BLM National Environmental Policy Act Support Services

The Department of the Interior Bureau of Land Management is procuring NEPA support services under a Master BPA established August 23, 2018, with a combined shared ceiling of $50 million. The ordering period closed August 22, 2021, and no new orders may be placed against the vehicle — it remains active only for ongoing task-order performance and closeouts.

The vehicle has obligated $85.7 million across 156 task orders (95% of the combined potential value), indicating nearly complete burn-down of the procurement envelope. Over 2024, only one order was issued, marking a steep decline from ordering activity in prior years (42 orders in 2022, 31 in 2021, 30 in 2023). The sustained ordering window of roughly three years combined with the recent order in May 2024 suggests that task-order performance extends well into 2026 and 2027, even as new procurement opportunities have closed.

Environmental Management & Planning Solutions LLC dominates the vehicle, holding 82 of 156 task orders and $47.5 million in combined potential value — more than half the total work. The next-largest primes are Swca, Incorporated ($20.7 million across 22 orders) and ICF Incorporated ($12 million across 25 orders). These three firms account for roughly 75% of combined potential value; a longer tail of five additional primes (including AECOM Technical Services and WSP USA Solutions) completes the field.

Work funded by the Department of the Interior Bureau of Land Management National Office captures 45 of the top customer orders and $22.3 million in value. Regional BLM offices—Nevada, New Mexico, and Colorado—place the next-largest share of orders. The National Park Service National Office also funds orders under the vehicle, indicating some cross-agency use within Interior.

Approximately 80% of task orders carry no set-aside designation; 15% are set aside for small business. Recent orders span environmental impact statements for public lands (Lower Colorado River Reservoir operational strategies, Bears Ears National Monument resource management), resource management plan amendments, and land-exchange NEPA documentation. Durations and values vary widely; the May 2024 Grand Staircase-National Monument resource management plan order carried a ceiling of $2.14 million, while the April 2023 Lower Colorado River EIS ($14.4 million) represents a large single engagement.

Place of performance is geographically distributed across BLM regions nationwide, with significant work in the Southwest (Nevada, New Mexico, Colorado), California, Alaska, and Montana.
