LOUISVILLE, Ky., July 13, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Arcadis, a leading global design and consultancy organization for natural and built assets, as managing partner in a joint venture (JV) with Bergmann Associates, is pleased to announce its selection to perform architecture and engineering civil works services on projects that bolster resiliency in the US Army Corps of Engineer's (USACE) Great Lakes and Ohio River Division, an area that encompasses 17 states across the US.

The Arcadis-Bergmann Lakes and Rivers JV will provide engineering and architectural planning, design, and construction support as part of a $200 million shared capacity framework contract for resilience work funded by the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law. The work will be worth an estimated $25 million for Arcadis over the next five years.

The scope of work is expected to include the provision of nature-based solutions such as ecological restoration alongside the design of dams, levees, pump stations, bridges, roadways, and canals. The overall framework contract is expected to tackle projects throughout the 17-state area encompassing USACE's Lakes and Rivers Division, improving quality of life for the more than 58 million people who reside in the area.

Arcadis will deliver its digitally enhanced water management services on the projects, including the use of BIM 3D modeling, in addition to its flood damage reduction and dam safety engineering experience. The Arcadis-Bergmann Lakes and Rivers JV has committed to contracting 15% of its work to small business subcontractors, which includes disadvantaged business enterprises and other small businesses in various socio-economic categories.
