About this vehicle
The Department of Agriculture Office of Procurement and Property Management established this Master BPA on February 24, 2023, with a shared ceiling of $99 million and ordering authority through February 23, 2028. Ordering authority expires in approximately 19 months, leaving a narrow window for new task-order awards under the vehicle.
Activity has been minimal since establishment. Only two task orders have been awarded, both in September 2023, with no orders placed in the subsequent three years. These two orders have obligated the full $29.7 million in combined potential value, leaving no unobligated capacity within the vehicle's stated combined task-order potential value. However, the $99 million shared ceiling suggests additional ordering capacity exists if contracting officers authorize incremental calls.
The scope centers on environmental and technical support services tied to USDA rural development programs. The awarded orders target environmental review support for the Inflation Reduction Act under Rural Utilities Service and technical assistance for Rural Business-Cooperative Service programs (REAP and HBIIP). Pricing has been mixed: one order is Labor Hours, the other Firm Fixed Price.
Competition is equally split. Solv LLC holds one order valued at $18.2 million, and Sundance Consultants, LLC holds one order valued at $11.5 million. No other primes have been awarded. Both orders are unrestricted (no set-aside designations applied). Customer concentration is limited to two USDA offices: Rural Utilities Service funded the larger order, and Rural Business-Cooperative Service funded the smaller.
The near-term outlook is constrained. One awarded order (the Rural Business-Cooperative Service task) completed on July 10, 2026, with performance extensions already exhausted. The second order to Rural Utilities Service carries an ultimate completion date of February 11, 2028, aligned closely with the Master BPA's ordering deadline. The absence of new task orders for three years and the minimal combined task-order value relative to the $99 million shared ceiling suggest limited recent customer demand or contracting appetite under this vehicle.
