# CBP Awards Unissant $166.4M Vetting Support Contract

U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), within the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), awarded Unissant a potential five-year prime contract valued at **$166.4 million** to continue providing vetting workflow support. The award extends work Unissant has performed for CBP for more than five years, giving procurement professionals a concrete example of a significant incumbent continuation in border-screening support services.

- The potential value and five-year term make this a notable opportunity in CBP vetting support; the previous CBP award listed in the signals was a separate potential $182.3 million contract from 2020.
- For contractors pursuing related work, the continuation underscores the relevance of demonstrated CBP program experience and established vetting-workflow delivery capabilities.
- The Homeland Security Summit is scheduled for November 10, 2026, 13 days after this report; industry stakeholders can use the event for sector engagement.
