AI Contract Overview
The U.S. Army Aviation and Missile Command (AMCOM), via Army Contracting Command-Redstone Arsenal, is seeking innovative solutions for three benchtop Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) printers to be integrated at Fort Campbell, Fort Hood, and Fort Bragg. These expeditionary additive manufacturing systems are intended to provide point-of-need capabilities for producing structural, environmentally-grade replacement parts, fixtures, and specialized tooling, thereby reducing aircraft-on-ground status and mitigating supply chain lead times. The systems must be compatible with PLA, ABS, ASA, and TPU filaments and be capable of operating in environments ranging from 15 to 38 degrees Celsius with 30 to 70 percent relative humidity. The requirement includes a four-year package covering consumables, software maintenance, warranty, and technical support. This solicitation is issued under the Army Advanced Manufacturing Commercial Solutions Opening and may result in FAR-based firm-fixed-price contracts, non-FAR agreements, or Other Transaction agreements. The selection process is multi-phased, beginning with a Phase 1 evaluation of Solution Briefs based on technical merit, schedule, and viability. Eligible offerors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) and possess a Unique Entity ID. Submissions for Phase 1 must include a one-page Quad Chart, a five-page White Paper, and an Organizational Conflict of Interest analysis. Following Amendment 01, the updated deadline for solution brief submissions is September 10, 2026, at 5:00 PM.

The U.S. Army Aviation and Missile Command (AMCOM) is seeking innovative solutions consisting of three (3) Expeditionary Additive Manufacturing (EAM) Systems for immediate integration at Fort Campbell, Fort Hood, and Fort Bragg. These systems will provide an expeditionary, point-of-need manufacturing capability designed to immediately translate digital technical data packages (TDPs) into structural, environmentally-grade components within tactical maintenance environments.
Establishing expeditionary, point-of-need manufacturing capability at these installations is vital for empowering forward-deployed liaison engineers to manufacture immediate, structurally adequate replacement parts, fixtures, and specialized maintenance tooling on-site. Proactively deploying this capability is essential for overcoming extended supply chain lead times for low-demand, non-flight-safety-essential components, mitigating critical aviation readiness degradation, and significantly reducing prolonged aircraft-on-ground (AOG) status for simple component failures.
The full Call for Solutions document(.pdf), detailing the problem statement, required solution attributes, submission requirements, and evaluation phases, is available in the "Attachments" section below.
All questions regarding this Call must be submitted via email to Melissa Jakes at melissa.d.jakes.civ@army.mil and Morgan McGee at morgan.p.mcgee2.civ@army.mil. The deadline to submit questions for Phase 1 is Wednesday, 26 August 2026, at 12:00 PM Central Time.
The following shall be utilized in the email subject line: " Call for Solution – Advanced Manufacturing Expeditionary Additive Manufacturing (EAM) Systems’
