USACE Mobile Architect and Engineering Services Supporting the Construction Management Program 2023 - 2029

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers established this Master IDIQ for architect-engineer services supporting construction management services (CMS) at federal and military installations across the Mobile District's area of responsibility—the southeastern United States, Central America, and South America—with the ordering period expiring January 16, 2028, leaving approximately 19 months of procurement authority remaining. The vehicle was designated Total Small Business at solicitation but has operated overwhelmingly as unrestricted: 90 percent of the 41 task orders awarded carry no set-aside, with 10 percent designated as partial small business.

Since award on January 17, 2023, ordering momentum has declined sharply. The vehicle generated 20 task orders in its first year, 15 in 2024, 5 in 2025, and only 1 in 2026 (awarded February 20, 2026). Task orders fund biddability and constructability reviews, construction cost estimates and schedules, contractor submittal reviews, shop drawing reviews, and quality assurance inspection across the nine core disciplines—project managers, architects, civil engineers, mechanical engineers, electrical engineers, structural engineers, cost estimators, construction QA inspectors (civil, electrical, mechanical, structural), and project schedulers.

The market is concentrated among five large primes. Thompson Engineering, Inc. and Resilient LLC Joint Venture together hold 23 of 41 orders and $55.6 million of the combined $80.1 million potential value. AECOM Technical Services, Inc., Accura Engineering And Consulting Services, Inc., and HDR Environmental, Operations And Construction, Inc. account for the remainder among named firms. Customer concentration is even sharper: the Department of the Army Corps of Engineers (primarily the Mobile District and headquarters military programs) placed 38 of 41 orders, representing $77.4 million of the $80.1 million combined potential value.

Of the $80.1 million combined potential value across all task orders, $62.2 million (78 percent) is already obligated. Individual task-order ceilings range from under $500 thousand to $8.3 million, with most falling between $1 million and $3 million. Tyndall Air Force Base rebuild work dominates the portfolio, appearing across multiple task orders and primes. Firm fixed price is the standard pricing structure. Several task orders include option years extending performance into 2028 and 2029.
