Indefinite Delivery Contract 36C78625D50295

This indefinite delivery contract was awarded by the National Cemetery Administration (NCA), a civilian agency within the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, to Great Lakes Investment Property LLC, a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB). The contract is for slope mowing services at the Natchez National Cemetery in Natchez, Mississippi, with a period of performance through May 31, 2026 and a ceiling value of $32,604. The original solicitation was a total SDVOSB set-aside, seeking a contractor to perform comprehensive cemetery slope maintenance including mowing, trimming, and debris removal. The contract is a firm fixed-price, indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) services contract, allowing the NCA to issue task orders as needed. Great Lakes Investment Property LLC has demonstrated expertise in cemetery preservation and maintenance services for the NCA and U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, holding multiple similar IDIQ contracts across several states.

The contractor will be responsible for mowing approximately 86,423 square feet of slope turf areas 44 times per year, from May through November, on slopes with grades up to 60 degrees surrounding military headstones. The previous contract was held by Sanford Federal, Inc. The procurement prioritizes technical qualifications and past performance over price, with special standards of responsibility including demonstrating safety procedures, supervisor qualifications, and experience in industrial, commercial, or public grounds maintenance. This contract award supports the government's commitment to maintaining veterans' memorial sites with dignity and respect.
