About this opportunity
The Department of the Army Corps of Engineers Engineering Support Center Huntsville has awarded a sole-source bridge contract to Environmental Synectics, Inc. for continued maintenance and support services for the Environmental Management System Support (EMSS) FUDSChem data processing system, effective 22 June 2026, under contract W912DY26PA021.
The justification cites Title 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1), which permits sole-source awards when only one responsible source exists and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. Environmental Synectics is the incumbent contractor with institutional knowledge, system access, security authorizations, and technical expertise required to maintain FUDSChem and support the Enterprise Chemistry data transfer mechanism. The procurement is urgent: the prior 90-day bridge contract (W912DY26PA009) expires 18 June 2026, and a 30-day transition period is required. Market research identified ten potential vendors through an RFI posted 11–15 May 2026, but the government determined insufficient time exists to properly evaluate competitors given the immediate need for service continuity. Without uninterrupted support, FUDS project teams and laboratories would be unable to upload or validate critical environmental chemistry data, potentially invalidating field samples subject to strict regulatory holding times and forcing costly resampling efforts.
The period of performance is 9 months, extending through 18 March 2027. Work is performed in Sacramento, California. The contract is firm-fixed price and funded with FY 2026 Military FUDS Operations & Maintenance funds. NAICS 541620 (Environmental Consulting Services) applies.
