NPS Intermountain Region AE Design 2013-2018

The National Park Service (NPS) Intermountain Region Architect-Engineering (A&E) Design 2013-2018 Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract vehicle provides comprehensive architectural and engineering design services for infrastructure projects across national parks in the Intermountain Region. The master contract enables the NPS to efficiently procure design services for a wide range of facilities and infrastructure improvements, including visitor centers, water systems, historic structure rehabilitations, electrical systems, and maintenance facilities. This contract allows for flexible, on-demand professional design services that can be quickly deployed to address critical infrastructure needs at various national park locations.

The task orders under this IDIQ consistently range from approximately $10,000 to $800,000, with most falling between $50,000 and $300,000. Frequently awarded to small businesses like Ahmb, LLC and A&E Design, Inc., the contract vehicle supports projects across multiple national parks including Grand Canyon, Rocky Mountain, Yellowstone, Glacier, and Carlsbad Caverns. The task orders primarily involve architectural and engineering services such as condition assessments, historic structure reports, schematic and design development, construction documents, and construction administration. Most task orders are firm fixed-price and do not utilize small business set-asides, though some are designated as total small business opportunities. Common project types include rehabilitating visitor centers, upgrading water and wastewater systems, addressing life safety improvements, and preserving historic structures within national park facilities.
