# Federal Agencies Plan National Capital Region Projects

The Federal Capital Improvements Program (FCIP) compiles federal agencies’ proposed construction, renovation, building-purchase, and land-acquisition projects in the National Capital Region into a six-year planning program. It is an annual planning and review process—not an appropriation or contract award—so listed projects are potential long-term demand, subject to agency budgets and later procurement. Agencies follow National Capital Planning Commission (NCPC) submission instructions and annual deadlines, with submissions beginning in December and Commission review in July.

- Contractors can use FCIP reports to identify prospective facilities and infrastructure needs, but should not treat listed projects as funded work or active solicitations.
- Agencies must follow NCPC submission instructions and annual deadlines; the program provides a planning window rather than a direct contracting opportunity.
- The related District of Columbia Multi-Year Capital Improvement Plan is another planning reference for capital demand, distinct from a contract award.
