Timely delivery of airboat services is crucial to the success of NRCS programs. Call orders are to be completed as stipulated in each call. If the contractor is unable to provide the airboat services in the timeframe identified in the call order, NRCS is to be notified; otherwise, it is expected to receive the service as requested. PERIOD OF PERFORMANCE: Airboat services are being sought for a period of five years with a contract period of September 1, 2019 to August 30, 2024. The BPA will remain in effect until cancelled by either party.
