USACE intends to extend and increase capacity for Region 1 emergency debris-management services

USACE Rock Island District plans a sole-source modification to maintain emergency debris-management capacity in Northwestern Division Region 1 while competitive follow-on contracts are pursued. - Agency and action: U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Rock Island District (CEMVR), intends to extend the ordering period and increase capacity under an existing firm-fixed-price, single-award task order contract for Advanced Contract Initiative (ACI) Regional Debris Management Services. - Opportunity status: This is an intent notice, not a request for competitive proposals. Interested firms may submit capability statements for Government consideration. - Core services: Rapid-response disaster debris clearance and management, including separation, loading, hauling, reduction, recycling, and disposal; structural demolition; site setup and management; mobilization and demobilization; planning support; debris tracking; reporting; and special-waste handling as ordered. - Response requirements: Contractors must be able to mobilize personnel and equipment within 24 hours, including when infrastructure is severely degraded, and support large-scale surge operations. Required capabilities include managing concurrent vegetative, construction and demolition, hazardous-materials, and white-goods debris operations. - Additional task-order capabilities: Work may include Pre-Execution Planning Team support, an Automated Debris Management System (ADMS), temporary debris storage and reduction sites, environmental testing and restoration, and handling special streams such as household hazardous waste, asbestos-containing materials, vehicles, and electronic waste. Task orders will specify locations and work requirements. - Contract background: The attached ACI performance-work-statement summary describes a five-year IDIQ with a six-month extension option. The notice’s proposed modification is to the existing contract; its extension duration and revised end date are not stated. - Products and value: No specific products, OEMs, quantities, or estimated contract value are identified.

Description

Notice of Intent to Sole Source – Advanced Contract Initiative (ACI) Regional Debris Management Services: Region 1 – Northwestern Division (NWD)

DESCRIPTION

Intent to Sole Source: The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Rock Island District (CEMVR), intends to execute a bilateral contract modification to extend the ordering period and increase the contract capacity under Firm-Fixed-Price (FFP) Single Award Task Order Contract (SATOC) W912EK22D0008 with Ashbritt, Inc. (565 E. HILLSBORO BLVD, DEERFIELD BEACH, FL 33441).

This action is being conducted under statutory authority Title 10 U.S.C. § 3204(a)(1), as implemented by FAR 6.302-1(a)(2)(iii)(B): Services may be deemed to be available only from the original source in the case of follow-on contracts for the continued provision of highly specialized services when it is likely that award to any other source would result in unacceptable delays in fulfilling the agency's requirements.

Summary of Proposed Modification

Ordering Period Extension: The existing contract currently expires on November 9, 2026. This action extends the ordering period to maintain continuous response capability pending award of the competitive follow-on contracts. Capacity Increase: Adds sufficient emergency contract capacity to ensure uninterrupted operational capability for unforeseen, newly declared disaster events. Requirement: Rapid-response debris management services under FEMA Mission Assignments (ESF #3. Contractors must be capable of deploying, mobilizing labor/equipment, and commencing debris reduction and disposal across disrupted operational areas within 24 hours of notification. Services shall be performed in accordance with the attached Performance Work Statement (PWS).

Note: The Government is actively conducting a full and open competitive acquisition for the successor ACI Debris Management contracts, with contract awards anticipated in 2027. This bridge action is solely intended to prevent an operational capability gap during contract transition.
