Construction of B-21 Radio Frequency (RF) Hangar

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Kansas City District is pursuing the construction of a Radio Frequency/Measurements Hangar Facility at Whiteman Air Force Base, Missouri, under solicitation number W912DQ26RA019, with a firm-fixed-price, design-bid-build contract structure. The facility will span 57,532 square feet and include one aircraft position, back shops, material storage, administrative spaces, and both unclassified and classified areas, all supported by reinforced concrete foundations replacing the paved area east of Building 9, metal roofing and siding on steel framing, masonry cavity and Concrete Masonry Unit wall assemblies, and powered steel sliding hangar doors. Additional infrastructure will encompass utilities, pavements, and site improvements to ensure full operational capability. The procurement is unrestricted and currently in the pre-solicitation market research phase, as indicated by a sources-sought notice and a Project Labor Agreement (PLA) questionnaire distributed to assess industry input on the potential use of a PLA. The questionnaire seeks information from firms regarding local labor conditions, potential impacts on small business participation, project costs, and whether they would submit a proposal if a PLA were required. The contract’s place of performance is Whiteman AFB, MO, zip code 65305, and key contact for inquiries is David Miller of USACE. The solicitation was posted May 29, 2026, with a response deadline of June 16, 2026; however, a later amendment extended the response date to June 18, 2026. No formal contract value, evaluation factors, or detailed technical specifications have been issued at this stage, as the government is gathering feedback to inform the upcoming full solicitation and determine whether to mandate a PLA for the project. Respondents must provide company name, address, UEI, CAGE code, and point of contact information to participate in the market research.
