About this vehicle
The Environmental Protection Agency Office for Water awarded this Master IDIQ on September 28, 2012, with a shared ceiling of $107.8 million and a final ordering date of September 27, 2017—now closed. This vehicle has been succeeded by EPA Assessment and Watershed Protection II, awarded August 4, 2017.
The vehicle contracted technical support for watershed assessment, Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) development, water-quality monitoring, and related environmental modeling across a broad geographic scope. Task orders span nitrogen and nutrient criteria development, TMDL midpoint assessments for major river systems including the Chesapeake Bay and Mississippi River, drinking-water source protection mapping, stormwater engineering support, and data systems enhancement (ATTAINS, STORET/WQX). Geographic concentration is significant: orders funded work in the Chesapeake Bay region, Alaska, Idaho, Oregon, Washington, the Great Lakes, the Mississippi River basin, Florida, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands, with regional EPA offices issuing task orders alongside the central Office for Water.
Activity has closed; the most recent task order was awarded June 14, 2017. Ordering momentum declined sharply in the vehicle's final years, from 26 orders in 2013 to just one in 2017. Of 52 total task orders, 33 were placed by EPA's Office for Water, with the remainder distributed among EPA Regions 2, 3, and 10 and the Office of Research and Development. All orders were unrestricted (no set-aside designations).
Competition is highly concentrated. Tetra Tech, Inc. holds 44 percent of awarded orders by count (23 of 52) and 60 percent of combined potential value ($23.3 million of $38.5 million). Research Triangle Institute is the second-largest prime with 12 orders and $12 million in combined potential value. The Cadmus Group LLC, Michael Baker International, Inc., and ABT Global LLC account for the remainder. Of the $38.5 million in combined potential value across all task orders, $31.4 million (82 percent) has been obligated.
Task orders were typically cost-plus-fixed-fee vehicles with durations ranging from several months to multiple years. Notable large orders include Nutrient Scientific Technical Exchange Partnership System (N-STEPS) at $7.45 million potential value, Chesapeake Bay TMDL support at $5.64 million, and ATTAINS system support at $4.5 million. Representative smaller orders ranged from tens of thousands to a few hundred thousand dollars. The vehicle is now expired and unavailable for new pursuit; past performance on this IDIQ may be relevant to competing under Assessment and Watershed Protection II.
