General Information Document Type: Synopsis Notice Solicitation Number: W912QR25R0029 Classification Code: C219- Architect and Engineering Services Due Date: Wednesday, 15 October 2025
Contracting Office Address:
U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Louisville District, 600 Martin Luther King Place, Louisville, Kentucky 40202
SYNOPSIS: INDEFINITE DELIVERY CONTRACT (IDC) FOR ARCHITECT-ENGINEER (A-E) SERVICES SUPPORTING US ARMY CORPS OF ENGINEERS (USACE) LOUISVILLE DISTRICT MILITARY DESIGN, AIR
FORCE RESERVE MISSION - COMBINED UNRESTRICTED AND SMALL BUSINESS
DESCRIPTION:
1. CONTRACT INFORMATION
1.1. This synopsis: selections made, and contracts awarded therefrom will be in accordance with the Architect-Engineer (A-E) Statue as implemented in Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) subpart 36.6 and Engineering Pamphlet (EP) 715-1-7. Firms will be selected for negotiation based on demonstration of competence and qualification for the required work.
1.2. Throughout the synopsis, the terms “firm”, “A-E Firm”, “Contractor”, “consultant” and “prime” are used synonymously. These terms represent legal entities including individual firms as joint-ventures and mentor-protégé joint ventures. These terms, however, do not represent prime and subcontractor (or subconsultant) relationships.
1.3. This procurement will be conducted under Product and Service Code (PSC) C219-Architect and Engineering- Other: General; and NAICS 541330- Engineering Services. The business size standard is $26M. In accordance with FAR 19.503, Reserves, this acquisition will be issued under one synopsis as an Unrestricted MATOC providing for a small business reserve. IAW FAR 19.504(c), all task orders will be reviewed for the reserve. If FAR 19.504(c) cannot be met, fair opportunity will be provided to all MATOC holders. The proposed MATOC will target seven (7) unrestricted awards and five (5) small business awards which will share the $150M capacity. The maximum number of awards will be dependent upon the quality of the SF 330’s submitted by the offerors as the Government intends to select all the most highly qualified offerors in each pool for negotiations. Each IDC will have a five (5) year contract period of performance consisting of a five-year base period. The anticipated performance period for the proposed contracts shall be from FY26-31, dependent upon the date of the last contract award. The wages and benefits for service employees (see FAR 22.10) performing under these contracts must be equal to those determined by the Department of Labor under the Service Contract Act, as determined relative to the employee’s office location (not the location of the work).
1.4. IDCs awarded from this synopsis shall be administered by the USACE, Louisville District Engineering Division, for use on federal AE service requirements under the jurisdiction of the Louisville District (LRL).
1.5. Work shall be issued by negotiated firm-fixed price task orders. Selection for task order awards shall be made in accordance with USACE Memo, Updated Procedures for the Selection of Task Orders on Architect-Engineer (A-E) Indefinite Delivery Contracts (IDCs), 1 April 2025. The MATOC Task Order selection board will evaluate the firms’ existing SF 330s against the criteria required by the proposed projects. When a task order is to be awarded, the Contracting Officer or their designee will notify firms under contract by the issuance of a Task Order Requirement Notice (TORN). If at least three Small Businesses appear highly qualified to perform the work, then the Small Business reserve will be issued the TORN. All TORNs will include a short summary of the scope of work and task order-specific selection criteria. The Simplified TORN process will be used when the selection board concludes that the Government already has sufficient information in the existing SF 330s to determine the most highly qualified firm to perform the task order requirement and that supplemental information is not needed. The Request for Supplemental Information (RSI) TORN process may not be routinely used, but will be used when the selection board determines that available information within the existing SF 330s is insufficient to determine the most highly qualified A-E firm to perform the task order requirement. All firms under contract will be promptly notified upon a selection decision. If the TORN process is replaced by another A-E selection method during the life of the proposed contract(s), then it is the intention of USACE to follow the updated Task Order selection process.
1.6. Other-than-small-business A-E firm that intend to subcontract shall express its intent to meet the small business goals of the SF 330, Section C, by identifying subcontracting opportunities with small business and small business partners the firm has previously used or would consider using. If selected for negotiation, the other than small business A-E firm will be required to submit a Small Business Subcontracting Plan in accordance with FAR 52.219-9 and DFARS 219-704 as part of its Price Proposal.
The Small Business Subcontracting Plan shall be evaluated in accordance with AFARS Appendix DD.
This plan is not required with this submittal but is required with the selected Offerors’s price proposal for negotiations.
1.7. To be eligible for contract award, an A-E firm (including Joint-Ventures (JV) must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM). Register at https://sam.gov/. Note that an A-E firm or JV need not be registered to submit an SF 330 in response to this synopsis. When the most highly qualified firms are notified of their selection and issued a Request for Price Proposal (RFPP), firms should have a reasonable time in which to register in SAM. This notwithstanding, it is solely the A-E firm’s responsibility to register in SAM and be registered in SAM prior to submission of a price proposal. If an A-E firm is currently registered in SAM, the SF 330 submitted in response to this announcement should include the applicable Commercial and Government Entity Code (UEI).
1.8. Upon selection of the most highly qualified firms, the solicitation (RFPP) documents will only be made available in electronic format. No CD-ROMs or hardcopy documents will be distributed.
1.9. Contractor performance evaluations: In accordance with FAR Subpart 36.604-Performance Evaluation, A-E contractor’s performance will be evaluated throughout the performance of the contract. The USACE follows the procedures outlined in EP 715-1-7 to fulfill this FAR requirement.
Performance evaluations shall be prepared in the Contracting Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS), which is a web-based system. CPARS/Past Performance evaluations will not be provided based on the IDC; instead, evaluations (interim, final or both as applicable) will be prepared for each A-E services contract/task order in excess of $35,000 or more. Past performance evaluations may also be prepared for contracts below $35,000. After an evaluation (interim or final) is prepared https://sam.gov/ by USACE, the firm whose performance has been evaluated will have the ability to access, review and comment on the evaluation for a period of 60 days. Current information about the system used for CPARS can be found on the CPARS website, https://www.cpars.gov. If the firm wishes to participate in the performance evaluation process, access to CPARS is the sole responsibility of the firm.
1.10. As a contract specifically procured by the Louisville District for the U.S. Air Force Reserve, the selected firms and relevant sub-consultants will be required to attend an annual two-day partnering workshop in Louisville, KY for the life of the contract. This workshop will require the attendance of representatives from the selected firms to define the Government's expectations, create a positive working atmosphere, encourage open communication, and to identify common goals. Cost for these sessions will be borne by the selected firms.
