The U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), operating under the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), will award a substantial indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contract valued at up to $100 million.
The agency currently seeks a qualified industry partner for a firm-fixed-price contract to execute comprehensive design and construction services aimed at upgrading facilities across key border regions.
This major infrastructure effort directly supports the agency’s core mission to secure the nation’s borders by ensuring its facilities remain modern and functional.
The awarded contractor will manage all phases of facility improvement, requiring the provision of tools, supplies, equipment, and labor necessary for construction, renovation, upgrades, repair, and maintenance activities.
Beyond physical construction, the selected partner assumes responsibility for critical preliminary phases, including project management, programming and concept development, and site surveys. Furthermore, the contract requires the contractor to perform building information modeling and incorporate historical preservation considerations where necessary.
This significant procurement covers multiple CBP locations spanning five states: California, Texas, Michigan, New York, and Washington. All design-build construction projects executed under this contract must strictly comply with all applicable federal, state, and local laws and regulations.
The Department of Homeland Security’s Customs and Border Protection intends to issue the official proposal solicitation on or around December 12, with the contract award anticipated during the third quarter of fiscal year 2026.
Industry partners submitted capability statements by November 5 to express interest. The maximum period of performance for the contract stands at five years, concluding in March 2031, should the agency exercise all available options.
