U.S. Army Garrison – Redstone 22 May 2026

Part 1

General Information

1. General: This is a non-personal service(s) contract under which the personnel rendering the service(s) are not subject, either by the contract’s terms or by the manner of its administration, to the supervision and control usually prevailing in relationships between the Government and its employees. The Government shall neither supervise contractor employees nor control the method by which the contractor performs the required tasks. Under no circumstances shall the Government assign tasks to, or prepare work schedules for individual contractor employees. It shall be the responsibility of the Contractor to manage its employees and to guard against any actions that are of the nature of personal services or give the perception of personal services. If the Contractor believes that any actions constitute, or are perceived to constitute personal services, it shall be the Contractor’s responsibility to notify the Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR) immediately.

1.1 Description of Services/Introduction: This is a non-personal service(s) contract to provide environmental support services and is intended to maximize efficiency and to provide the flexibility to allocate resources across the Environmental Management Division (EMD) based on workload requirements. Efficiency and flexibility of the highly trained workforce are critical in the EMD support of the Installation’s resources and the overall DPW mission in support of the over 70 tenant organizations on Redstone Arsenal.

1.2 Background: The U.S. Army Garrison – Redstone Arsenal (USAG-Redstone) Directorate of Public Works (DPW) Environmental Management Division (EMD) is responsible for all Installation environmental management activities. The EMD supports the other divisions of DPW and Installation tenants in providing a sustainable installation infrastructure and ensuring legal compliance with project planning, construction, operational activities, and hazardous waste and materials management, and clean up if necessary.

Redstone Arsenal’s mission includes supporting a variety of tenant organizations, including U.S. Army Materiel Command, Army Aviation and Missile Command, the Space and Missile Defense Command, United States Space Command, Program Executive Committee for Missiles and Space, Federal Bureau of Investigation, Redstone Test Center, and the Missile Defense Agency. The USAG-Redstone DPW EMD plays a vital role in the support of tenant activities through sustainable facility and infrastructure development, environmental regulatory compliance, and hazardous waste and material management.

1.3 Scope: In order to support all the missions of the U.S. Army, Department of War (DoW), and multiple Federal agency tenants/customers on Redstone Arsenal with environmental services, the USAG-Redstone EMD requires specialized technical and administrative services.

Non-inherently governmental support functions include environmental restoration, cultural and natural resources technical support, specialized scientists, database managers and analysts, geographic information systems technicians, and hazardous waste technical support. These services will perform a wide variety of tasks in support of public works, engineering, planning, installation and mission sustainment on Redstone Arsenal. These services are required for direct and indirect support of a multitude of customer requirements and may vary in scope and magnitude to reflect the current condition of construction projects, operational compliance, restoration clean-up projects and implementation of management plans. The Contractor shall provide personnel, management, and any other items and services not Government furnished to perform the services defined in this PWS. Services shall be performed in support of USAG- Redstone EMD and shall be performed primarily at Redstone Arsenal, Alabama. The Contractor shall possess the proper training, certifications, and commensurate experience with the work they will perform, and level of responsibility they will exercise. The Contractor will have the capability to sub-contract the clean-up and remediation of hazardous materials spill occurrences. This effort shall be consistent across all the USAG-Redstone EMD branches to staff functions relative to EMD operations, and includes labor, supplies, equipment, materials, and transportation vehicles (unless otherwise specified as Government furnished) incidental to activities described in the performance work statement (PWS). The Contractor shall perform to the standards and specifications in the contract.

1.4 Objectives: The EMD will utilize this Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract, via project task orders (TO), to support functions in the Cultural and Natural Resources (CNR) Branch, the Compliance Branch, and the Restoration Branch. The CNR Branch maintains the installation’s cultural and natural resources, forestry and related outdoor recreational programs, and ensures compliance for all installation activities with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), as well as many other Federal and state laws and regulations. The Compliance Branch insures adherence to Alabama Department of Environmental Management (ADEM) and Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulations and policy. The Installation Restoration Branch manages the cleanup of the installation’s land areas with past chemical contamination, coordinating these efforts with ADEM and EPA.
