NOAA Shoreline Mapping 2014-2019

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) awarded a Master IDIQ for shoreline mapping on January 21, 2014, with a final ordering deadline of July 19, 2019 — this vehicle is closed and no longer accepting task orders. The combined potential value across 51 task orders is $51.9 million, with $51.4 million obligated (99% of ceiling), indicating the vehicle has been substantially drawn down.

Work contracted under this vehicle centers on coastal survey services: lidar collection and processing, bathymetric and topographic data acquisition, shoreline mapping compilation and product generation, and airborne gravity data collection (GRAV-D missions). Representative task orders include lidar collection in the Carolinas and Florida ($9.5 million and $6.8 million respectively), shoreline mapping in the Chesapeake Bay region, and post-disaster mapping following Hurricanes Harvey, Irma, Maria, and Typhoon Yutu. The scope spans the U.S. mainland, Alaska, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and Guam.

NV5 Geospatial dominates the vehicle with 15 orders totaling $30.9 million in potential value—roughly 60% of the combined portfolio. Dewberry Engineers and Dewberry Consultants together hold an additional 27 orders ($18.5 million), and Fugro Earthdata holds 8 orders ($2.3 million). The vehicle is entirely concentrated with a single customer: NOAA's National Ocean Service National Geodetic Survey accounts for all 51 orders. All awards are unrestricted—no set-asides apply.

Ordering activity peaked in 2019 with 10 awards before declining sharply in 2020 (2 awards), reflecting the vehicle's final year of operation. Typical task-order values range from under $100 thousand for specialized studies to $9.5 million for large-scale lidar acquisition campaigns. All awards are firm-fixed-price delivery orders with durations typically between 12 and 24 months from award to completion.

This vehicle is no longer active for new pursuits.
