Incumbent Analysis (see Incumbents section for more detail)
This opportunity appears to have a confirmed incumbent and/or closely related prior contract based on multiple GSA/PBS Region 7 “Regional General Construction with Design Build Capabilities” IDIQ awards under 47PH0821D0004 through 47PH0821D0012, all awarded during 02/04/21–08/03/26. The listed awardees—Brasfield & Gorrie, Whiting-Turner Contracting Company, Ross Group Construction Corporation, The Robins & Morton Group, Sauer Construction, and Hensel Phelps Construction—performed regional general construction with design-build capabilities for GSA/PBS, which aligns with the current Phase II design-build courthouse scope and suggests continuity in the same agency program structure.
