About this opportunity
The Department of the Navy Naval Facilities Engineering Command issued a Justification and Approval document on March 10, 2026, authorizing a 12-month non-competitive extension to the Natural Resources (NR) Multiple Award Service Contract (MASC) covering three incumbent contractors: Vernadero Group, Inc. (N62473-20-D-0021), Gulf South Research Corporation (N62473-20-D-0022), and BioResource Consultants Inc. (N62473-20-D-0023). The extension will provide natural resources consulting services across the NAVFAC Southwest region, encompassing botanical and wildlife surveys, wetland delineations, biological monitoring, soil analysis, natural resources management plans, native plant restoration, fire management plans, and GIS analysis. The justification for using other than full and open competition relies on the incumbent contractors' rapid-execution capability, which enables task order awards within three weeks using pre-priced line items; the government determined that competitive procurement would require approximately 26+ weeks and incur substantial duplication of contracting labor costs, making the extension more cost-effective. The extension period runs through March 1, 2027, maintaining the three contractors' year five pricing under the original $60,000,000 combined contract capacity with no additional funds being added. A follow-on competitive vehicle is anticipated for award to eliminate future bridge contract requests.
