Testing materials

The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) Master Agreement CAD70 is a comprehensive Materials and Testing Contract designed to provide technical support services across the state. The IDV enables procurement of a wide range of professional consulting services, including soil exploration, geotechnical testing, highway materials testing, foundation studies, laboratory analyses, and field investigations. Consultants can perform tests on various materials such as soil, rock, concrete, asphalt, metals, and water, with the flexibility to provide staff augmentation and testing services in FDOT laboratories or at the consultant's facilities.

The master agreement is awarded to AECOM Technical Services, Inc. and involves additional subconsultants like Terracon Consultants, Inc., with a contract period from May 24, 2021, to May 23, 2026. The contract is a statewide Florida IDV with a maximum limiting amount of $5,000,000, structured to allow task work orders that can be established as lump sum, limiting amount, or a combination of both. No specific volume of work is guaranteed, and FDOT retains the right to engage other consultants or staff for these services. The contract type is a Master Agreement, providing FDOT with a flexible procurement mechanism for essential materials testing and technical support services.
