EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

1. The objective of this contract is to provide Environmental Remediation Services (ERS) in support of a wide range of customers serviced by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Alaska District. In addition to the Air Force and Army military stakeholders, USACE Alaska District customers can include U.S. Forest Service (USFS), U.S. Coast Guard (USCG), Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and Bureau of Land Management (BLM). Environmental remediation work executed under this ERS contract will include a full range of environmental investigations, studies, engineering support, remedial designs, removal and remedial actions and operations and maintenance activities for the USACE Alaska District customers. The multiple-award indefinite-delivery indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contract tools are anticipated to support various environmental programs within the USACE Alaska District, to include but not limited to the Formerly Used Defense Sites (FUDS) program, Air Force Installation Restoration (IRP), Air Force Environmental Quality (EQ), Army EQ, Army IRP, and Native American Lands Environmental Mitigation Program (NALEMP). The USACE Alaska District is part of the USACE Pacific Ocean Division (POD) which encompasses all areas covered by the U.S. Pacific Command (USPACOM). Primary performance locations will be within the State of Alaska, but some work may be performed outside of Alaska but within the USACE POD area of responsibility (AOR).

2. There are up to five (5) Multiple Award Task Order Contracts (MATOC) anticipated under this solicitation, W911KB19R0007; however, the Government reserves the right to award more, less, or none at all. This requirement is being competed as a 100% Total Small Business Set-Aside under the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) Code 562910, Environmental Remediation Services. All awards issued under this solicitation will share a total ceiling capacity of $140 Million (M).

3. All resultant contracts awarded from this solicitation will constitute multiple award IDIQ type contracts as defined in the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 16.504. Task orders will be awarded against the IDIQ contract using the fair opportunity procedures discussed in FAR 16.5, in addition to competition requirements identified in Defense FAR Supplement (DFARS) 216.505-70. All MATOC awardees will be afforded fair opportunity to be considered for award of each order exceeding $3.5K, unless an exception described in FAR 16.505(b)(2) applies. Task orders may be firm-fixed price (FFP) or fixed price with economic price adjustment (FP-EPA). This solicitation is for a three (3) year base period, with two (2) 1-year options to extend performance. These are ordering periods where task orders will be issued for services as described in Section C and ordered in accordance with Section G. The ordering period shall commence upon the date of contract award and continue for a base period of three (3) years, and may continue with two (2) 1-year option periods if exercising of the options is determined to be in the Government’s best interest.
