Quick Summary

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Omaha District (NWO) is hosting an Industry Day for the Survivable Airborne Operations Center (SAOC) Program and the 2-Bay Maintenance Hangar and Taxiway Construction at Offutt Air Force Base (AFB), Nebraska. This event, scheduled for January 22, 2026, aims to provide information and gather industry feedback on this significant construction requirement, estimated to be over $500,000,000.

Scope of Work

The primary focus is a 280,200 SF 2-bay maintenance hangar designed to accommodate two Boeing 747-8i aircraft. This facility will include an Aircraft Maintenance Unit (AMU), Consolidated Tool Kit (CTK) space, and contractor logistics support (CLS) supply space. Construction involves concrete foundation, steel high bay, standing seam metal roof, dual bridge cranes, motorized hangar doors, fire alarm/suppression systems, administrative areas, secure spaces, and sensitive/Special Access Program spaces. The project also includes utilities, pavements, site improvements, communications, and cybersecurity measures for facility-related control systems. Additionally, the overall SAOC program involves other potential projects such as a 1-Bay Fuel Cell Hangar, Operations and Training Facility, Fire Station, and Supply Storage Facility.
