PBS Region 5 Architectural Engineering Services 2016-2021

The General Services Administration Public Buildings Service Region 5 awarded this architectural and engineering services IDIQ on November 2, 2016, with a shared ceiling of $12.5 million and a last date to order of November 22, 2019—ordering closed over six years ago. This vehicle is no longer active; no new task orders may be placed against it. The 187 task orders issued under this vehicle before the ordering deadline generated $16.5 million in obligations against a combined potential value of $17.1 million, representing 97 percent utilization. The most recent task order award occurred in May 2022, reflecting carryover work under orders already placed during the active ordering window. Annual ordering peaked at 40–41 orders per year in 2018–2019, then declined to 15 orders by 2022 as the vehicle wound down.

Work contracted spans architectural and engineering design services for federal real property in Illinois, including feasibility studies, design documentation, construction administration, and post-construction services for building system upgrades, renovations, structural repairs, and mechanical and life-safety improvements. Representative recent task orders cover dry sprinkler system studies, emergency exit door design, mechanical piping surveys, building automation system upgrades, envelope and facade repairs, and equipment replacement design at major federal facilities in the Chicago area, including the John C. Kluczynski Federal Building, Everett M. Dirksen Courthouse, and Harold Washington Social Security Administration Center.

Wold Architects Incorporated leads by potential value with $5.6 million across 46 orders, followed by Bailey Edward Design, Inc. at $4.1 million across 40 orders and Enercon LTD at $3.8 million across 54 orders. KOO LLC and Urban Works, LTD complete the field with $2.7 million and $871 thousand respectively. The General Services Administration Public Buildings Service Region 5 itself placed 122 orders worth $12.3 million—72 percent of the vehicle's total volume—while the Social Security Administration, Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts, and Customs and Border Protection accounted for smaller shares. Eighty-nine percent of task orders carried no set-aside designation; small business set-asides (either partial or total) represented six percent and five percent respectively. Task order values ranged from under $10 thousand to over $500 thousand, with typical design awards in the $50 thousand to $250 thousand band. Work performance centered on federal facilities throughout Illinois, predominantly in Chicago.
