Phe-Baker JV, LLC

Phe-Baker JV, LLC, a for-profit limited liability partnership based in Rockville, Maryland, operates as a 100% prime contractor delivering environmental engineering, compliance assessment, and architect-engineer services to the U.S. Coast Guard and U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, competing under full-and-open (non-set-aside) designations across its federal footprint. The joint venture is structured as a child entity under parent Potomac-Hudson Engineering Inc.

Phe-Baker JV's capability portfolio centers on environmental compliance evaluations, NPDES permit engineering, historic survey work, environmental assessments, noise studies, and integrated waste management compliance services. Recent work includes a $506 thousand delivery order issued December 17, 2025, for implementation of the FY 25 Post Hurricane Impact Assessment Program at 21 selected Coast Guard facilities under the Nationwide Environmental Engineering Services IDIQ (completion November 4, 2027); a $334 thousand firm fixed-price delivery order from May 29, 2024, for the FY 24 Environmental Compliance Evaluation Program at Norfolk, Virginia (completion September 30, 2025); and a $389 thousand delivery order from April 26, 2023, for FY23 environmental compliance evaluations across various Coast Guard locations (completed July 31, 2024). A fourth IDIQ awarded by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers South Atlantic Division carries a potential value of $45 million for environmental planning, auditing, permitting, and program support services.

Customer concentration is extreme and geographically narrow. The Department of Homeland Security U.S. Coast Guard dominates with 24 awards (86% of total awards) carrying $129.3 million in combined potential value; the Department of the Army Corps of Engineers Engineering District Mobile accounts for the remaining four awards with $49 million combined potential value. The two rankings are identical — both customer relationships are fully aligned by award count and dollars. Phe-Baker JV places all task orders under two parent vehicles: the Nationwide Environmental Engineering Services Coast Guard IDIQ (23 task orders, $4.3 million combined potential value) and the USACE South Atlantic Division Environmental Quality Program Architect-Engineering Services IDIQ (2 task orders, $2 thousand combined potential value).

Activity since 2022 has been uneven — one award in 2022, three in 2023, two in 2024, two in 2025, and one most recently in October 2026. Only two awards (combined potential value $632 thousand) reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, limiting near-term recompete exposure. Award portfolio covers 28 delivery orders and IDIQs with combined potential value of $178.3 million, though only $4.3 million (2% of potential) has been obligated to date. Work is classified under Engineering Services NAICS codes, with 25 of 28 awards carrying Architect and Engineering – General PSC coding.
