HDR MN NPS JV

HDR MN NPS JV, a joint venture between HDR Inc. and CH2M, operates as a prime contractor delivering multi-disciplinary architecture and engineering design services to the National Park Service for seawall rehabilitation and reconstruction infrastructure in the National Capital Area. The venture competes full-and-open and holds a single-award indefinite delivery contract with NPS, issuing task orders entirely from one customer agency without set-aside designation.

The joint venture's portfolio consists entirely of seven prime awards under a $100 million National Park Service IDC (140P2022D0021) awarded April 15, 2022, with completion March 31, 2027. Recent delivery orders span seawall compliance and design services across preliminary design, schematic design, design-build delivery, permit planning, and construction handoff for the East and West Potomac Seawalls and Tidal Basin in Washington, D.C. Representative work includes a $5.78 million seawall compliance delivery order issued April 15, 2022, for multi-disciplinary design and design-build services; a $587.6 thousand multi-disciplinary architecture and engineering design order issued June 18, 2026; and a $374.6 thousand delivery order issued September 21, 2026, for Tidal Basin seawall rehabilitation design services under a progressive design-build program. Across these orders, the venture delivers planning, permitting, landscape architecture, geotechnical engineering, surveying, civil and structural engineering, and environmental engineering services.

Customer concentration is singular: the Department of the Interior's National Park Service National Office accounts for all seven awards and all $107.3 million in combined potential value. Six of the seven awards flow through the single parent IDC, with $7.3 million obligated against a $100 million ceiling as of the most recent update. Three awards (combined potential value $1.3 million) face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and will require recompete activity.

On SCI-reportable federal service contracts, HDR MN NPS JV invoiced $4.7 million across three prime records in FY2022–FY2024, with workforce scale declining from 2.5 FTEs in FY2022 to 0.2 FTEs in FY2024. Government-paid hourly rates on SCI records ran from a 10th percentile of $65.12 per hour through a median of $316.02 per hour and a 90th percentile of $406.71 per hour. Across SCI-reportable prime contracts, subcontractors performed roughly 38% of total contractor hours; named subs include Soil And Land Use Technology Inc., GEI Consultants Inc., E2Cr Inc., and Interagency Inc., delivering geotechnical engineering and permit preparation support. The venture is a child entity of HDR Engineering Inc.
