Architect and Engineering Services for Cemeteries

The Architect and Engineering Services for Cemeteries Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract is a multiple-award vehicle issued by the National Cemetery Administration (NCA) within the Department of Veterans Affairs for comprehensive architectural and engineering (A&E) design services. The contract supports the design, construction, renovation, repairs, and commissioning of national cemeteries, including associated buildings, roadways, and infrastructure projects located throughout the United States. Solicitation documents indicate the contract was strategically divided into geographical zones, with up to five awards possible per district, and was initially set aside for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB).

Task orders under this IDIQ demonstrate a wide range of cemetery-related professional services, typically valued between $50,000 and $1.8 million, with performance periods ranging from six to 24 months. Frequent prime contractors include Vali Cooper International LLC, Anderson Engineering of Minnesota, Integrity - The La Group Joint Venture, Chimborazo JV, and Walker Federal Services, all of which have significant experience in federal infrastructure design. While some task orders are set aside for SDVOSBs, many are unrestricted, covering services such as cemetery expansion studies, road and infrastructure design, construction period inspection services, facility condition assessments, and utility surveys. Performance locations span multiple states, with notable work in California, Arizona, New Mexico, Louisiana, Tennessee, and Hawaii, demonstrating the nationwide scope of the NCA's cemetery improvement and maintenance initiatives.
