AVSO Land Appraisal Kvichak South Naknek(KSN_25_1)

The Department of the Interior's Appraisal and Valuation Services Office (AVSO) is seeking land appraisal services for Native Allotment properties in the Kvichak South Naknek (KSN_25_1) case located in the Seward Meridian, Alaska. The solicitation requires a Certified General Appraiser to conduct two separate appraisal reports for these properties, with contractors needing to hold a valid Alaska Certified General Appraiser license and demonstrate experience with similar properties. Qualified vendors must provide past performance references and submit firm-fixed price quotes as part of their proposals. The government will evaluate proposals using a Best Value/Trade-Off approach, where technical qualifications and past performance are weighted more heavily than price considerations. All quotes must be submitted by 3:00 PM Mountain Time on July 24, 2025, providing contractors with only six days from the posting date to prepare their responses.

This opportunity is designated as a 100% small business set-aside under NAICS code 531320 for "Offices of Real Estate Appraisers" and falls under Product Service Code R411 for professional real property appraisal support services. The contract establishes a performance period of 285 calendar days from the purchase order award, with an initial appraisal target completion date of 120 calendar days from award. The work will be performed in Alaska, specifically involving properties within the Seward Meridian boundary system. No incumbent contractor information or specific budget ranges are disclosed in the solicitation documents. The relatively tight timeline suggests the government has an urgent need for these appraisal services, likely related to federal land management or Native American land rights issues in the Alaska region.
