CDM Constructors Inc.

CDM Constructors Inc., a Boston-based engineering and construction subsidiary of global firm CDM Smith Inc., operates as a prime contractor delivering design-build, design-bid-build, and construction management services to the Department of Defense and federal civilian agencies, with all recent awards structured as full-and-open competitive contracts carrying no socioeconomic set-asides.

The company's federal footprint spans 115 prime awards (100% of its recent tracked activity) valued at $27.57 billion in combined potential value, with $516.1 million obligated to date—a 2% execution rate typical of IDIQs and MATOCs carrying multi-year ceilings. CDM Constructors is positioned as one of several multiple-award holders on major DoD construction vehicles rather than as a dominant single-award prime. Corporate structure includes CDM Constructors as a subsidiary of CDM Smith Inc., with CDM Smith itself holding parallel federal relationships alongside three named joint ventures: Cdm-Alberici JV, CDM / Cape, A Joint Venture, and CDM Smith-Arkel A Joint Venture.

Customer concentration clusters heavily on international military construction in Israel and broader DoD installation support. The top five funding agencies by award count—USAID (38 awards, $1.09 billion), Army European Command (16 awards, $482.1 million), Army Corps of Engineers Middle East District (11 awards, $1.1 billion), USAID Pakistan (10 awards, $151.8 million), and Department of Homeland Security Coast Guard (5 awards, $572.2 million)—account for 70% of tracked awards. However, potential-value concentration tells a different story: the Air Force Civil Engineer Center (2 awards, $15 billion), Army Corps of Engineers Savannah (1 award, $5 billion), and Army Corps of Engineers Louisville (2 awards, $2 billion) anchor the dollar value through three massive multi-year IDIQs awarded in 2025–2026. This divergence signals that CDM Constructors holds seats on critical government-wide construction vehicles but has not yet driven substantial task-order volume against the largest ceilings.

CDM Constructors' primary vehicles include the Comprehensive Construction & Engineering (C2E) contract with Air Force Civil Engineer Center ($15 billion ceiling, awarded September 30, 2025, completion September 29, 2030), the Army Corps of Engineers Middle East Israel Construction MATOC ($900 million ceiling, awarded December 31, 2025), the Naval Facilities Engineering Command Indo-Pacific MACC ($990 million, awarded April 18, 2025), the Army Corps of Engineers Puerto Rico Power System Stabilization contract ($5 billion, awarded September 28, 2023), the Army Corps of Engineers Louisville ERCIP MATOC ($2 billion, awarded April 17, 2026), the USACE Poland Design Build/Design Bid Build Construction MATOC ($98 million, awarded September 19, 2024), and the Israel South DBB Construction MATOC (multiple awards, $50 million ceiling). A terminated $500 million single-award contract with the U.S. Mission in West Bank and Gaza (BUILD 4 TOMORROW) ran through February 2025. CDM Constructors also holds a $49 million single-award prefabricated concrete elements IDIQ with ENDIST Middle East (awarded September 30, 2025) and maintains standing on the Air Force's C2E vehicle.

Recent concrete work includes a $33.1 million definitive contract awarded December 12, 2025, for design-bid-build construction of ammunition storage facilities and support infrastructure (two large facilities, seven small facilities, equipment integration plant, roads, utilities, electrical systems, drainage) in Israel for the Israeli Air Force, completion December 14, 2027. A $13.61 million delivery order under the Israel North DBB Construction MATOC (awarded December 30, 2024) covers construction of an infirmary and associated infrastructure at a military site in Israel, including road descoping and extension and security fence work, completion January 9, 2027. Other representative orders include a $7.04 million delivery for prefabricated concrete elements to Israeli military bases (awarded September 30, 2025, completion February 17, 2026), a $4.33 million repair order for Site 416 in Israel (awarded October 10, 2024, completion October 10, 2025), and a $4.178 million runway and taxiway rehabilitation at Site 20190 in Israel (awarded March 2, 2025, completion March 25, 2026). CDM Constructors also received initial delivery orders under its largest vehicles: a $10,000 order under the Louisville ERCIP MATOC (awarded April 17, 2026) and a $3,000 order under the Air Force C2E vehicle (awarded September 30, 2025), both representing minimum-guarantee task orders typical of multiple-award IDIQ structures.

Activity has accelerated in 2025–2026, with 11 awards placed in 2025 and 3 in early 2026 compared to 5–7 annually in prior years; the five-year trajectory shows growth driven by recent IDIQ awards rather than task-order volume. Five awards carrying combined potential value of $46.7 million face ultimate completion in the next twenty-four months, exposing CDM Constructors to recompete risk on those delivery orders and underlying vehicle renewals. The company's NAICS profile is split between Other Management Consulting Services (50 awards) and Commercial and Institutional Building Construction (36 awards), with Engineering Services (6 awards), Highway/Street/Bridge Construction (4 awards), and equipment rental (3 awards) in supporting roles, reflecting a portfolio spanning consulting, design, and construction delivery across domestic and international projects. CDM Constructors operates internationally across the Indo-Pacific, Middle East (particularly Israel), Eastern Europe (Poland), and Caribbean (Puerto Rico), with administrative oversight centered in Boston.
