Air Force A-E Environmental Services 2007-2017

The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Installation and Mission Support Center Civil Engineer Center established a Master IDIQ for architect-engineer environmental services on September 4, 2007, with a shared ceiling of $50 million and a last date to order of September 19, 2017. The vehicle is no longer active; ordering closed over eight years ago.

The vehicle contracted environmental architect-engineer services for Air Force installations, with task orders spanning remedial investigations, five-year reviews under the Installation Restoration Program and Military Munitions Response Program, feasibility studies, environmental assessments, permit renewals, stormwater compliance work, and facility condition assessments across Air Force bases nationwide. Typical individual task orders ranged from under $50 thousand to approximately $4 million, with the two largest orders—a 1.4 dioxane investigation and an infiltration/inflow compliance evaluation for the west region—each valued near $4.2 million.

Three firms dominated the vehicle: Weston Solutions Inc. held 163 orders worth $36.6 million combined potential value, AECOM Technical Services, Inc. held 72 orders worth $34.3 million, and Tetra TECH Inc. held 116 orders worth $25.7 million. These three primes captured all 351 task orders. All work carried no set-aside designation.

Customer concentration was high. Air Force Education and Training Command placed 184 orders valued at $34.1 million combined potential value, and the contracting office itself (Air Force Materiel Command Installation and Mission Support Center Civil Engineer Center) placed 111 orders valued at $52.6 million. Together, these two internal Air Force customers accounted for approximately 84 percent of task orders and roughly 92 percent of obligated value. Thirteen agencies total received funding under the vehicle, though the remaining eleven represented minimal activity.

The vehicle closed with 351 task orders awarded between September 2007 and December 2018. Combined potential value reached $96.6 million, with $96.5 million obligated (100 percent of potential value). Ordering momentum declined sharply in 2017 and 2018, dropping from 36 orders in 2015 to 11 orders in 2017 and 1 order in 2018 as the ordering window approached expiration.
