The 772nd Enterprise Sourcing Squadron, in coordination with the Air Force Civil Engineer Center, is seeking an innovative commercial partner under the Modernized Agile Construction Horizons (MACH1) Umbrella Program to upgrade Military Working Dog kennel facilities at Joint Base San Antonio Lackland and the Chapman Annex. The project is structured into two lines of effort, with the current focus on Line of Effort 1, which entails the design and planning of facilities capable of housing and training 850 dogs. The objective is to develop a mature, site-specific design package using non-traditional construction methods, such as Engineered Tensile Facilities, Industrialized Construction, or 3D-printed and additive techniques, to bypass traditional military construction timelines. The resulting structures must have an anticipated lifespan of approximately 40 years and strictly adhere to the Animal Welfare Act, DoD Unified Facilities Criteria, and specific Air Force veterinary and security mandates. Any resulting agreement will be executed as an Other Transaction Agreement under the statutory authority of 10 U.S.C. section 2808a. While the current phase focuses on design, the rough order of magnitude target budgets for construction are not to exceed 160 million dollars for Lackland AFB and 180 million dollars for the Chapman Annex. Interested partners must submit a Phase 1 Solution Brief by September 11, 2026. This brief is limited to five pages, excluding the title page, and must detail the technical approach, a high-level milestone schedule, and company credentials, including three completed projects exceeding 20 million dollars using non-traditional methods within the last decade. Submissions will be evaluated based on technical merit, speed to design completion, and company viability to determine eligibility for a Phase 2 pitch session.

Request for Lease Proposal (RFLP) Enhanced Use Leasing Project Davis-Monthan Air Force Base, AZ
Solicitation # AFCEC26R0003RFLP
The Department of the Air Force is soliciting proposals for an Enhanced Use Lease (EUL) project at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base in Tucson, Arizona. This non-FAR real estate transaction involves a long-term sublease of approximately 500 acres of land, currently held by the Government under a Master Lease with the City of Tucson. The objective is to select one or more lessees to finance, develop, and operate private commercial improvements on the property. While the current Master Lease expires on June 30, 2052, the Government intends to extend it to allow for sublease terms of up to 50 years with potential for further renewal. A mandatory requirement of the project is the relocation and construction of a new Combat Arms Training and Maintenance (CATM) facility. This facility must include two 50-meter small arms ranges for 5.56mm and 9mm training, one 800-meter range for 7.62mm training, and a 10,000 square foot administrative and classroom building. Lessees are responsible for all development costs, including the relocation of installation boundary fencing and the provision of payment and performance bonds. The project must comply with Davis-Bacon wage standards, the Buy American Act, and specific environmental land use controls. The Government will utilize a best-value proposal selection strategy, evaluating offerors based on their project description, return to the Government, organizational experience, and project plan. Proposals are due by November 2, 2026, and must include a financial pro forma in Excel and a narrative limited to 40 pages. Selected lessees must maintain comprehensive insurance coverage and employ a Government-approved independent construction consultant to certify that all work meets applicable federal, state, and local codes.
