Habitat and Invasive Species Services

The Habitat and Invasive Species Services Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract, awarded by the Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command Southwest, provides comprehensive environmental management services for Navy and Marine Corps installations across six western states: Arizona, California, Colorado, Nevada, New Mexico, and Utah. The contract's scope encompasses a wide range of ecological services, including invasive weed control, habitat enhancement, erosion control, earth moving, biomass removal, planting, species protection, and environmental monitoring. With a total contract ceiling of $98.5 million and a performance period through March 2032, the vehicle enables task order competition among multiple prime contractors to address complex environmental challenges across diverse terrain and ecosystems.

Task orders under this vehicle typically range from $50,000 to $1 million, with performance periods spanning 18-36 months and focus on specialized ecological interventions. Frequent prime contractors include Tierra Data Inc. (an Economically Disadvantaged Women-Owned Small Business), Gulf South Research Corp (a Woman-Owned Small Business), ACS Habitat Management (a minority-owned business), and Sierra JV (a small disadvantaged business). Common funding agencies are the Naval Facilities Engineering Command and Navy Installations Command, with most task orders supporting marine and military installations in California. The majority of task orders do not have specific set-aside designations, indicating open competition, and frequently involve precise ecological services such as least tern habitat maintenance, exotic plant control, sensitive species protection, and comprehensive habitat restoration across challenging western landscapes.
