Multi-Discipline Architect-Engineer Services - Seattle District

The Department of the Army Corps of Engineers Engineering District Seattle awarded this eight-prime multiple-award Master IDIQ for multi-discipline architect-engineer services on July 27, 2021, with authority to place orders through July 26, 2028—approximately two years of ordering time remaining. The vehicle carries a combined $85.6 million potential value across 47 task orders, of which $72.6 million (85 percent) is obligated. Orders are open to all business sizes without set-asides; one task order was awarded as small-business set-aside, with the remaining 46 unrestricted.

Work performed spans project management, architectural, civil, mechanical, electrical, structural, and landscape design across Washington, Idaho, and Montana. Recent task orders illustrate the scope: seismic upgrades at VA American Lake in Tacoma, sanitary and water system repair designs at Minuteman Village, design support during construction of consolidated rigging facilities at Joint Base Lewis-McChord, and facility repairs across JBLM buildings. Work includes both DoD and non-DoD projects.

Ordering velocity has declined sharply. The vehicle opened with 21 orders in 2022 and 17 in 2023, but fell to 5 orders in 2024 and only 2 each in 2025 and 2026. The most recent award was March 4, 2026.

Competition among the eight primes is concentrated. Burns & Mcdonnell Engineering Company, Inc. holds 7 orders worth $25.7 million (30 percent of combined potential value), followed by Jacobs Engineering Group Inc. and WSP USA Solutions Inc. at $14.1 million and $11.9 million respectively. Raymond Pond Full Service Solutions JV LLC leads by order count with 11 awards but $8.3 million combined value. These five firms capture 81 percent of potential value; the remaining three primes share the tail.

Customer concentration is extreme: the Department of the Army Corps of Engineers Engineering District Seattle funded 38 of 47 orders totaling $69.4 million—approximately 81 percent of the portfolio. Subordinate Army Corps offices and Air Force units account for the remainder.

Task-order values range from under $150,000 to $11.6 million in potential value, with typical awards between $1 million and $6 million. Firm-fixed-price pricing dominates. Typical durations extend 18 to 48 months from award.

The IDIQ A-E services work will include task orders for A-E design services relating to multi-disciplinary engineering and design work. Services will include project management, architectural, landscaping, civil, mechanical, electrical, structural, and all other necessary engineering and design specialties related to the assigned USACE missions.
