Ballistic Missile Defense Program Architectural & Engineering Services

The Army Corps of Engineers Engineering Support Center Huntsville awarded this Master IDIQ on October 17, 2019, to provide architectural and engineering services for ballistic missile defense facility designs, with ordering authority expiring October 16, 2024—the vehicle is no longer active.

The combined potential value across 54 task orders stands at $198.8 million, with $169 million obligated (85% of potential). Three primes dominate: Black & Veatch Special Projects Corp. holds 31 orders worth $84.2 million in combined potential value; AECOM and Tetra TECH as a joint venture hold 14 orders worth $67 million; and Jacobs Government Services Company holds 9 orders worth $47.6 million. No other primes are awarded under this vehicle.

Awarded task orders span design phases, construction support, and studies for missile launch facilities, radar installations, test ranges, and administrative buildings across domestic and overseas locations. Representative recent work includes design-build for the Sentinel Operations Group facility at Malmstrom Air Force Base, Montana ($10.8 million, obligated January 2026); THAAD design-during-construction services ($8.6 million ceiling, obligated December 2025); a utility corridor design-build RFP at Francis E. Warren Air Force Base, Wyoming ($28.4 million, obligated July 2025); and weapons generation facility full design at Dyess Air Force Base, Texas ($20.6 million, obligated April 2025). Task order values range from under $100 thousand for specialized electrical studies to $28 million for major facility design efforts.

The Army Corps of Engineers Engineering District Alaska is the largest customer by order count, with 22 orders totaling $26.5 million in potential value, concentrated on Fort Greely installations. The Missile Defense Agency, Air Force bases, and other Army districts represent the remainder of the customer base across 14 distinct funding agencies.

All 54 task orders carry no set-aside designation. Ordering activity peaked in 2024 with 12 orders, then declined to 9 in 2025 and 1 in 2026, reflecting the vehicle's post-expiration status. The most recent award is dated January 28, 2026, suggesting final task orders were placed before the October 2024 cutoff date.

The objective of this IDIQ is to provide technical support for designs in support of new and existing facilities/sites, including facility/sites ancillary structures, to further the deployment of the Missile Defense Programs for the Government. Specific A-E Services requirements are expected to include, but will not be limited to the preparation of design criteria, architectural and engineering designs, specifications, design-related analyses and studies, economic analyses and cost estimates for missile launch, radar, test and evaluation, administrative and training facilities. Additional support may include environmental documentation, permits, special studies, and other environmental activities as required by federal, state and local laws and regulations; feasibility studies, other studies, geotechnical investigations and topographical mapping services, programmatic support services, manuals, as-built drawings, and engineering and design support during construction.
