About this opportunity

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, New York District has published a Special Notice announcing its intent to sole source a contract modification for Chemistry Testing of Dredged Materials services. The notice pertains to Contract No. W912DS22D0003 currently held by Battelle, Inc., which the agency intends to modify by adding $740,000 in additional contract capacity. The existing contract has a total capacity of $8,000,000, with $3,742,647.87 already awarded through task orders. The work under this contract involves sample handling, processing and shipping, chemical analyses, and quality assurance/quality control procedures. The sole-source authority is based on FAR 6.301-1, which applies when only one responsible source can satisfy agency requirements.

The purpose of this modification is to address an anticipated increase in sampling and testing requirements for dredged materials projects during the remaining two years of the current contract period. While this is not a request for competitive proposals, all responsible sources may submit capability statements for consideration by the agency by 4:00pm EST on July 21, 2025, to Mr. Brian Winters at the specified email address. The government retains full discretion to determine whether to compete this proposed modification based on responses received to this notice. There are no specific eligibility criteria outlined beyond the requirement that sources must be "responsible" and capable of meeting the stated requirements. The agency anticipates making the modification within approximately 15 days after the notice date unless another organization is determined to have the capacity to meet the requirement.
