USACE New England District MACC 2021 - 2026

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers New England District established a Master IDIQ for vertical construction and incidental civil/site work with a shared ceiling of $90 million and a last order date of May 17, 2026. Ordering closed over one month ago, making this vehicle no longer active for new task-order awards.

The vehicle is fully obligated. Eighteen task orders totaling $47 million in combined potential value have been issued since May 2021, with $46.9 million already obligated. Order velocity declined sharply after 2022: seven orders in 2021, six in 2022, three in 2023, and one each in 2024 and 2025, with the final order awarded January 22, 2025. The gap in recent awards and the closed ordering period indicate the vehicle has completed its effective life cycle.

Awarded scope encompasses HVAC upgrades, roof replacements, facility renovations, structural work, and environmental abatement at military installations and federal research facilities across New England, including work at Westover Air Reserve Base, Natick Soldier Systems Center, Fort Devens, Naval Undersea Warfare Center Newport, and the Cold Regions Research and Engineering Laboratory. Recent orders include an $8.06 million commercial access point at Natick Soldier Systems Center (awarded December 2024) and a $5.75 million bio-environmental engineering facility at Westover Air Reserve Base (awarded January 2025).

P&S Construction Inc. dominates the prime field, holding five orders worth $24.8 million, or roughly 53 percent of combined potential value. Benaka, Inc., Structural Associates Inc., and Tantara Associates Corp follow with smaller portfolios. Six firms were awarded contracts across the 18 task orders.

Nearly all funding comes from the Army Corps of Engineers New England District itself, which placed 17 orders worth $41.3 million. Only one order funded the Army Corps of Engineers Louisville District ($5.8 million).

The set-aside mix shifted over time. Four orders (22 percent) used the Total Small Business set-aside, while 14 orders (78 percent) were unrestricted, indicating the vehicle operated as a mixed vehicle despite originating as a small-business-set-aside procurement.

Task orders ranged from $155,000 to $14.8 million, with most falling between $1 million and $8.5 million. All awards carried firm-fixed-price pricing.
