning, route inventory and evaluation, watershed assessments, National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) documentation, off-highway vehicle (OHV) trail assessments, and transportation infrastructure planning for public lands managed by the BLM. As of the contract documentation provided, ARS has received over $2.5 million in task orders against the BPA ceiling, demonstrating significant utilization of this vehicle for regional BLM field offices and specialized management initiatives.

The task orders issued under this BPA reflect firm fixed-price call orders ranging from approximately $8,660 to $525,546, with the majority designated as small business set-asides to support the agency's procurement preferences. Representative task orders include comprehensive travel management plans for specific geographic areas such as the Lower Blackfoot Watershed in Montana, Seymour Creek, Little Rockies, and Dolores areas; route inventory projects for North Campbell County, North Fork, and the Dillon Field Office; NEPA work for the Nestucca Off-Highway Vehicle Trail in Oregon; and regional travel management blanket agreements such as the Arizona Order-Travel Management BPA valued at $525,546. Performance locations span from field sites throughout the western United States to ARS's corporate headquarters in Cameron Park, California, with completion dates extending through 2027. The contract structure enables BLM regional offices to issue targeted call orders for specialized technical services supporting the agency's comprehensive public lands management mission and recreational access planning objectives.
