The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Portland District has awarded Tetra Tech a position on a five-year multiple-award architectural and engineering (A-E) design contract with a shared capacity of $49 million. The agreement covers the delivery of professional design services supporting navigation and water control infrastructure across the district’s area of responsibility.

The contract enables Tetra Tech to contribute technical expertise to a broad portfolio of civil works projects. These include the planning and design of essential assets such as locks, dams, levees, and infrastructure associated with flood zone management. The scope also encompasses advanced technical analysis and computer-based modelling to support dam safety, flood risk management, inland and coastal navigation, and migratory fish passage initiatives.

Under the terms of the award, multidisciplinary teams of engineers, scientists, and technical specialists will work on design and optimization tasks aimed at improving the performance and resilience of existing and future infrastructure. The services are intended to support operational reliability while addressing environmental and safety considerations associated with large-scale water resources systems.

“Tetra Tech has supported USACE to deliver innovative engineering solutions for the nation’s toughest challenges for more than 40 years,” said Dan Batrack, chairman and chief executive officer of Tetra Tech. “We look forward to continuing to use our Leading with Science® approach to design resilient water resources and inland navigation infrastructure, support the safety of local communities, and facilitate economic growth.”

The Portland District contract adds to Tetra Tech’s portfolio of federal water infrastructure assignments, reflecting ongoing demand for specialized A-E design services in navigation, flood management, and water control. The multiple-award structure allows the USACE to draw on a range of qualified providers over the contract period, supporting long-term program delivery and technical flexibility.
