The A-E Easement Boundary Surveying Services Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract is a multiple-award contract issued by the United States Department of Agriculture's Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) for professional land surveying services. The primary purpose of this contract vehicle is to support the NRCS's land conservation programs by providing comprehensive boundary survey services for agricultural conservation easements, wetland reserve easements, and other conservation-related land management initiatives. Surveyors under this contract are required to conduct legal boundary surveys, measurements, computations, monumentation, marking, and drawing services for various properties across the United States and its territories.

The task orders under this IDIQ consistently involve boundary surveys for conservation easements, with most delivery orders ranging from approximately $30,000 to $400,000 and typical performance periods of 6-12 months. Frequent prime contractors include Midland Surveying (a HUBZone-certified small business), Artisan Consulting Engineers (a small disadvantaged business), NTB Associates (a self-certified small disadvantaged business), and Coleman Engineering Company. While the original solicitation indicated a total small business set-aside, many individual task orders do not specify a set-aside designation. The work predominantly covers Midwestern and Southeastern states, with surveys supporting programs like the Agricultural Conservation Easement Program (ACEP), Wetlands Reserve Easement Program (WRE), and various federal land conservation initiatives. The contract allows for rapid procurement of surveying expertise to support the NRCS's mission of conserving natural resources on private lands.
