The National Park Service awarded a single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract to The Design Minds, Inc. to provide exhibit planning and design services nationwide over a five-year period from June 2022 to May 2027, with a potential value of $25 million. The contract is set aside for total small businesses. Under this IDV, The Design Minds has received multiple delivery orders for exhibit development projects at various National Park Service sites. Examples include orders valued from $147,000 to $199,000 for new exhibits at Dinosaur National Monument, Fort Smith National Historic Site, Little Bighorn Battlefield National Monument, William Howard Taft National Historic Site, and the National Park Service headquarters. Performance periods range from 18 to 30 months at locations including Fairfax, Virginia and Harpers Ferry, West Virginia. In April 2021, the National Park Service released a pre-solicitation notice for a multiple-award IDIQ soliciting proposals for museum interpretive exhibit planning and design services nationwide over five years. The resulting IDV contracts were to be set aside for total small businesses to aid parks in rehabilitating or replacing outdated exhibits and producing new displays, in support of the agency's educational and cultural preservation mission.
