About this vehicle

The Department of Agriculture Forest Service R8-Southern Region established this Master IDIQ on February 18, 2016, for archaeological survey services on Ouachita National Forest lands in Arkansas and Oklahoma. The ordering period closed on December 31, 2020; no further task orders may be issued.

The vehicle is fully obligated and inactive. All $1.7 million in combined potential value across 30 task orders has been spent. The most recent delivery order was issued in June 2020, more than five years ago. Ordering velocity peaked in 2017 with 13 orders, then declined sharply to 3 orders in 2018 and 2 in 2019 before recovering slightly to 5 in the final year.

Awarded work focused exclusively on archaeological survey—tract and linear surveys, site evaluation, and supporting documentation—across multiple ranger districts on the forest. Typical delivery order ceilings ranged from $11,800 to $94,640, with most falling between $40,000 and $85,000. Firm fixed pricing governed all awards. The Forest Service was the sole customer.

Competition was fragmented among five primes. American Resources Group LTD led with 11 orders totaling $583 thousand in potential value, followed by William Self Associates, Inc., with 10 orders and $527 thousand, and Judy Cooper with 6 orders and $497 thousand. These three firms captured approximately 87 percent of the vehicle's activity; Amaterra Environmental and Desert West Environmental split the remainder.

The set-aside mix was evenly split: 15 orders (50 percent) were small-business set-asides and 15 were unrestricted. No other set-aside categories were used.
