The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) is soliciting qualified design‑build teams to deliver the FY28 KC‑46A Aircraft Beddown Infrastructure Program at Altus Air Force Base, Oklahoma. The effort entails designing and constructing three major hangar complexes and associated airfield infrastructure under a progressive design‑build (PDB) approach, funded by a $235 M not‑to‑exceed ceiling. Selection is qualifications‑based, with up to three teams invited to pitch presentations before a Phase 1 Other‑Transaction (OT) award for design and pre‑construction services, followed by a Phase 2 construction award. • Three primary facilities: a general‑maintenance hangar ($109 M), a multipurpose corrosion‑control hangar ($104 M), and a simulator‑facility expansion ($22 M). • Mandatory bonding capacity of at least $300 M and CMMC Level 1 cyber compliance. • Timeline: SOQ due 7 Oct 2026, pitch presentations 26‑29 Oct 2026, Phase 1 OT award 30 Oct 2026, with construction slated for FY 2028. • Emphasis on past performance, open‑book cost validation, collaborative chemistry, and risk‑management in a large‑scale, mission‑critical aviation environment.
