SLSDC Architect Engineer Services 2016-2021

The Saint Lawrence Seaway Development Corporation established a Master IDIQ for architect/engineer services supporting facility maintenance and improvement projects in Massena, New York, with an ordering period that closed on April 11, 2021. This vehicle is no longer active; all opportunity to place new orders has expired as of five years ago.

The vehicle executed nine task orders totaling $1.6 million in combined potential value, with 100 percent of that value obligated. Task orders funded reconnaissance, design and specification development in AutoCAD format, on-site construction inspection, and project management oversight. Actual work expanded beyond traditional design to include occupational health and safety staffing (three orders), hydrographic surveying and technical services for dredging operations, structural analysis of mechanical systems, facility relocation studies, and equipment inspection and rigging system assessments. Most orders were priced on a time-and-materials basis; pricing type was not uniform across the portfolio.

WSP USA Inc. dominated the vehicle, capturing five of nine orders representing $910 thousand in combined potential value. NKB & Ram-Tech JV held three orders worth $672 thousand combined potential value. Bergmann Associates Architects Engineers Landscape Architects & Surveyors DPC received one order for $60 thousand. All task orders were unrestricted competitive awards; no set-aside designations were used.

Ordering activity peaked in 2019 with three awards, then declined to one order in 2021. The first task order was awarded in August 2017, roughly 16 months after vehicle establishment. Individual task-order ceilings ranged from $35 thousand to $500 thousand. All nine task orders have completed or exceeded their ultimate completion dates as of the present time.

Since the vehicle's ordering period expired in April 2021, pursuit under this IDIQ is not viable. Any new work supporting Saint Lawrence Seaway Development Corporation architect/engineering requirements would require a successor vehicle or alternative contracting mechanism.

The Saint Lawrence Seaway Development Corporation (SLSDC) has awarded a Master IDIQ contract for architect/engineering services on projects for maintaining and improving their facilities in Massena, New York. Tasks may include reconnaissance; preparing designs, reports, specifications and drawings in AutoCAD or a compatible format; on-site inspection of construction work in progress; and project management/oversight.
