About this IDV
Customs and Border Protection (CBP), a civilian agency within the Department of Homeland Security, awarded a multiple-award indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) master contract to Barnard Spencer Joint Venture on July 18, 2023, with a ceiling value of $4.1 billion and a performance period extending through July 17, 2026. The contract vehicle, designated as a Border Infrastructure IDIQ, was awarded without set-aside provisions through full and open competition and serves as the primary procurement mechanism for CBP's southwestern border modernization initiatives. Barnard Spencer Joint Venture, a for-profit partnership headquartered in Bozeman, Montana, specializes in large-scale border security infrastructure and heavy civil construction services. The IDIQ contract establishes the framework under which CBP issues task orders for the design, construction, and installation of border barrier systems, detection technologies, lighting infrastructure, cabling systems, and related system attributes across multiple geographic locations.
Under this master IDIQ contract, CBP has issued multiple delivery orders totaling approximately $778.4 million in active awards as of September 2025. Two significant active delivery orders include a $219.5 million firm fixed-price task order for construction and installation of approximately 60 miles of border detection, lighting, cabling, and related system attributes in Bard, California, scheduled for completion by April 12, 2028, and a $617.5 million firm fixed-price task order for construction of 23 miles of border wall system and 81 miles of system attributes, including barbed wire fencing, in Weslaco, Texas, with completion targeted for April 7, 2028. Additionally, three delivery orders totaling approximately $294.1 million were terminated in March 2024 pursuant to court injunctions under the Federal Acquisition Regulation's termination for convenience clause, including projects in Tucson, Arizona ($234.84 million), Jacumba Hot Springs, California ($45.96 million), and Naco, Arizona ($13.28 million). All delivery orders were issued on a firm fixed-price basis without set-aside designations, reflecting CBP's competitive procurement approach for border infrastructure modernization across the southwestern United States.
