AI Contract Overview
The 772nd Enterprise Sourcing Squadron is seeking innovative commercial design and engineering partners under the Modernized Agile Construction Horizons (MACH1) Umbrella Program to develop and construct rapidly deployable Earth-Covered Munitions (ECM) storage facilities at Dyess AFB, Texas. This effort is divided into two lines of effort: LOE 1 for Design and Planning and LOE 2 for Physical Construction. The primary objective is to bypass traditional military construction bottlenecks using advanced formwork, rapid-curing materials, or modular structural arches to achieve a mission-ready facility within a 12-month timeframe. The project has a target budget not to exceed 6,000,000 dollars for both design and construction, with goals to reduce traditional build timelines by 30 percent and costs by 20 percent. Any resulting agreement will be an Other Transaction Agreement executed under the statutory authority of 10 U.S.C. 2808a. Technical requirements are stringent, requiring full compliance with UFC 4-420-01 and the achievement of a 7-bar headwall designation from the Department of Defense Explosives Safety Board to safely store up to 500,000 lbs of Hazard Division 1.1 explosives. Interested parties must submit a Phase 1 Solution Brief by September 9, 2026, which will be evaluated based on technical merit, speed to design completion, and company viability. Evaluation criteria include demonstrated experience with at least three completed projects in the last 10 years totaling at least 10 million dollars in value related to explosives safety or rapid commercial construction.

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.
