Vighter, LLC Awarded Over $1 Billion Dollar U.S. Customs and Border Protection Contract

Vighter has been awarded a five-year contract by The Department of Homeland Security, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP). This contract is valued at an excess of $1 Billion dollars to provide program management and medical screening at multiple CBP stations along the Southwest Border.

“We are extremely honored to be selected to provide Medical Screening Services for Customs and Border Protection. Our Vice President of Business Development, Tom Harrison, put together an amazing team of partners and we are all extremely excited to provide these critical services over the next five years,” says Jeremy Calvert, CEO at Vighter, LLC.

From 2014 to 2015 Vighter performed as a subcontractor for its large business partner, Acuity International (formerly CHSi) on the CBP Medical Screening Services contract. In 2019, Vighter set out to compete for this contract by submitting a proposal to the GSA for a 621-I schedule contract. In May 2020, Vighter received its 621-I contract award and continued capture activities to improve its chances of winning the CBP Medical Screening Services contract. Mr. Tom Harrison was brought in as VP of Business Development in 2021 due to his experience winning large contracts and he set out to win the CBP contract. He strategically formed a team of dynamic business partners, including Acuity International, Valor Healthcare, SOS International, North American Rescue Medical Depot, Council for Logistics Research, AMI Federal Services, and Spectrum Healthcare Resources. The team worked tirelessly to plan, draft, revise, and publish a proposal that resulted in this amazing contract award.
