About this vehicle

The Federal Highway Administration established this Master IDIQ on January 19, 2023, to conduct advanced operations research and development at the Infrastructure Materials Laboratories (IML) housed at the Turner-Fairbank Highway Research Center. Ordering authority remains open through January 18, 2028, providing approximately 18 months of remaining procurement window. The vehicle carries a shared ceiling of $48 million.

Task-order activity shows steady momentum. The portfolio spans 13 orders since award, with six orders placed in 2026 alone, indicating sustained demand. Combined task-order potential value stands at $44 million, with $20.4 million obligated to date—46 percent of the ceiling. The most recent award, issued June 16, 2026, supports Aggregate Petrography Laboratory operations.

Actual spending concentrates on laboratory-specific support services: Asphalt Binder and Mixtures, Aggregates and Petrography, Chemistry, Coatings and Corrosion, Concrete, and Pavement Testing. Task orders run one to two years with firm-fixed-price and cost-plus-fixed-fee structures. Recent orders range from approximately $542 thousand to $5 million in ceiling value.

Competition among primes is relatively balanced. Genex Systems, LLC holds five orders valued at $22.8 million combined potential; SES Group & Associates, LLC (the original incumbent) holds six orders valued at $20.6 million combined potential. Hptech, Inc. rounds out the field with two orders totaling $642 thousand. All customer orders flow exclusively through FHWA.

Set-aside distribution reflects a majority small-business posture: nine of 13 orders (69 percent) carry Total Small Business designation, with the remainder unrestricted. Recent 2026 awards are predominantly small-business set-asides, while initial 2023 orders mixed set-aside and unrestricted awards.

Description

Conduct advanced IML operations research and development projects and tasks in support of the FHWA mission and activities, as needed on a Task Order basis. Infrastructure Materials Research laboratories are located at the Turner-Fairbank Highway Research Center (TFHRC)
