Coastal Engineering Services

The Master Agreement IDV for Coastal Engineering Services provides comprehensive professional engineering support for coastal infrastructure projects throughout Florida, specifically serving Districts 5 and 10, which encompass Broward, Dade, Glades, Hendry, Martin, Monroe, Okeechobee, Palm Beach, and St. Lucie Counties. The contract scope includes schematic design studies, design development documents, contract document preparation, construction administration services, environmental permitting support, bulkhead and breakwater assessments, beach nourishment engineering, and specialized services such as seagrass monitoring and underwater investigations. These services are available on an indefinite delivery basis through individual task assignments, allowing the Florida Department of Environmental Protection to procure coastal engineering support for state parks, marine facilities, and shoreline protection projects as needed.

Coastal Systems International, Inc., a Florida corporation located in Coral Gables, serves as the prime contractor under this Master Agreement with the Florida Department of Environmental Protection. The contract was originally executed on May 19, 2003, and has been extended through multiple amendments, with the final extension documented through Amendment No. 07 extending the contract through November 19, 2011. The contract structure utilizes both fixed-price and cost-reimbursement mechanisms through individual task assignments, with individual task values ranging from approximately $2,235 to over $101,000. The contract operates as an indefinite delivery vehicle on a Master Agreement basis, enabling the state to task Coastal Systems International for specific coastal engineering projects throughout the identified service areas without executing separate competitive procurements for each engagement.
