The procurement is structured as an Indefinite-Delivery Indefinite-Quantity (IDIQ) contract with a base period of five years from December 1, 2026, through November 30, 2031, and includes a single six-month option period extending through May 31, 2032. The contract will support the National Water Quality Laboratory, Earth System Processes Division, and other entities within the Water Mission Area across 16 major functional areas including research, data management, laboratory services, instrumentation support, warehouse operations, and quality assurance. Offerors must submit fully burdened hourly labor rates for all categories across the full 5.5-year performance period using Attachment 2, a 31-tab Excel pricing schedule, and must comply with Department of Labor wage determinations.
