National Park Service

United States of America

    Serving the NPS

Under a multi-year “Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity” contract, Smith Dalia Architects has been privileged to work with the National Park Service in some of the Nation’s most beautiful and historic natural areas, including three UNESCO World Heritage Sites.

SDA also serves other federal, state and municipal clients for designs in the public realm. By strategically assembling the IDIQ Team, wide-reaching services were available via the more personable delivery of a small business.
