Appraisal services: Grand Teton National Park (GRT

The Department of the Interior's Appraisal and Valuation Services Office (AVSO) is soliciting market valuation and appraisal services for a land exchange involving Grand Teton National Park. The procurement requires an appraiser to conduct two simultaneous appraisals for a 2.05-acre land exchange between the National Park Service and Granite Canyon LLC, covering Tracts 02-103 (federal tract) and 02-104 (private tract) under AVIS Project Numbers P250071 and P250070. Key requirements include holding a current Certified General Appraiser license, providing verifiable appraisal experience, and conforming to Uniform Appraisal Standards for Federal Land Acquisitions (UASFLA). The evaluation will be based on technical qualifications, past performance, delivery, and price, with technical factors weighted more heavily than cost considerations. Quotes are due by 5:00 PM Eastern Time on September 19, 2025, making this a time-sensitive procurement opportunity.

This solicitation is designated as a 100% Total Small Business Set-Aside under NAICS Code 531320 for "Offices of Real Estate Appraisers," despite the main opportunity description indicating "No Set-Aside Used." The contract is anticipated to be structured as a firm-fixed price agreement with a target performance period of 130 calendar days from purchase order award. The initial appraisal deliverable has a target completion date of 90 calendar days from contract award, providing contractors with specific timeline expectations for project milestones. The place of performance involves the Grand Teton National Park area in Wyoming, where the land exchange properties are located. No incumbent contractors or specific award values were identified in the solicitation materials, though the specialized nature of federal land appraisal services suggests this is a niche market opportunity for qualified real estate appraisers.
