    Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command (NAVFAC) Atlantic awarded CDM Federal Programs Corporation an indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contract (N62470-25-D-0007) to provide professional services in support of the Navy’s Public Works Directorate, with specific emphasis on the Utilities Privatization (UP) program across U.S. Navy and U.S. Marine Corps installations worldwide. The contract has a maximum value of $90 million, includes a 12-month base period with four one-year options, and will not exceed 60 months, with completion no later than Sept. 18, 2030.

    Under the contract, CDM Federal Programs Corporation will deliver specialized expertise in electrical, mechanical and civil utility systems to support NAVFAC’s global utilities infrastructure programs. Services include utility management; operations and maintenance; asset inventory and management; electric and steam production and distribution; water and wastewater treatment; wastewater and stormwater collection; cybersecurity and control systems; advanced metering; energy management and security; and regulatory compliance. The contractor also will support development of UP contract documents, technical libraries and cost models essential for competitively awarding long-term privatization contracts.

    The UP program, authorized under Section 2688 of Title 10, U.S. Code, enables the Department of the Navy to privatize installation utility systems through 50-year contracts with commercial entities. By transferring ownership and responsibility for recapitalization, operation and maintenance, the Navy can address degraded utility services and execute financed capital improvement plans that strengthen mission assurance.

    “This award is a critical enabler of Navy priorities — lethality, readiness and warfighting — by ensuring our utility systems are safe, reliable and resilient,” said Grant Morris, Public Works Utilities director for NAVFAC Atlantic. “The UP program allows us to recapitalize aging infrastructure, improve regulatory compliance and secure energy systems that directly support our warfighters and tenant commands.”

    No funds are obligated at the time of award. The contract includes a $10,000 minimum guarantee that will be obligated on the first task order using fiscal year 2025 Operations and Maintenance, Navy funds.

    The contract was competitively procured via the System for Award Management Contract Opportunities website using a best-value source selection. Three proposals were received. Award was based on nonprice factors — including corporate experience; technical and management approach; safety; small-business utilization and participation; and past performance — and price to determine overall best value to the government.

    Work will be performed at Department of the Navy installations within the continental United States, the Caribbean, Europe, Africa and Southwest Asia. NAVFAC Atlantic, Norfolk, Virginia, is the contracting activity.

    NAVFAC Atlantic plans, builds, sustains and modernizes shore and expeditionary infrastructure that enables Navy and Marine Corps readiness across the Atlantic theater. NAVFAC Atlantic delivers engineering and acquisition excellence in construction and public works; environmental stewardship and remediation; real estate and property management; facility-related control systems cybersecurity; weight-handling oversight; ocean facilities; and expeditionary engineering and logistics to provide resilient, affordable solutions that strengthen deterrence and warfighting advantage. Headquartered in Norfolk, Virginia, NAVFAC Atlantic supports Navy and Marine Corps operations worldwide through disciplined contracting, innovative engineering and trusted partnerships.
