CBP Design-Build Construction IDIQ

U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) is awarding a design-build construction Master IDIQ under which orders may be placed through May 10, 2031. The vehicle carries a $10 billion combined ceiling structured as up to 10 multiple awards with individual task orders capped at $15 million each. No set-aside restrictions apply; the procurement is open to all qualified contractors in Commercial and Institutional Building Construction (NAICS 236220). Ordering is active with approximately four years and eight months of authority remaining.

CBP established this vehicle on May 11, 2026, following a phased competitive selection process. Qualification thresholds are substantial: bidders must have completed at least two federal design-build projects valued at $25 million or more within the preceding 15 years and provide bonding capacity of $500 million per task order and $2 billion in aggregate. Evaluation emphasizes bonding capability, technical competence, prior design-build experience, key personnel qualifications, small business subcontracting capacity, and pricing.

Task-order work encompasses the full scope of CBP facility design and construction nationwide, including border patrol stations, checkpoints, sector headquarters, and air facilities throughout the continental United States and Puerto Rico. Minimum task-order value is above $10,000; individual orders are firm-fixed-price. Performance must commence within 15 calendar days of receiving the notice to proceed. Each award carries a five-year contract term from its award date.

The source does not provide data on awarded task orders, prime contractor composition, customer concentration, or obligation status. Because the vehicle was established only three months ago, no portfolio of past orders is yet available to characterize actual work patterns, competitive concentration, or repeat-order velocity. BD assessment should focus on qualification capability and bonding capacity as the binding constraints for entry.
