Facilities Reduction Program (FRP)

The Department of the Army Corps of Engineers Engineering Support Center Huntsville awarded a multiple-award Master IDIQ for commercial demolition services supporting the Facilities Reduction Program on April 19, 2021, with a shared ceiling of $95 million and ordering authority expiring October 19, 2026—approximately three months from now.

This vehicle is functionally dormant. The most recent task order award was September 30, 2024, nearly two years ago. Activity has declined sharply: seven orders were placed in the award year (2021), one in 2023, and three in 2024. The 11 total task orders across the vehicle's five-year life represent only $5.9 million in combined potential value, with $5 million obligated, leaving the vast majority of the shared ceiling untouched. Orders are firm fixed price demolition projects at specific domestic locations (Albany, Upper Marlboro, Fort Devens, East Windsor, and NASA Goddard), each typically in the $600 thousand to $1.6 million range. Six primes have been awarded; Envirovantage, Inc. dominates with four orders and $3.6 million combined potential value, while Neuber Environmental Service Inc. and Ritz Construction Inc. each hold two orders. The remaining three primes collectively represent $6 thousand.

Work has been split between two Army Corps customer organizations: Engineering Support Center Huntsville holds eight orders worth $1.6 million combined potential value, while Engineering and Support Center holds three orders valued at $4.3 million combined. No set-asides were used across any of the 11 awards.

The vehicle replaced an earlier generation Facilities Reduction Program contract and was structured with a two-year base and three one-year option periods. The original market research estimated $475 million total contract value, but actual task-order activity suggests substantially lower government demand for this vehicle. With fewer than three months of ordering authority remaining and minimal recent ordering velocity, new entrants should prioritize pursuing work on successor vehicles if the program continues.
