The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), New Orleans District , is excited to announce an Industry Day focused on a Design-Build Indefinite-Quantity Multiple Award Task Order Contract (IDIQ MATOC) with a total shared capacity not to exceed (NTE) $99M to meet the requirements of designing plans (to include preparing design documentation, undergoing USACE engineering review, and acquiring any required permits) for providing localized non-structural solutions in the form of structure elevations for residents and dry floodproofing for commercial buildings to support eligible properties in the Southwest Coastal Louisiana Nonstructural Coastal Storm Risk Management Project (SWCLA). These properties identified during feasibility are situated in the eligible lowest-lying floodplain. Of these properties, it is estimated 320 can be floodproofed under current funding availability. The remaining use of this MATOC’s ordering capacity will be reliant upon future funding of SWCLA or similar projects in the region.
