NPS SE Region Architect Engineering IDIQ 2016-2021

The National Park Service (NPS) Southeast Region Architect Engineering Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract vehicle, established in 2016 and running through 2021, provides comprehensive architectural and engineering services for national parks, historic sites, and other NPS facilities across the Eastern United States and its territories. The contract enables the NPS to procure a wide range of design, planning, preservation, and technical services through multiple prime contractors. These services encompass schematic design, design development, construction documents, historic preservation, infrastructure rehabilitation, facilities improvements, condition assessments, and compliance documentation for various national park assets.

The task orders under this IDIQ consistently demonstrate a focus on preservation, rehabilitation, and infrastructure improvements across diverse NPS sites. Two primary prime contractors, Lord, Aeck & Sargent, Inc. and Quinn Evans Architects Inc., were awarded multiple task orders with values typically ranging from $50,000 to $1,000,000 and durations of 6-24 months. Common project types include trail rehabilitation, building preservation, HVAC and electrical system upgrades, accessibility improvements, and cultural landscape documentation. No small business set-asides were used in the awarded task orders, and performance locations spanned national parks in states like Florida, Georgia, Tennessee, South Carolina, and Virginia, as well as U.S. territories such as the U.S. Virgin Islands. The funding consistently came from the Department of the Interior's National Park Service, with projects addressing critical infrastructure, historical preservation, and visitor experience enhancement.
