The project is funded through State of Hawaii capital improvement appropriations for cemetery maintenance and improvements; specific budget or award values are not disclosed in the available procurement documents, with contract award to be made to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. No incumbent contractor is referenced, indicating this represents a new project or competitive rebidding.
