Water Resources Analytical and Professional Support Services

The Department of the Army Corps of Engineers awarded the Water Resources Analytical and Professional Support Services Master IDIQ, a multiple-award vehicle for analytical and professional support across program management, research, planning and policy support; business and financial management; and facilitation, outreach, communication, and training, with orders placeable through March 28, 2027 under a $48.335 million shared ceiling. The originating solicitation carried a partial small business set-aside of 15% on contracts under $16.5 million, but 54 of 59 task orders (92%) carry no set-aside and 5 (8%) are partial small business, so the vehicle is not fully set aside. The vehicle was awarded February 4, 2022, with 4 months and 3 weeks of ordering authority remaining. Orders per year run 13 in 2022, 18 in 2023, 8 in 2024, 15 in 2025, and 5 in 2026 to date, with the most recent award dated June 1, 2026. Of $40.6 million combined potential value, $31.9 million (79%) is obligated across 59 orders.

Seven distinct primes hold awards. CDM Federal Programs Corporation leads with 27 orders and $20.2 million combined potential value, followed by The Council Oak, LLC (10 orders, $6.6 million), Booz Allen Hamilton Inc. (3 orders, $5.3 million), and ABT Global LLC (5 orders, $4 million). CDM and The Council Oak together hold $26.8 million of the $40.6 million. The source also lists a second CDM Federal Programs Corporation entry of 5 orders at $464 thousand.

The Department of the Army Corps of Engineers accounts for 37 orders ($25 million combined potential value), the Institute for Water Resources for 20 orders ($11.4 million), and the Humphreys Engineer Center Support Activity for 2 orders ($4.1 million). Activity concentrates heavily in the Corps itself.

Awarded orders skew toward operations and maintenance of Corps information systems, including the Lock Performance Monitoring System, Notice to Navigation Interests, Planner Database, Project Assistance Library, Waterborne Commerce Statistics, Civil Works Business Intelligence, and the Dam Safety Toolbox. Facilitation and workshop support for the levee safety community of practice and the National Levee Safety Program, technical editing and publishing for EP 415-1-261 and UFC guide specifications, risk analysis training, and planning program support follow. All orders are firm-fixed-price.

Sampled order ceilings run from $31,894.56 to $7.9 million. The largest recent orders are USACE Construction Management Innovation Support ($5.95 million obligated against a $7.9 million ceiling) and Civil Works Business Intelligence operations and maintenance ($3.4 million obligated against a $3.79 million ceiling). A $5,000 base-year order is a minimum guarantee, not a representative order value.

Water Resources Analytical & Professional Support Services is categorized into three Domains: (1) Program Management, Research, Planning and Policy Support, (2) Business Management and Financial Management Services and Support and (3) Facilitation, Outreach, Communication, and Training Support.
