DHS CBP Southwest Border Construction 2025 - 2030

The Department of Homeland Security Customs and Border Protection established this Master IDIQ on October 31, 2025, for southwest border construction work, with ordering authority through October 30, 2030. The vehicle carries a combined potential value of $25.59 billion across 29 task orders, with $24.08 billion already obligated (94% of potential value). All task orders are unrestricted—no set-asides apply.

The work is exclusively border barrier and wall construction across multiple Texas sectors (Rio Grande Valley, Laredo, Del Rio, Big Bend, El Paso, Hudspeth County) and New Mexico (Hidalgo County), including vertical barriers, waterborne barriers, design-build projects, and detection systems. Recent orders span firm fixed-price contracts with performance periods extending into 2028, with obligated values ranging from $14.99 million to $2.83 billion per order.

Fisher Sand & Gravel Co. dominates the vehicle, holding 12 orders worth $13.16 billion combined potential value—roughly 51% of all contracted value. Barnard Construction Company, Incorporated follows with 5 orders valued at $4.67 billion, and SLS Federal Services LLC holds 3 orders worth $3.28 billion. Spencer Construction LLC has 5 orders worth $2.36 billion. These four firms account for approximately 94% of combined potential value; the remaining four primes (including Granite Construction Company and Cochrane USA Inc.) hold a narrow long tail.

Ordering activity has accelerated significantly: six task orders were awarded in 2025 (between November and December), while 23 orders have been awarded year-to-date in 2026. The most recent award occurred June 26, 2026. All orders fund CBP exclusively—no customer diversification exists on this vehicle.

With more than four years of ordering authority remaining and only 6 percent of potential value unobligated, this vehicle is in heavy execution phase. Competition for new orders will depend on remaining capacity and CBP's remaining construction priorities within the five-year window.
