This is exiting news!
Looks like DoD will use separate contract vehicles for the work it is funding, even though they and Homeland Security are both using the Army Corps of Engineers as their contracting agency. It is probably just too much for one contracting officer to manage. DHS has two standing contracts (East (Texas) and West), on which they can quickly compete task orders, up to $5 billion worth on each of the two contracts.
DoD is going to issue a series of separate contracts. Their first billion dollars, for 57 miles of barrier, was awarded blazingly fast. Work starts next month.
Military prequalifying contractors for $8B of border wall construction
