About this IDV
The National Science Foundation's Directorate for Mathematical and Physical Sciences awarded a single-award, 8(a) sole source Indefinite Delivery Contract to Unico LLC, an Alaska Native Corporation-owned small disadvantaged business, for site maintenance services at the Arecibo Observatory in Arecibo, Puerto Rico. The contract is valued at $23.25 million with a performance period extending from October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2030. Unico LLC will provide comprehensive grounds maintenance and facility support services necessary to sustain operations at the historic observatory facility, which serves as a critical asset for the NSF's scientific research mission. The contract is structured on a firm fixed-price basis, enabling the government to issue task orders as requirements arise while maintaining predictable costs for facility operations.
To date, three delivery orders have been issued under this indefinite delivery contract, totaling approximately $2.29 million. The initial delivery order, awarded on October 1, 2025, valued at $2.14 million, addresses ongoing site maintenance services with completion targeted for December 18, 2026. A second delivery order, issued on December 16, 2025 for $13,655.10, covers general site maintenance through January 16, 2026. A third delivery order, awarded on February 4, 2026 in the amount of $136,344, addresses non-recurring repair services with completion by September 30, 2026. All delivery orders were awarded without socioeconomic set-aside designations, reflecting competitive evaluation within the established contract framework. These task orders represent the initial implementation of the broader maintenance framework, with the remaining contract ceiling available for additional facility maintenance requirements throughout the five-year performance period.
