Indefinite Delivery Contract 140R8121D0012

The Department of the Interior Bureau of Reclamation awarded an indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity contract to HDR Schnabel Reclamation Joint Venture to provide engineering and technical services across Reclamation's 17-state region and potentially other areas. The contract establishes a blanket purchase agreement valued at a minimum of $3,000 under which delivery orders can be issued through September 2026 for services such as project planning, design, construction management, and operations and maintenance support. Against this vehicle, the Bureau of Reclamation has issued multiple delivery orders to the prime contractor for work including seismic studies, dam rehabilitation, cost estimating guides, and construction activities. Task orders have a combined potential value of $45M and involve places of performance in Colorado, Utah, and Oklahoma. Services procured aim to support the Bureau of Reclamation's mission to manage water and power infrastructure in the western United States through initiatives ensuring dam safety and structural integrity, upgrading facilities, and maintaining reliable water delivery.

The Bureau of Reclamation originally solicited proposals for the indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity contract through a January 2021 special notice. The notice sought engineering and professional services firms to establish multiple award contracts to fulfill five-year requirements for tasks such as engineering, construction management, cost estimating, and inspections. The solicitation established a March 2021 response deadline, required the Standard Form 330 proposal format, and outlined evaluation criteria including qualifications, experience, past performance, and quality control. Firms would support Bureau of Reclamation initiatives throughout its region and potentially other locations with individual task order periods of performance up to five years.
