Perkins+Will, Inc.

Perkins+Will, Inc., a foreign-owned architecture and design firm based in Washington, D.C., competes as a prime contractor delivering architectural, engineering, and interior design services to civilian federal agencies on a full-and-open basis, with no use of SBA set-asides across its federal footprint. The firm is a subsidiary of The Perkins & Will Group Ltd., which also owns Nelson Nygaard Consulting Associates and Connetics Transportation Group.

Perkins+Will's capability portfolio centers on design and facility planning: pre-design feasibility studies, construction documentation, conditions assessments, and comprehensive architectural and engineering services for federal buildings and research infrastructure. Recent named work includes a $7.78 million delivery order awarded by the General Services Administration's Public Buildings Service in April 2026 for the design of 1800F and addition of a workshop line item in Washington, D.C., with completion scheduled for July 1, 2029; a $5.16 million delivery order from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Engineering District Louisville in November 2022 for 100% design phase services on the USDA Foreign Agricultural Production Research Laboratory; and an $8.7 million definitive contract from the Smithsonian Institution in June 2023 for multidisciplinary architectural and engineering services for the Bezos Learning Center, including planning, design, and construction administration with LEED and SITES certification performance targets.

Customer concentration splits between federal civilian and health agencies. The top five customers by potential value account for 96% of combined potential across all awards, anchored by the National Institutes of Health Construction (2 awards, $434.6 million combined potential value), the General Services Administration Public Buildings Service Region 5 (3 awards, $153 million), and the GSA Public Buildings Service National Capital Region (8 awards, $60.1 million). By award count, the National Capital Region ranks first with eight awards, followed by the Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 22 with seven awards—signaling a mix of high-value NIH and GSA vehicles underweighted in count but dominant in dollars, with steady recurring work in veterans and courthouse facility design. Perkins+Will holds a newly awarded $400 million multiple-award Indefinite Delivery contract with NIH awarded June 24, 2026, running through June 23, 2032, for architectural and engineering design services supporting NIH facility planning and infrastructure projects. The firm also maintains a $125 million GSA multiple-award IDIQ for nationwide architectural, engineering, and interior design services through November 2027, and previously held a $10 million single-award IDIQ with the Army Corps of Engineers Louisville District (expired June 2026).

Task orders track across the National Architect Engineer Interiors 2016-2021 vehicle (12 task orders, $8.4 million combined potential value) and the National Architecture, Engineering, and Interiors vehicle (7 task orders, $10.8 million combined potential value), reflecting ongoing delivery order activity under GSA's primary architectural services frameworks. Recent activity shows two awards in 2026, three in 2025, and three in 2024. Two awards with ultimate completion dates in the next twenty-four months carry combined potential value of $10.2 million, representing modest near-term recompete exposure. Across SCI-reportable federal service contracts above the $150,000 threshold, Perkins+Will invoiced $5.1 million over fiscal years 2022 through 2024 as a prime, with FY2022 showing $3 million across 5.4 FTEs, declining to $1.9 million across 2.4 FTEs in FY2023, and $115 thousand across 0.1 FTEs in FY2024—a downward SCI trajectory reflecting the firm's shift toward higher-value design delivery orders outside the SCI reporting scope. On SCI-reportable prime contracts, government-paid hourly rates for Perkins+Will labor ran a median of $389.92 per hour, with senior labor pricing through the 90th percentile at $605.82 per hour and junior labor at the 10th percentile around $272.93 per hour. Perkins+Will operates as a 100% prime contractor across its federal footprint with no subcontract awards in the source data, indicating the firm builds and delivers its own multidisciplinary design and engineering teams rather than outsourcing delivery to subcontractors.
