CBP in Motion: Nogales I-19 Checkpoint Build

U.S. Customs and Border Protection is seeking architectural and engineering design and new construction services through a design-build approach for a new checkpoint and supporting facilities adjacent to the existing Nogales I-19 Checkpoint in Amado, Arizona, along Interstate 19. The project will be executed under the Design-Build OB3 IDIQ contract vehicle and aims to enhance operational capacity and efficiency at this critical border entry point. The scope includes comprehensive planning, design, and construction of the checkpoint infrastructure, with the place of performance specifically located between Amado and Tubac in Arizona. The requirement is forecasted under NAICS code 236220, which corresponds to commercial and institutional building construction, with no set-aside specified for small businesses or other categories. Jon Lasell is the primary point of contact for technical inquiries and can be reached at 817-751-1537 or jon.r.lasell@cbp.dhs.gov, while David Harrod serves as the Small Business Specialist and can be contacted at 202-553-6456 or david.k.harrod@cbp.dhs.gov for matters related to small business participation. The project is part of CBP's broader initiative to modernize border infrastructure and improve processing capabilities along key transportation corridors.
