National Elevator Modernization and Construction

GSA Public Buildings Service awarded a multiple-award Master IDIQ for National Elevator Modernization and Construction on September 4, 2024, with ordering authority extending through September 3, 2029. The vehicle accommodates task orders valued over $1 million for design, construction, and modernization of elevators and escalators in federal buildings nationwide. No set-aside designations apply; competition is full and open to all businesses.

The vehicle is actively being exercised with strong recent momentum. Eighteen task orders have been awarded since September 2024, with obligated value at $57.3 million against combined potential value of $61.3 million—93% of capacity already committed. Activity accelerated sharply from two orders in 2024 to 11 in 2025, then five through mid-2026. Ordering authority remains open for over three years.

Competition concentrates heavily among two dominant primes. TK Elevator Corporation holds seven orders worth $28.4 million combined potential value, while Elevated Technologies Services, LLC holds eight orders worth $26.2 million. Schindler Elevator Corporation has two orders ($5.9 million), and Otis Elevator Company one ($821 thousand). These four primes account for all 18 awarded task orders; TK and Elevated together represent approximately 94% of combined potential value.

Customer concentration is also pronounced. The Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts places the most orders at eight task orders worth $27.6 million combined potential value, representing 45% of the portfolio. GSA Public Buildings Service National Capital Region accounts for two orders worth $16.2 million. The remaining nine customer agencies—including Social Security Administration, Department of Veterans Affairs, Food and Drug Administration, and regional GSA offices—collectively hold six orders worth roughly $17.5 million. Courts-funded work dominates the vehicle.

Individual task-order values range from $13.8 thousand to $13.8 million, with typical awards in the $2 million to $4 million band. Most work carries firm-fixed-price pricing and performance periods of 12 to 36 months, with completion dates extending into 2028. Task orders reflect actual modernization scope: replacing elevator cars, upgrading control systems, modernizing doors and components, and design-build modernization at named federal courthouses and agency buildings. Work is geographically dispersed across continental United States and U.S. territories (St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands; Honolulu, Hawaii).

The vehicle's shared ceiling of $650 million remains substantially underutilized, with less than $62 million of combined potential value awarded. The gap signals room for additional primes to compete on future task orders through 2029.
