ENDIST Sacramento

The Department of the Army Corps of Engineers Engineering District Sacramento, a sub-agency of the Army Corps of Engineers, is the principal civil works and military construction contracting arm for the Sacramento District, procuring engineering, construction, environmental, and real-estate services across the western United States and managing federal facilities.

The district has awarded 9,685 federal contracts with a combined potential value of $12.11 billion since 1996, obligating $12.72 billion cumulatively. Recent activity shows 143 awards in 2022, 148 in 2023, 159 in 2024, 126 in 2025, and 49 year-to-date in 2026, with the latest recorded award dated September 1, 2026. Among 2,133 distinct prime contractors in the portfolio, competitive concentration is highly fragmented by award count, with Sierra Hydrographics and Landology Inc. each holding 20 awards over the last five years (13 percent of recent awards combined). By potential value over the same window, concentration is also highly fragmented, with HHI Corporation and NH1 JV leading at $184.4 million and $157 million in combined potential value respectively (4 percent of recent combined potential value). The set-aside mix reflects heavy reliance on open competition: 53 percent of awards carry no set-aside, while 23 percent are 8(a) sole source, 21 percent are total small business, 2 percent are competitive 8(a), and the remainder are distributed among HUBZone, service-disabled veteran-owned small business, and woman-owned small business designations at 1 percent or below each.

Grant activity at the district is minimal. Two cooperative-agreement awards totaling $933 thousand have been made, with the most recent dated May 1, 2026. The University of California, Davis received one award for $686 thousand, and The Student Conservation Association, Inc. received one for $248 thousand.

Recent contract opportunities span multiple categories. The district is conducting an Industry Day on December 10, 2026 for an upcoming Geotechnical Drilling Multiple Award Task Order Contract (MATOC) under NAICS 541360, with formal solicitation anticipated in February 2027. A design-build solicitation for the F-35 Composite Repair and Training Facility and F-35 Maintenance Facility at Hill Air Force Base, Utah (total program funding of $371.6 million) is pursuing Other Transaction Authority for Construction, with an Industry Day scheduled for November 17, 2026. The district issued a $465 million small-business MATOC pre-solicitation for design-build and design-bid-build construction services across military, IIS, DVA, and civil-works projects, with up to seven indefinite-delivery indefinite-quantity contracts anticipated. Pre-solicitations remain open for Sacramento River East Levee Contract 5 (due October 23, 2026), Grand Island Mitigation Site (due October 27, 2026), and Lower American River erosion-control contracts LAR C3B North and South (both due October 20, 2026), all design-bid-build construction. A definitive solicitation for Natomas pumping-plant renovation (design-bid-build, estimated target range $10 million to $15 million) remains open until November 3, 2026. The district also has multiple retail and professional office-lease solicitations outstanding for Armed Forces Career Centers in Woodland, Fairfield, American Canyon, Danville, Placerville, Fresno, and Salt Lake City, with most due dates in mid-October 2026.
