NOAA Shoreline Mapping 2014-2019

The NOAA Shoreline Mapping 2014-2019 Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract vehicle is a comprehensive geospatial mapping and data collection contract designed to support the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's (NOAA) coastal and marine mapping programs. The contract primarily focuses on shoreline mapping, light detection and ranging (LiDAR) data acquisition, digital elevation modeling, and related geospatial services across various coastal regions of the United States. Through this master contract, NOAA can efficiently task prime contractors with specialized mapping and data collection projects to support coastal management, environmental monitoring, and disaster response efforts.

The task orders under this IDIQ consistently demonstrate a focus on high-precision geospatial services, with contract values typically ranging from approximately $100,000 to $9.5 million. The prime contractors most frequently awarded task orders include NV5 Geospatial, Dewberry Engineers Inc., and Fugro Earthdata, Inc. These contractors have performed work across multiple states, including Florida, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Alaska, and various island territories. Many task orders were funded through disaster relief appropriations, supporting post-hurricane mapping and coastal restoration efforts. Notably, none of the task orders utilized socioeconomic set-aside designations, and the work was predominantly performed on a firm fixed-price basis. The contract's performance periods typically ranged from several months to two to three years, with most task orders focusing on specific geographic regions or specialized mapping techniques.
