Architect-Engineer Design Services in Support of the B-21 Bed Down

The Architect-Engineer Design Services in Support of the B-21 Bed Down is a $200 million master Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract issued by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to support architectural and engineering design services for the B-21 Raider bomber program. The contract vehicle enables multiple prime contractors to provide comprehensive design services for facilities and infrastructure related to the B-21 bomber's operational bases, including design for maintenance hangars, training facilities, weapons systems infrastructure, and support buildings. This multiple-award contract allows for rapid and flexible procurement of architectural and engineering services across various Air Force bases preparing to host the B-21 Raider.

The task orders under this contract typically range from $250,000 to $11 million, with periods of performance spanning 12-48 months. Three primary prime contractors have been consistently awarded task orders: Jacobs Engineering Group Inc., Burns & McDonnell Engineering Company, Inc., and FSB - Pond Joint Venture. The majority of task orders focus on specific facility design elements such as flight simulator facilities, weapons loading training infrastructures, maintenance hangars, and site utilities. Most task orders are firm fixed-price delivery orders and do not utilize specific small business set-asides. The primary funding agencies include the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Air Force Civil Engineer Center, and Air Force Sustainment Center, with performance locations predominantly at Air Force bases in Missouri, South Dakota, and Texas, supporting the B-21 Raider bomber program's infrastructure development.
