Gannett Fleming-Hdr JV

Gannett Fleming-Hdr JV, a joint venture between Gannett Fleming Inc. and HDR Inc., provides architect-engineer services to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers as a prime contractor on a full-and-open basis, with no socioeconomic set-asides across its federal footprint. The joint venture is structured as a partnership or limited liability partnership, headquartered in Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania, and operates as a child entity under parent GFT Infrastructure, Inc.

The joint venture's capability portfolio centers on civil works infrastructure design, inspection, and engineering support for the Army Corps of Engineers' dam, waterway, and bridge portfolio. Representative work includes a $1.73 million firm fixed-price delivery order awarded December 2023 for design of the Mahoning Dam service bridge replacement in New Bethlehem, Pennsylvania (completion June 2026); a $490 thousand delivery order awarded December 2024 for the Section 219 Environmental Infrastructure Program's Elm Run Stormwater Management Project in Triadelphia, West Virginia (completion August 2026); a $403 thousand delivery order awarded March 2026 for bridge inspections under Cycle Year 2026 A-E Services work (completion September 2026); and a $281 thousand order awarded March 2025 for Conemaugh Bridge inspections in Saltsburg, Pennsylvania (completion December 2025). Earlier work encompassed structural inspection of multiple Pennsylvania dams and bridges, hydraulic steel structure assessments, water tank rehabilitation design, and expert review panels.

Customer concentration is narrow and stable. The Army Corps of Engineers Pittsburgh District and the broader Corps of Engineers account for 100% of awards across the source period, with the Pittsburgh District dominating both volume and dollars (5 awards, $10.4 million combined potential value). All nine awards are prime contracts issued as delivery orders under a single $7.5 million Indefinite Delivery Contract (MATOC) for Architect-Engineer Services, awarded March 2022 with ultimate completion February 2027. The eight task orders placed under this IDIQ carry $3.7 million in combined obligated value, representing 33% of the joint venture's total combined potential value of $11.2 million. Activity has remained modest and flat — two awards in 2022, three in 2023, two in 2024, and one each in 2025 and 2026 — with only two awards (combined potential value $894 thousand) reaching ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, presenting limited near-term recompete exposure. Place of performance spans Pennsylvania and West Virginia, with administrative oversight through the Army Corps of Engineers.
