Quick Summary
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), in support of the Defense Health Agency (DHA), is planning a significant program for deferred maintenance, repairs, and renovations at 12 military treatment facilities (MTFs) nationwide. This initiative, funded by recent legislation, aims to enhance healthcare infrastructure for service members. USACE hosted a Virtual Industry Day on June 4, 2026, and is conducting market research via a Sources Sought notice, with responses due June 12, 2026.
Program Overview
This program addresses a backlog of essential repairs, system replacements, and infrastructure upgrades in MTFs. The effort involves major repair and minor construction, with individual contracts expected to range from $100M to $500M. USACE anticipates awarding 12 separate, stand-alone contracts (not MATOCs or SATOCs) for these projects.
Scope of Work
Work encompasses architectural, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, fire protection, and instrumentation. Projects will focus on renovating existing footprints, not new additions, and may include Initial Outfitting (IO) and medical equipment. Contractors must have extensive knowledge of medical facility operations, minimize interference with daily operations, implement infection control processes, and comply with Joint Commission requirements for construction in occupied medical facilities.
Target Locations
Initial sites include Naval Medical Center - Portsmouth, VA; Naval Medical Center (Balboa) - San Diego CA; David Grant USAF Medical Center - Travis Air Force Base, CA; Womack Army Medical Center - Fort Bragg, NC; Madigan Army Medical Center - Joint Base Lewis-McChord, WA; Brooke Army Medical Center – JB San Antonio, TX; and Blanchfield Army Community Hospital - Fort Campbell, KY. Additional sites under consideration include Fort Carson, CO; Eglin Air Force Base, FL; Nellis Air Force Base, NV; and Camp Lejeune, NC. The full "Big 12" list includes Eglin AFB, BAMC, Tripler AMC, NMCSD, NMCP, Madigan AMC, Womack AMC, BACH, Evans ACH, NMCCL, MOMMC, and DGMC.
Contract Details
- Contract Type: Stand-alone Design-Build awards are anticipated. USACE is evaluating various acquisition strategies including traditional Design-Build, Progressive Design-Build, Design-Build to Budget, and Other Transactional Authorities (OTA).
- NAICS Code: 236220 (Commercial & Institutional Building Construction)
