SAM. gov Posting Notice of Intent

The Department of the Interior's Bureau of Indian Affairs Public Investment Management Asset Agency has published a Notice of Intent for a sole source procurement to continue two part-time contractor positions supporting Indian lands within the Gila River and Ak-Chin Indian Communities. The agency seeks a Realty Specialist and an Environmental Coordinator, each working approximately 30 hours per week, to provide technical guidance and support services. The procurement is structured as a firm fixed-price purchase order with a performance period from October 1, 2025, to September 30, 2026. The solicitation (DOIDFBO250067) is unrestricted but intended to be sole-sourced to LDSS, Inc., based on their unique qualifications including local Phoenix area presence and extensive experience with the specific Indian communities and PIMA operations. This procurement represents a short-term solution following the dissolution of the Federal Consulting Group in March 2025.

The primary objective of this Notice of Intent is to provide advance notification of the agency's intent to conduct a sole source procurement for specialized realty and environmental consulting services. Potential vendors interested in submitting quotations must respond by email to Samantha_davis@ibc.doi.gov no later than September 5, 2025, at 1:00 PM Eastern Time, with the anticipated award date set for September 20, 2025. While the solicitation is technically unrestricted, the agency has identified LDSS, Inc. as the preferred contractor due to their unique qualifications, including local presence in the Phoenix area, specific knowledge of the Gila River and Ak-Chin Indian Communities, previous PIMA experience, and extensive realty and environmental expertise. The procurement falls under NAICS code 541620 for Environmental Consulting Services and represents the agency's effort to maintain continuity of critical technical support services for Indian land management operations. This initiative ensures continued professional guidance for realty and environmental matters affecting these specific tribal communities during the upcoming fiscal year.
