About this opportunity

The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) Kansas is seeking a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) for title and closing services supporting Agricultural Conservation Easement Programs. The solicitation requires a contractor licensed to operate a title insurance business in Kansas, with technical capabilities to perform preliminary title searches, title commitments, and closing services in accordance with Department of Justice Title Standards. Contractors must demonstrate experience completing at least three conservation easement title works within the past two years. The government will evaluate proposals using a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) methodology, with technical acceptability based on meeting specific solicitation requirements. Key deadlines include contractor questions due by December 18, 2024 at 10:00 AM CT, and quote submissions due by January 10, 2025 at 10:00 AM CT.

The opportunity is a total small business set-aside under NAICS code 541191 with a size standard of $19.5 million. The BPA will have a five-year ordering period with pricing established in one-year increments, covering an estimated 9 preliminary title searches, 5-9 title commitments, and 6 closing services annually. The place of performance is Lincoln, Kansas, and the government intends to award a single firm fixed-price purchase order. Contractors must maintain liability insurance coverage equal to the federal funds for each conservation easement and complete accurate System for Award Management (SAM) representations and certifications. The estimated annual service quantities may fluctuate, providing flexibility in the contract's execution over the five-year period.
