About this vehicle
The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) awarded a Master IDIQ on September 29, 2017, to deliver, update, and develop training; develop supplemental materials and services; advance the state of practice; and implement best practices for the FHWA Structures, Hydraulics, and Geotechnical engineering program areas. Ordering closed on March 28, 2023, making this vehicle no longer available for new task orders. A successor vehicle, "Develop, Update, and Deliver Training for the Federal Highway Administration Structures Program Area," was awarded July 17, 2023.
The vehicle funded 64 task orders with a combined potential value of $58 million, of which $40 million (69 percent) has been obligated. Activity peaked early: the vehicle issued 27 orders in 2018, then averaged 7 per year through 2021 before dropping to 3 in 2022. The most recent task order was awarded July 11, 2022. All task orders are unrestricted, open competitive awards.
Task orders span instructor-led and web-based training development and delivery across bridge inspection, hydraulic design, geotechnical engineering, and related technical fields. Representative orders include a $1.4 million effort to update bridge-inspection and safety-inspection courses (DTFH6117D00036-693JJ320F000301), a $1.4 million geotechnical content update (DTFH6117D00030-693JJ319F000318), and a $3.9 million bridge-inspection course delivery task (DTFH6117D00033-693JJ318F000040). Most orders are firm-fixed-price; a minority are cost-plus-fixed-fee.
Competition is moderately concentrated. Greenman-Pedersen Inc. holds the largest share by potential value at $18.2 million across 8 orders. Michael Baker International, Inc. (13 orders, $12.7 million) and Ayres Associates Inc. (13 orders, $10.2 million) follow. The top five firms account for roughly 88 percent of combined potential value. All 64 orders funded a single customer: FHWA.
