Unrestricted A-E IDIQ Contract for Geotechnical Services in NWS

This IDIQ A-E acquisition includes geotechnical-related services primarily for large-scale civil works projects (dams, levees, etc.) requiring significant specialized experience, capabilities, and capacity. The secondary use is for larger or complex military, Interagency and International Services (IIS), and civil works projects. Recurring requirements come from a variety of sources for military programs, Interagency and International Services (IIS), civil works, environmental, and USACE operating projects. DoD, IIS, and in-house USACE design projects are also frequently funded as stand-alone A-E geotechnical investigations of new properties (foundations) or damaged sites (slide zones, soil subsidence, or jacking of structures), which require services from a highly qualified geotechnical A-E firm. These are usually not part of a complete facility design, such as MILCON projects, and may occur at any phase of project execution. NWS task orders under the geotechnical services contract are for specialized geotechnical, seismic, and investigative expertise provided by licensed professional geotechnical engineers, geologists, hydrogeologists, and hydrologists. The work includes the exploration, geologic mapping, sampling, testing, design, and analyses of embankments, foundations for structures and similar facilities, blast design, design and evaluation of tunnels, geophysical exploration, and rock mechanics investigations for one or more project phases, and other services as required by the Government.
