Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC), Multiple Award Task Order Contract (MATOC) for Architect-Engineering (A-E) Services for Hydrologic and Hydraulic Engineering ($49M), supporting Civil Works Projects, Sacramento District (SPK), South Pacific Division (SP

On or about 25 September 2024, the Government intends to issue an Architect-Engineering (A-E) Services synopsis (i.e. A-E solicitation) for an Unrestricted acquisition that will result in the establishment of a Multiple Award Task Order Contract (MATOC) with a shared capacity of $49,999,000.00. The Government anticipates awarding approximately four (4) Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) Contracts with a targeted pool of four (4) contractors. The MATOC will primarily support Civil Works projects for Sacramento District (SPK) and other districts within the South Pacific Division (SPD) boundaries. This MATOC will be procured in accordance with (IAW) the Selection of Architects and Engineers Statute (Public Law PL 582) and implemented following Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Subpart 36.6. Firms will be selected for negotiation based on demonstrated competence and professional qualifications for the required work. Specific needs will be determined based upon project requirements as described in each task order. Selected firms will work on a variety of projects that may include Development and evaluation of Water Control (i.e., Reservoir Regulation) Plans (WCP) for single and systems of reservoirs applying USACE risk and uncertainty analysis in varying hydrometeorological settings. Reservoir modeling for flood regulation, supply/conservation, environmental and other operational purposes, featuring flood and extreme hydrological loading conditions. Statistical analysis of hydrometeorological and forecast data ? e.g., National Weather Service (NWS) Ensemble Forecast Products, and development of statistically representative stochastic and synthetic forecast and hydrologic boundary condition inputs for reservoir modeling ? e.g., scaled hydrographs and historical or qualitatively significant runoff scenarios. Risk and uncertainty analysis of Flood Risk Management systems and projects to estimate flooding probabilities and project performance ? e.g., using Hydrologic Engineering Center Flood Damage Reduction Analysis (HEC-FDA) and Hydrologic Engineering Center Watershed Analysis Tool (HEC-WAT). Modeling of reservoir system operations and alternatives including use of Hydrologic Engineering Center Corps Water Management System (HEC-CWMS) software. Identification of critical duration of runoff volumes based on watershed and reservoir routing characteristics. Flow-frequency analysis following Water Resources Council Bulletin 17C guidelines, including regional analysis and separation of snowmelt, cloudburst, and general rainstorm floods. Rainfall-runoff modeling to develop hypothetical floods (e.g., Probable Maximum Floods (PMF)) and reproduce observed events. Development of Probable Maximum Precipitation (PMP) and Probable Maximum Floods (PMF) for dam spillway design. Development of unregulated flow from gaged flow data, inflow and diversion records, and stream-flow routings, and regulated frequency curves from regulation criteria, reservoir routings, and gaged flow data. Other hydrological engineering analyses such as flow-duration, seasonal, environmental, interior drainage, and development of evaporation, seasonal precipitation, and seasonal runoff volumes. Assessment of fluvial geomorphological conditions, sedimentation trends, sediment and debris yields, channel stability and scour potential in watersheds, streams, and drainage systems. Hydraulic analysis and multi-dimensional numerical computer and physical modeling of natural, design and constructed conditions including channels, levees, weirs, bypasses, floodplains, and complex systems. Design of hydraulic features such as dams, levees, gates, detention basin, valves, spillways, conduits, diversions, weirs, bypasses, culverts, streambank erosion countermeasures and aquatic and riparian habitats and computational fluid dynamics modeling of complex flow conditions ? e.g., using FLOW-3D software. The North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) code for this acquisition is 541330, Engineering Services, and corresponds to Standard Industrial Code (SIC) Code 8711. The small business size standard for this NAICS, as established by the U.S. Small Business Administration, is $25,500,000.00 annual revenue. The Product and Service Code (PSC) is C219, Architect and Engineering.
