Program Details: A MATOC is defined as an indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contract entered into with two (2) or more sources pursuant to the same solicitation.

Contractors will be expected to accomplish a wide variety of environmental remediation services at various known or suspected

Draf t

Hazardous, Toxic, and Radioactive Waste (HTRW) or MMRP sites or Natural Resources area.

The MMRP projects may be incidental to or in support of environmental services or may be stand-alone MMRP projects. Contractor must meet standards and requirements outlined in DDESB TP-18, EM-200-1-15, and all applicable USACE requirements. Some of the actions for the MMRP projects are to conduct Site Investigations (SI), Remedial Investigations (RI), Feasibility Studies (FS), and Remedial Actions.

The ERS activities include preliminary assessments, site inspections, remedial investigations, feasibility studies, and site remediation including excavation/removal of contaminated soil, off-site disposal of contaminated soil, and installation of treatment systems. The ERS actions may address both regulated and non-regulated toxic substances. As part of any site remediation activities, some incidental construction may also be included in the task orders.

The total program value is still under evaluation, but not expected to exceed $249M equivalent over a seven (7) year period. Individual task orders are anticipated to range between $500K - $15M. Each contract awarded will contain an initial ordering period of two (2) years, and five (5) one-year option periods. The Government reserves the right to utilize an On-Ramp concept, consistent with FAR 16.504(c)(1)(ii)(A), to maintain sufficient competition among MATOC Partners throughout the ordering periods which may include the addition of Indefinite Delivery Contracts.
