About this vehicle
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Portland District established a multiple-award Master IDIQ for biological and ecological studies on September 17, 2019, with a shared ceiling of $40 million, but ordering closed on September 16, 2024, making this vehicle inactive for new task orders. The vehicle is no longer available for pursuit.
At closure, 16 task orders totaling $23.2 million in combined potential value had been awarded, with $21.8 million obligated (94% of the combined potential value). The work encompasses studies of fish, birds, and other organisms, including literature reviews, study planning and execution, experimental design development, data collection, analysis, and management across the Portland, Walla Walla, and Seattle Districts. Recent orders illustrate the focus: rotary screw trap sampling for Willamette Valley fish passage monitoring, Green Peter Dam spawning surveys, and Lower Columbia River estuary studies. Task orders were firm fixed price with typical durations ranging from under one year to multi-year engagements.
S.P. Cramer & Associates, Inc. dominated the prime contractor base, holding six orders worth $15.1 million combined potential value—roughly 65% of all task-order activity. Environmental Assessment Services, LLC captured three orders valued at $7.8 million; Real Time Research, Inc. and Four Peaks Environmental Science & Data Solutions LLC each held three smaller orders. Five distinct primes shared the work overall.
The ordering pattern declined sharply in the vehicle's final years: six orders in 2019, four in 2021, two in 2022, three in 2023, and one in 2024. The Army Corps of Engineers placed all substantive orders; set-aside designations split roughly 63% unrestricted and 38% small business total, with small-business set-asides representing most higher-value orders. The work was regionally concentrated in the Pacific Northwest, serving Portland District requirements and subordinate district operations at Walla Walla and Seattle. Because the ordering period has closed, no new task orders will be issued against this vehicle.
Description
Studies of behavior, physiology, ecology, injury rates, survival rates, abundance, and population dynamics of fish, birds, and/or other organisms. Components of the work may include literature reviews, study planning and execution, experimental design development, research in the field or elsewhere to collect data, data analysis, and data management.
