# USACE Previews Vandenberg Construction Projects

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Los Angeles District will hold an in-person Industry Day on October 22, 2026, in San Luis Obispo, California, to discuss market research and the anticipated acquisition strategy for five construction projects at Vandenberg Space Force Base. USACE expects to pursue the work through two Progressive Design-Build agreements and one Construction Manager at Risk agreement. This is a market research event, not a solicitation. The notice gives an overall magnitude of **$375 million**, while the listed project estimates total $353.5 million. Registration is required by **October 14, 2026 (9 days remaining)**.

- The listed work is grouped into a $91.5 million Progressive Design-Build package for telecommunications, road and infrastructure improvements, and an entry control facility; a $152 million Progressive Design-Build package for an air traffic control tower, fire station, and base operations facility; and a $110 million Construction Manager at Risk agreement for a Sentinel Re-Entry Vehicle Facility.
- Construction firms and design-build teams can use the Industry Day to learn about USACE’s market research and anticipated acquisition structure before a solicitation is issued. Interested businesses must register by October 14 to attend.
- Firms evaluating the opportunity should note the listed NAICS code, 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction), and compare the project-level estimates with the notice’s $375 million overall magnitude.
