## Description

Update 2 Sept 2026 – Release of Government Responses to Industry Questions.

See attachment: QnA - Gov Responses - 2Sept2026 Amendment 1 (25 Aug 26) Updates: "Presolicitation" This MACH1_AOI opportunity is updated with the following changes: 1. Previous Versions published as a "Special Notice" (Posting Type) were deleted & replaced with this "Presolicitation" posting 2. "Related Notice" block now reflects the associated MACH1_Parent Notice [FA8903-OT-MACH1] Original AOI Posting (21 Aug 2026) "Special Notice" This Area of Interest (AOI) is published under the Modernized Agile Construction Horizons (MACH1) Umbrella Program Notice.

All submissions must adhere to the procedures and guidelines outlined in the parent MACH1 framework document unless otherwise tailored herein. 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.
