Michael Baker-Stantec GS, JV

Michael Baker-Cardno JV, a joint venture between Michael Baker International and Cardno registered in Moon, Pennsylvania, delivers facility engineering and architectural planning services to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and Army European Command as a prime contractor (100% of recent awards) under full-and-open competition with no set-aside designations. The JV operates as a partnership or limited liability partnership and competes across engineering services (all 15 recent awards) with primary focus on architect-engineering planning (13 awards under PSC Architect And Engineering—General: Other).

Michael Baker-Cardno JV's customer base is entirely Army-centric and geographically concentrated on European installations. Five customer offices share all recent awards: the Department of the Army Corps of Engineers Engineering Support Center Huntsville (1 award, $400 million in potential value), the Department of the Army European Command (5 awards, $205.2 million), the Department of the Army Corps of Engineers Engineering District Europe (5 awards, $2.1 million), the Department of the Army Installation Management Command Europe Region (3 awards, $1.3 million), and the Department of the Army Corps of Engineers Engineering and Support Center (1 award, $3,000). The Huntsville IDIQ anchors the potential-value ranking, though the European Command provides consistent ordering volume.

The JV holds two active indefinite delivery vehicles. A $400 million multiple-award IDIQ established January 20, 2026, by Engineering and Support Center Huntsville provides the full spectrum of facility engineering and architectural services exclusively in support of the Ballistic Missile Defense System Mandatory Center of Expertise (MD-CX), with performance in Coraopolis, Pennsylvania; a single $2,500 delivery order has been issued against this vehicle as of January 21, 2026. A $94.5 million multiple-award IDIQ awarded September 4, 2024, by USACE Europe District covers architect-engineering planning services across multiple European locations (Belgium, Denmark, France, Germany, Italy, and others) supporting Status of Forces Agreement (SOFA) programs; two task orders valued at $231,000 combined have been issued against this vehicle. Nine task orders totaling $4.2 million have been placed under the earlier W912GB19D0034 IDC, now winding down.

Concrete recent work includes a $996,399 delivery order from USACE Europe District for SOFA facility planning at Spangdahlem Air Base (ultimate completion August 13, 2026); a $454,502 delivery order from USACE Europe District for planning and water system analysis in Poland supporting the European Deterrence Initiative (ultimate completion July 11, 2025); a $749,858 Potable Water System Master Plan for Army installations in Europe (ultimate completion December 8, 2023); and a $1.167 million delivery order from Army European Command for planning and programming at Coleman Barracks in Kaiserslautern, Germany (ultimate completion May 31, 2024). Combined obligated dollars stand at $4.1 million against $608.5 million in combined potential value across all awards. One award (the Poland task order, $454,502) faces ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, representing minimal near-term recompete exposure. Activity has been episodic—three awards in 2024, two in 2025, two in 2026—with the Huntsville IDIQ award in January 2026 establishing the JV's position on the largest-value vehicle in its portfolio.
