Design and Construction of Rapidly Deployable Earth-Covered Munitions Storage Facilities at Dyess AFB

This opportunity from the U.S. Air Force's 772nd Enterprise Sourcing Squadron (772 ESS) at Dyess AFB seeks commercial partners for the design and construction of rapidly deployable Earth-Covered Munitions (ECM) storage facilities. - Project issued under the Modernized Agile Construction Horizons (MACH1) Umbrella Program, using an Other Transaction Agreement (OTA) - Two lines of effort: - LOE 1: Design & Planning (site-specific design package, DDESB "7-bar" headwall, environmental controls, blast resistance) - LOE 2: Physical Construction (mission-ready facility within 12 months, up to 500,000 lbs Hazard Division 1.1 explosives) - Government seeks innovative solutions: advanced formwork, rapid-curing materials, modular structural arches, or other commercial methods - Total project cost must not exceed $6 million - No specific OEMs or vendors named; open to new commercial approaches - Strict compliance with DoD explosives safety standards required - Phase 1 submissions due by September 9, 2026; subsequent phases per MACH1 procedures

Description

This Area of Interest (AOI) is published under the Modernized Agile Construction Horizons (MACH1) Umbrella Program Notice. All submissions must adhere to the procedures and guidelines outlined in the parent MACH1 framework document unless otherwise tailored herein. Any resulting agreement will be an Other Transaction Agreement (OTA) executed under the statutory authority of 10 U.S.C. § 2808a.

The 772nd Enterprise Sourcing Squadron (772 ESS) is seeking innovative commercial design  and engineering partners to develop a comprehensive, site-specific design package for rapidly deployable Earth-Covered Munitions (ECM) storage facilities at Dyess AFB, Texas.

The Government requires rapidly deployable Class V munitions storage facilities to support evolving global threats and warfighter readiness. Traditional MILCON processes and standard  ECM build face structural and procedural bottlenecks—ranging from slow curing times to  complex bespoke formwork—that prevent rapid deployment. This AOI seeks architectural and engineering innovations that bypass these traditional bottlenecks.

The Government is looking for design concepts incorporating advanced formwork,  rapid-curing materials, modular structural arches, or other commercial methodologies that  accelerate the timeline while fully maintaining all required blast resistance, structural integrity,  and environmental controls.

There are (2) two lines of effort (LOEs) for this requirement:  LOE 1 - Design & Planning (Design) and LOE 2 - Physical Construction.
