Small Business Nationwide Deactivation, Decommissioning, and Removal

The Small Business Nationwide Deactivation, Decommissioning, and Removal (DD&R) Master IDIQ is a comprehensive contract vehicle designed to support facility management and environmental remediation services across multiple Department of Energy (DOE) program offices. This $2 billion indefinite delivery contract enables small businesses to provide critical services including facility deactivation, decommissioning, waste management, and program support for sites managed by the National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA), Office of Environmental Management (EM), Office of Naval Reactors (NR), and Office of Science (OS). The contract allows for flexible task order issuance to address complex environmental and facility management challenges at various locations throughout the United States.

The inaugural task order, awarded to North Wind Portage, Inc., a self-certified small disadvantaged business, demonstrates the vehicle's typical engagement model, involving environmental monitoring, surveillance, and maintenance at specific DOE sites. In this case, the $14,051,576 firm-fixed-price task order focuses on the Energy Technology Engineering Center (ETEC) in Simi Valley, California, with a period of performance extending to January 2027. The task order was not set aside for a specific socioeconomic program, indicating potential opportunities for various small business categories. Future task orders are expected to follow a similar pattern, with values ranging from several million to tens of millions of dollars, targeting specialized environmental remediation, facility decommissioning, and support services across DOE's complex network of research, production, and legacy sites.
