- Value of up to $150 million over five years
Los Alamos National Laboratory has awarded a master task order agreement in which three small businesses will compete for environmental work worth up to $150 million over five years. The businesses each have offices in northern New Mexico.
The agreement is for technical services for the Laboratory’s Environmental Programs directorate and includes work such as environmental engineering design, regulatory support, risk assessment and reporting.
The companies chosen are Terranear PMC, Navarro Research and Engineering, Inc., and Adelante Consulting, Inc. The agreement is for three years with two additional one-year options. Task orders under this agreement will be competitively bid among the three companies based on available funding.
“Their excellent safety records and technical expertise make these companies valuable partners in providing a high level of environmental service to northern New Mexico,” said Jeff Mousseau, associate director for environmental programs at the Laboratory.
“Having local companies of this high caliber working with us helps to ensure that we complete our environmental mission effectively and efficiently,” said Pete Maggiore, assistant manager for the National Nuclear Security Administration’s Los Alamos Field Office Environmental Projects Office.
The current master task order agreement is the fourth Los Alamos has awarded to support environmental cleanup work in the past two years, with plans to award two more in the coming year.
