Multiple Award Task Order Construction Contracts (MATOC) at Tobyhanna Army Depot

This upcoming procurement outlines a Multiple Award Task Order Contract (MATOC) structured as an Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract exclusively set aside for small businesses under NAICS code 236220, focusing on commercial and institutional building construction. The contract aims to provide comprehensive minor construction services at Tobyhanna Army Depot (TYAD) in Pennsylvania, encompassing maintenance, alterations, repairs, emergency construction response, asbestos and lead paint abatement, incidental engineering design-build tasks, and full-range support including site investigations, surveys, and preparation of construction and as-built drawings. The total magnitude of construction is estimated between $100 million and $250 million, with solicitations expected to be issued around late January 2026. Only businesses registered in SAM.gov and qualifying as small under the specified NAICS standard are eligible to participate. The ordering period is projected for five years from September 2026 through September 2031, involving various task orders that may be design-build or design-bid-build projects requiring a 24-hour emergency response capability. Contractual and administrative requirements emphasize strict compliance with security protocols, including security clearances, threat awareness, insider threat programs, operations security (OPSEC), information security, COMSEC, and safeguarding of Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI). Contractor personnel must obtain and maintain access credentials such as common access cards and installation badges, with rigorous reporting and handling procedures for sensitive information. Special contract conditions require adherence to a detailed installation design guide and master specifications that cover a wide range of disciplines from general requirements to electrical, HVAC, fire suppression, and exterior improvements. Packaging and preservation standards mandate protection against weather and damage, proper labeling, and compliance with referenced MIL-STDs and NFPA codes. Inspection and acceptance are destination-focused at the project site with strict quality criteria enforced through performance testing and government oversight. Proposal submission procedures, although not finalized, include detailed submittal formats, hard copy and electronic media requirements, and industry engagement through a presolicitation industry day held in September 2025. While no specific FAR or evaluation clauses were disclosed, performance-based factors appear to guide award decisions, emphasizing technical compliance with quality thresholds and small business participation as the basis for the contract award.
