Grounds & Landscaping Contracts in New Jersey

Federal grounds maintenance and landscaping in New Jersey covers mowing, tree work, snow removal and landscaping at VA medical centers and national cemeteries, military installations, national parks and forests, and Corps of Engineers recreation areas.

Much of this work is seasonal or priced per acre or per occurrence, and many notices are small business or SDVOSB set-asides. VA's National Cemetery Administration is a steady buyer. Most of these are service contracts covered by the Service Contract Act, so bids must meet the wage determination attached to the notice for the county where the work is performed.

Read the performance work statement closely for service frequencies, equipment requirements and response times, since those drive pricing more than acreage alone. Many awards run a base year plus option years, so strong first-year performance sets up the renewals.
