About this IDV
Gray & Pape Inc., a women-owned small business certified as both an Economically Disadvantaged Women-Owned Small Business and Women-Owned Small Business, was awarded a single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement by the United States Department of Agriculture Natural Resources Conservation Service (USDA NRCS) Massachusetts State Office for cultural resources investigations and management services. The contract, awarded on March 27, 2026, carries a ceiling value of $600,000 and extends through March 26, 2027. The scope of work encompasses archaeological and cultural resources investigations necessary to ensure NRCS compliance with the National Historic Preservation Act (Section 106) and the National Environmental Policy Act. Services include background research, architectural reviews, Phase 1A and Phase 1B archaeological surveys, artifact analysis, site documentation, and historical context studies to support federal agency decision-making on projects with potential cultural resource impacts.
The original solicitation, posted as a pre-solicitation notice on December 16, 2025, indicated an anticipated five-year contract performance period beginning February 23, 2026, structured as a one-year base period followed by four one-year option periods, though the awarded BPA reflects a modified timeline. The contract operates on a task-order basis with individualized scope and scheduling determined through specific task placements. Gray & Pape's selection reflects demonstrated technical competence in Massachusetts Historical Commission guidelines, archaeological survey methodologies, and human remains handling protocols. Performance requirements are stringent, mandating draft reports within 15-40 federal business days and final reports within 7 federal business days of receiving government comments, with a maximum allowance of 5 documentable errors per task order, enforced through a Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan.
