- Latest win sees Arcadis team providing Architect-Engineer services to support military construction projects across Europe
Arcadis, a global leader in intelligence-driven sustainable design, engineering, and consultancy solutions, announced today that it has been awarded two shared $249 million, indefinite delivery multiple-award task order contracts for Architect-Engineer (A-E) Services with the US Army Corps of Engineers, Europe District. The first contract supports Military Construction (MILCON) projects valued at over $500,000, and the second supports small-scale projects and non-MILCON projects valued at under $500,000, such as the design of fuel facilities, administrative buildings, or storage facilities, across Germany, Poland, the Czech Republic, Belgium, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Norway, and Denmark.
Arcadis will be working as part of a 50:50 joint venture team with Pond & Company. The contracts support the USACE Europe District’s mission to deliver design and engineering services aligned with both US and host nation requirements in support of the US military. The Arcadis-Pond JV will deliver multidisciplinary A-E services for both contracts, including facility design, planning, construction inspection, environmental documentation, and the preparation of design-build and design-bid-build RFP packages.
Alan Brookes, CEO at Arcadis, said, “Our long-standing relationship with the US Army Corps of Engineers reflects a shared commitment to delivering high-quality infrastructure that meets the evolving needs of the US military and local communities. From supporting environmental and PFAS remediation efforts across the United States to delivering complex facility designs in Europe, our teams bring global expertise with a strong understanding of local contexts. This latest contract builds on that partnership, bringing in our architecture and engineering expertise and reinforcing our role in helping deliver sustainable, resilient solutions where they are needed most.”
Bob Ruch, Executive Vice President at Pond, added: “This award reflects the strength of the Arcadis-Pond JV and our long-standing commitment to supporting US military readiness through world-class design and planning services. With deep roots in Europe and unmatched Department of Defense expertise, our team is uniquely positioned to deliver complex infrastructure solutions that meet mission requirements and local standards.”
The Arcadis-Pond JV combines the strengths of two industry leaders: Arcadis, with its deep host nation relationships and expansive European presence and Pond, with five decades of DoD experience and integrated A-E capabilities. Together, the JV offers extensive in-house capacity, and a trusted network of local and specialized subcontractors positioned to respond quickly and effectively across the area of responsibility.
