A -- Long Term Pavement Performance Technical Support Services Contract

The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) plans to extend its existing contract with MACTEC Engineering and Consulting, Inc., located in Beltsville, Maryland, to continue providing specialized pavement and traffic engineering technical support for the FHWA’s Long Term Pavement Performance Program (LTPP). This extension covers the period from July 1, 2007, through September 30, 2009, and is structured as a no-cost time extension to the current contract, which is set to expire on July 1, 2007. Importantly, this modification will not increase the contract’s monetary value but will ensure continuity of the technical services essential to the LTPP. The contract, identified under solicitation number Reference-Number-LTPPTSSC and aligned with the NAICS code 541330, is administered by the Acquisition and Grants Management office of the Department of Transportation located in Washington, DC. The focus of the contract remains on technical support for pavement performance data collection and analysis, vital to the long-term infrastructure planning and maintenance efforts carried out by the FHWA. This sole source modification emphasizes maintaining the existing partnership and expertise without introducing competitive procurement, streamlining program support during the extended period.
