Annapolis and Loudon Park National Cemeteries are in need of Grounds maintenance.

This Special Notice, posted on November 13, 2025, concerns the cancellation of a contract award for grounds maintenance services at Annapolis and Loudon Park National Cemeteries. The Department of Veterans Affairs National Cemetery Administration issued this modification following a contract protest and subsequent government reassessment of the requirement. The original contract with Glory to the Lord Investments Inc was terminated effective September 15, 2025, under FAR 52.249-4 (Termination for Convenience of the Government). A protest submitted by Hangar 4 Services on September 2, 2025, was dismissed by the Government Accountability Office on September 30, 2025. The Contracting Officer, Joselito Roman, signed the modification on October 2, 2025. This announcement notifies the contractor community of the contract cancellation and associated changes to the procurement landscape.

The purpose of this modification is to formally cancel the current contract award due to the government's reassessment of the grounds maintenance requirement. Since the terminated awardee administered no services or mobilization efforts under the contract, the government anticipates no liability for any costs claimed by the awardee; however, any Request for Equitable Adjustment submitted will be reviewed accordingly. This opportunity remains set aside for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses and falls under the Landscaping Services NAICS category (561730) and Housekeeping-Landscaping/Groundskeeping PSC (S208). The cancellation opens the possibility for future re-solicitation of the grounds maintenance services requirement. Interested contractors should monitor updates from the Department of Veterans Affairs National Cemetery Administration for any subsequent procurement actions related to these cemetery maintenance needs.
