NRCS WI Archaeological Site Assessments

The Master IDIQ for NRCS WI Archaeological Site Assessments is a federal contract vehicle focused on providing cultural resource archaeological site assessments and evaluations throughout the state of Wisconsin. The primary work involves Phase I Archaeological Field Evaluations, which include identification and evaluation of archaeological sites during the planning and design of conservation practices. These non-personal services are designed to support various environmental and conservation programs by conducting comprehensive archaeological investigations and reviews.

Task orders under this IDIQ consistently involve cultural resource archaeological site assessments for specific projects across Wisconsin, primarily supporting Environmental Quality Incentives Program (EQIP), Conservation Stewardship Program (CSP), and other conservation-related initiatives. Typical task orders range in value from approximately $2,000 to $26,000, with completion dates generally spanning 3-6 months. The majority of task orders were set aside for total small businesses, indicating a focus on supporting smaller contractors. The contracting agency is the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), and all work is geographically confined to Wisconsin. The pricing mechanism for these task orders is consistently firm fixed price, providing clear cost predictability for both the government and the contractors.
