PROJECT DESCRIPTION

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Europe District is planning to establish Blanket Purchase Agreements (BPA), under the procedures of Federal Acquisition Regulation Part 13, for various types of engineering testing and survey services in Europe. Services will primarily be in Germany, Poland, and Belgium; some services may be required in the Netherlands, Luxembourg, Norway, Denmark, Romania, Italy, and Hungary. Results from these services will be used to supplement design information for in-house and architect-engineer (A-E)-designed deliverables, and to support the construction of USACE projects. Under this planned agreement, the Contractor shall provide all labor, supervision, transportation, supplies, vehicles, tools, materials, equipment, and incidental services required to execute and document surveys and testing at Department of Defense (DoD) facilities. The BPAs will consist of a five-year purchasing period. The contemplated combined value of all BPAs to be issued for this requirement is $5,000,000. USACE anticipates a solicitation will be issued in early February of 2026, and issuance of a BPAs late April 2026.

The type of work to be performed under the planned agreement(s) shall include, but is not limited to:

• Hazardous material testing
  • Lead, asbestos, mineral fibers (KMF), contaminated soil
• Pre-design or Independent Technical Review (ITR) checks
  • Project survey validation
• Destructive structural testing and surveys
  • Concrete, asphalt, foundation surveys, core borings, identification of structural systems, shear wave velocity tests, load tests, reinforcement sampling, rebound hammer tests, endoscope camera surveys 
• Non-destructive testing: concrete
  • Rebound Hammer, Compressive Strength, slump, air, temperature, w/c ratio, and admixture verifications.
• Non-destructive testing: asphalt
  • Density, gradation, asphalt content, temperature, binder performance grade (PG) verification.
• Soils and aggregates
  • Proctor compaction, field density (sand cone/nuclear), gradation, Atterberg limits
• Utility capacity and condition surveys
• Fire flow testing
• Roofing conditions and materials survey
  • Electronic leak detection
• As-built development / verification
  • Facility condition assessment, structural systems condition assessment, seismic screening (ASCE 41), fire rating survey, screening/tracing of interior utilities, in-situ (on-site) acoustical testing (Rw or STC)
• Steel reinforcement / structural streel
  • Tensile, bend, mill cert reviews and weld inspections.
• UXO survey
• Geotechnical testing
• Special inspections / lab testing
  • Concrete QA, asphalt QA, welding QA (UFGS specification 01 45 35)

CAPABILITIES STATEMENT

Vendors interested in this potential procurement should submit a brief capabilities statement as one PDF. The capabilities statement will assist the Government in deciding how to group multiple BPAs by tasks and countries, as it is anticipated that a company will not have the capability to perform all tasks in all countries. The capabilities statement shall include the following:

1. Company name, address, point of contact, phone number, and e-mail address. Include Commercial and Government Entity (CAGE) code and Unique Entity Identifier (UEI) number from the company’s System for Award Management (SAM) registration.

2. A completed Experience/Capability Worksheet (see attachment) along with a brief description of in-house capability to execute testing and survey services, and experience with comparable work performed within the past five years. Provide examples of past projects, including the following information:

1. A brief description of the project and whether work was performed as a prime or subcontractor
2. customer name
3. location and value of the project in US dollars

3. Describe the in-house capability to work in these locations (see Experience/Capability Worksheet) or discuss what arrangements (e.g. subcontract, teaming arrangement, joint venture) may be in place to perform the work.
