Rapid Disaster Infrastructure 2019

The Department of the Army Corps of Engineers Engineering District Omaha established this Master IDIQ on May 6, 2019, for time-sensitive disaster, infrastructure, and construction-related work across the United States. The vehicle carried a total small business set-aside at award. Ordering closed on May 5, 2024, and the vehicle is no longer accepting new task orders.

The IDIQ's shared ceiling was $95 million. Nine task orders have been awarded with a combined potential value of $99.2 million, which exceeds the ceiling; $99.2 million has been obligated (100% of combined potential value). Task-order awards show uneven pacing: one order in 2020, one in 2021, two in 2022, one in 2023, and two in 2024. The most recent order was issued September 16, 2024. Work scopes include levee repairs in California and Texas, embankment repairs, water-pump replacements at military installations, drainage structure repairs, and alternate care facilities. Nearly all work is priced as cost plus fixed fee.

Competitive concentration is extremely high. Ie-Weston Federal Services JVB LLC holds 7 of 9 orders worth $87.5 million combined potential value; Ahtna-Cdm JV holds the remaining 2 orders worth $11.7 million. Customer concentration is similarly narrow: the Department of the Army Corps of Engineers Engineering District Omaha (the awarding office itself) placed 7 orders for $96.2 million, Federal Emergency Management Agency Region 8 placed 1 order for $2.6 million, and the Department of the Army Corps of Engineers Engineering District Sacramento placed 1 order for $427 thousand. Set-aside execution diverged significantly from the vehicle's small business designation: 78% of orders (7 of 9) carry no set-aside, while only 11% (1 of 9) are total small business and 11% (1 of 9) are partial small business. Task-order ceilings range from approximately $427 thousand to $44.6 million, with typical values between $2.5 million and $14.4 million. Since the last-date-to-order has passed, this vehicle is closed to new pursuit.

This Rapid Disaster Infrastructure (RDI) Master IDIQ allows for a full range of time-sensitive disaster, infrastructure, and construction related scopes of work to support federally funded customers. Projects may vary in size, complexity, and location, and will require a high degree of flexibility and adaptability. Examples include Flood Recovery, Infrastructure Recovery, Emergency Management, and Military construction needs.
