ENDIST Ft Worth Vertical Construction Multiple Award Task Order Contract

The Department of the Army Corps of Engineers Engineering District Fort Worth established this master IDIQ for vertical construction on September 30, 2021, with a combined potential value of $620.1 million and ordering authority through September 21, 2026 — approximately two months remaining. The vehicle is fully set aside for small businesses, though nearly 80% of task orders awarded have been placed without set-aside, indicating that non-small-business primes are competing and winning under the vehicle's small-business structure.

Twenty task orders have been awarded across four years of activity, with peak ordering in 2022 (seven orders). Recent momentum has slowed to one order in 2025 and one order year-to-date through September. The combined task-order portfolio stands at $224.3 million in potential value, with $211.7 million obligated — 94% of combined potential already committed. This high obligation rate, paired with the vehicle's approach to the ordering deadline, indicates limited remaining capacity for new work.

The scope spans military construction (MILCON), sustainment, restoration and maintenance (SRM), and international and interagency services, encompassing design-build and design-bid-build projects. Awarded orders show actual work focused on facility renovations and new construction at Fort Bliss, Fort Cavazos (formerly Fort Hood), Joint Base San Antonio locations, Kirtland Air Force Base, and an ICE dormitory in El Paso — residential, training, and support facilities with ceiling values typically ranging from $2.8 million to $47.3 million.

Bristol Design Build Services, LLC leads with seven orders and $105.2 million in combined potential value, followed closely by Walga Ross Group 3 JV with seven orders and $74.1 million. These two primes account for 70% of awarded task orders and roughly 80% of combined potential value; Amg-Metro, LLC holds three orders for $28.6 million. Competition concentrates heavily on the customer side: the Fort Worth District represents 90% of task orders and 91% of combined potential value, with minimal spillover to other Army Corps of Engineers offices.

All task orders use firm fixed price and design-build or design-bid-build delivery. The small-business set-aside at the vehicle level has not translated to set-aside task orders — 80% of orders are unrestricted, four orders (20%) are designated Total Small Business.

The overall construction program will include, but not limited to: dormitories, dining facilities, classrooms, air traffic control towers, munitions training, office space, chapels, operations centers, warehouses, headquarter buildings, vehicle maintenance shops, supply support facilities, barracks, laboratories, instructional buildings, joint operations centers, checkpoints, utilizing the Design-Build (DB) and Design-Bid-Build (DBB) process. The scope of work includes new construction, in addition to maintenance, repairs, and alterations.
