District Context & Mission Impact

This major geotechnical engineering contract is administered by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Jacksonville District. The Jacksonville District manages extensive water resource management, ecosystem restoration (including the Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Plan), beach nourishment, and civil infrastructure initiatives across Florida, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Comprehensive geotechnical subsurface investigation is a critical prerequisite for designing durable dams, levees, coastal structures, foundation systems, and navigation channels. Scope requirements include continuous core drilling, standard penetration testing (SPT), sonic drilling, vibracoring, geophysical and hydrological investigations, and specialized material testing to verify foundational integrity and protect public safety across coastal civil works through 2031.


Contractor Spotlight & Industry Context

Based in Jacksonville, Florida, CSI/TSF JV LLC is a joint venture bringing together specialized expertise in geotechnical engineering, materials testing, field sampling, and environmental science. Bids were solicited via the internet with four competitive proposals received. Executing geotechnical sampling across diverse Southeastern environments—ranging from porous limestone formations to saturated coastal wetlands—requires specialized barge-mounted rigs, sonic drilling equipment, undisturbed sampling tools, and accredited analytical testing laboratories. Partnering with experienced regional geotechnical firms allows USACE to rapidly issue task orders to analyze soil and rock mechanics, accelerating major flood risk management and coastal resilience projects on schedule.
