The Transportation Center has been verified as a USACE Mandatory Center of Expertise, per listing on USACE’s Technical Excellence Network at http://www.nwd.usace.army.mil/About/Centers-of-Expertise/.

Requirement: The replacement contracts will have the same scope and geographic coverage as the incumbent contracts. Work includes: review of as-built drawings and records, interviews with on-site personnel as required, creation and manipulation of CADD files and Geographic Information System (GIS) shape files, pavement inspection surveys, entry of data into the PAVER database, generation of Pavement Condition Indices and pavement maintenance and rehabilitation (M&R) work planning using PAVER software, preparing Pavement Management System (PMS) Implementation Summary Reports, testing, updating and maintenance of the PAVER/PCASE software, and non-destructive testing of pavements.

The following "PAVER/PCASE Pavement Management System Implementation CONUS, Alaska and Hawaii" IDC’s for this scope/requirement are nearing expiration, and require replacement:

W9128F19D0025

W9128F19D0026

W9128F19D0027

There is a $20M capacity and an ordering period not to exceed five years (a one-year base period, plus four one-year option periods). The new IDC will have a contract capacity that is anticipated to be approximately $25M for all new IDCs awarded with a five-year ordering period.
