A&E Services Bureau of Engraving and Printing

The Department of the Treasury Bureau of Engraving and Printing established this Architecture and Engineering Services Master IDIQ on June 29, 2009, with a shared ceiling of $15 million and a last date to order of February 10, 2016—a deadline that has now passed, making the vehicle closed to new task orders as of February 2016. This is a fully small-business set-aside vehicle; all 19 awarded task orders carry Total Small Business designations.

Ordering activity peaked in 2014, when the Bureau awarded 10 orders, but has closed entirely since March 2015. The vehicle obligated its full combined potential value of $879 thousand across 19 task orders over a span of roughly five years. M E P Consulting Engineers and Brave / Architecture Inc. split the work evenly by order count and potential value—11 orders and $468 thousand for M E P, 8 orders and $411 thousand for Brave / Architecture—leaving no long tail. All orders funded Bureau of Engraving and Printing programs, primarily at the Western Currency Facility in Fort Worth, Texas.

Task orders ranged from under $9 thousand to roughly $89 thousand, with firm fixed pricing throughout. Representative scopes include HVAC design services, fire protection surveys, electrical circuit mapping, boiler replacement design, facility systems engineering (nickel tank exhaust, shredded waste systems, waste laundry facility improvements), LED conversion studies, and structural analysis. Performance periods typically spanned 6 to 12 months from award. The final order was placed in March 2015, with completion dates extending into 2016.

This vehicle is no longer viable for new pursuit; the ordering deadline closed in February 2016. The narrow focus on Bureau of Engraving and Printing facilities, the small dollar envelope, the even split between two incumbents, and the complete obligaton of available funds make this a closed-out vehicle with no remaining opportunity.
