Ch2M Hill - CDM Pa-Tac Recovery Services

Ch2M Hill - CDM Pa-Tac Recovery Services, a subsidiary of Jacobs Engineering Group operating through parent entity Ch2M Hill Companies, LTD., operates exclusively as a prime contractor delivering disaster recovery technical assistance, environmental consulting, and Public Assistance program support to the Federal Emergency Management Agency under full-and-open competition with no set-aside designations.

The vendor's federal footprint is narrowly concentrated on FEMA disaster recovery work. Of 138 total awards spanning 2012 to May 2026, 110 awards (64% of combined potential value of $3.58 billion) sit with the FEMA base funding agency; an additional 12 awards worth $1.12 billion flow through the FEMA Community Survivor Assistance Section, and 12 more worth $123.3 million go to FEMA Headquarters Office of the Chief Procurement Officer. Combined, these three FEMA entities account for 99% of all awards and 100% of combined potential value. The customer concentration is extreme — FEMA represents the vendor's entire prime federal business, with no documented work for other agencies.

Ch2M Hill - CDM Pa-Tac Recovery Services' capability footprint centers on time-and-materials and hybrid time-and-materials/cost-reimbursement delivery of Public Assistance technical assistance following presidentially declared disasters. Representative work includes a $94.7 million delivery order awarded February 15, 2023, supporting the Hermit Peak-Calf Canyon Fire Claims Office in New Mexico under PA TAC IV, a $59.9 million delivery order awarded October 30, 2024, covering multi-disaster support across Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, and Nebraska (Regions VII) under the newer PA TAC V, and an $11.1 million delivery order awarded May 1, 2024, providing Region IX COVID-19 support spanning California, Guam, Hawaii, Northern Mariana Islands, Nevada, Arizona, and American Samoa. Concrete services include site inspections, environmental and historic preservation consulting, cost estimating, training, appeals and audits assistance, claims processing support, and infrastructure rebuilding guidance to state, local, tribal, and territorial governments. The vendor also performs policy and program guide doctrine development and equipment-schedule updates for FEMA's Public Assistance program administration.

The vendor holds two dominant parent IDIQs. The Public Assistance Technical Assistance Contracts IV (PA TAC IV), a single-award vehicle awarded before the source's earliest dates, carries 55 task orders totaling $652.9 million in combined potential value. The Public Assistance Technical Assistance Contracts III precedes that with 77 task orders and $445.9 million combined potential value. A newer single-award IDIQ, Public Assistance Technical Assistance Contracts V (PA TAC V), awarded January 27, 2024, with a $570.5 million ceiling and performance through September 30, 2028, has generated three delivery orders to date totaling $73.6 million (one completed in November 2026, one with completion targeted September 2025, and one with completion targeted October 2025). Place of performance for most recent PA TAC V work is Greenwood Village, Colorado, with service delivery spanning the Western United States.

Activity has been volatile year to year, declining from six awards in 2021 to four in 2024, with only one award recorded in 2026 as of the source date. However, this volatility reflects task order issuance patterns rather than recompete risk; only one award ($2.6 million) faces ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, meaning the bulk of the $3.58 billion potential value remains active or in execution beyond the near horizon.

Ch2M Hill - CDM Pa-Tac Recovery Services consistently structures its delivery using subcontractors. Across SCI-reportable prime contracts, subcontractors account for an average 16% of total contractor hours, with 133 named subcontractors documented in the SCI dataset. Named recurring subcontractor partners include National Disaster Recovery Technical Assistance Consultants Inc. (minority-owned), Electrical Utility Disaster Specialists Inc., K-Rise Enterprises Inc. (women-owned small business), L-W Resources Inc. (women-owned small business), Arcus Consulting Group LLC (veteran-owned small business), Civil Logistics LLC (service-disabled veteran-owned small business), Alchemy Park LLC (women-owned small business and HUBZone-certified), Flux Resources LLC, Disaster Recovery Associates LLC, and Guidehouse Inc. Environmental consulting and utility recovery specialist firms dominate the subcontractor roster, enabling the prime to maintain core administrative management and general management consulting capacity while sourcing specialized environmental, infrastructure, and historic preservation expertise from certified small business partners.

SCI-reported invoiced revenue of $186.5 million across FY2022 through FY2024 ($53.5 million in FY2022, $46.9 million in FY2023, $86 million in FY2024) reflects the subset of federal service contracts above the $150,000 reporting threshold and does not represent total federal or enterprise revenue. The SCI dataset shows roughly 57.2 FTEs delivered in FY2022, scaling to 64.2 FTEs in FY2023 and 107 FTEs in FY2024. On federal services contracts captured in SCI, government-paid median rates ran around $189.29/hr, with 10th-percentile rates at $100.58/hr and senior labor through $468.84/hr. The 2024 FTE jump and revenue increase reflect scaling under the newer PA TAC V vehicle and an expanded delivery footprint supporting concurrent disaster declarations across multiple FEMA regions.
