Blanket Purchase Agreement 75H71520A00010

The Department of Health and Human Services' Indian Health Service (HHS IHS) has awarded a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) to Aubertine & Currier Architects Engineers & Land Surveyors PLLC, a certified Economically Disadvantaged Women-Owned Small Business (EDWOSB) and Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB). The $650,000 multiple-award BPA, set to run from October 2019 through September 2024, is for architectural and engineering services related to sewage, waste, and water facilities serving American Indian communities. Under this BPA, Aubertine & Currier has received numerous firm-fixed-price task orders ranging from $8,520 to $100,000 to provide planning, design, and construction oversight for health clinics, hospitals, and related infrastructure projects. The BPA calls are often set aside for total small business participation, leveraging Aubertine & Currier's SBA certifications. This contracting vehicle supports the IHS's mission to improve healthcare and sanitation infrastructure for Native American populations.

The original solicitation, issued as a pre-solicitation notice, sought surveying and engineering technician services to design sanitation facilities for American Indian communities lacking safe wastewater disposal systems. The 100% small business set-aside contract, with a base period plus four one-year options, was awarded to multiple firms including Aubertine & Currier. As an incumbent BPA holder, the company has demonstrated its capability to deliver a range of architectural, engineering, and land surveying services to the HHS IHS, often in support of infrastructure projects in New York and Tennessee.
