Chesapeake Bay Watershed - "America at 250" Worksh

The National Park Service Northeast Region is seeking Workshop Development and Facilitation Services for the Chesapeake Bay Watershed "America at 250" initiative to support planning for the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence. The contractor will develop and facilitate one introductory webinar, three identical day-long workshops in Annapolis MD, York County PA, and Westmoreland County VA, and one closing webinar to help communities celebrate their nationally significant histories and develop heritage tourism initiatives. Key requirements include coordinating workshop invitations and registrations, generating a comprehensive written report with findings and recommendations, and providing a Principal/Project Manager as the primary point of contact with NPS representatives. The government will evaluate proposals based on technical capability, past performance, and price, with all non-price factors considered equal to price, and will award to the lowest-priced, technically acceptable offeror. The original submission deadline was September 10, 2025, but has been extended to September 17, 2025 at 12:00 PM ET.

This opportunity is set aside for Woman-Owned Small Businesses under NAICS code 611710 with a size standard of $24 million, and the incumbent contractor is identified as "Every Museum a Civic Museum." The government anticipates awarding a single Firm-Fixed-Price Purchase Order with a 140-day performance period from September 15, 2025 to January 26, 2026, though the Statement of Work indicates completion by January 31, 2026. Each workshop is expected to accommodate 30 participants while the introductory and closing webinars will each serve 100 participants, with workshops designed to provide one day of instruction (8 hours) though contractors have flexibility to use two days for travel, setup, or instruction in coordination with NPS staff. The primary place of performance is Cape St Claire, MD 21401, with additional workshop locations in Pennsylvania and Virginia as part of the broader Chesapeake Bay watershed region.
