Quick Summary

The Department of the Navy, NAVFACSYSCOM MID-ATLANTIC, is soliciting proposals for the construction of the P993/995 F-35 Aircraft Sustainment Center and Composite Repair Facility at Marine Corps Air Station (MCAS) Cherry Point, NC. This is a Firm Fixed-Price (FFP) contract under an Early Contractor Involvement (ECI) framework, with two offerors (ECC Atlantic Construction and Walsh Federal) already pre-qualified for Segment II. The project magnitude is over $500,000,000.

Scope of Work

The project involves two major construction efforts:

  • F-35 Sustainment Center (P993): A 255,461 SF depot-level hangar to support 20 F-35 aircraft, including maintenance bays, four paint booths, administrative space, aircraft part modification and tool shops, and a secure area built to ICD705 standards. The main facility features precast structural concrete panels, pile-supported foundation, slab on grade, and a cross-laminated timber roof deck.
  • Composite Repair Facility (P995): A 105,755 SF consolidated depot-level facility for advanced composites and rotor blade repair. This includes a composite repair and manufacturing shop (disassembly, kitting, production control, clean parts, assembly, climate-controlled dirty room, bonding room, clean room, classrooms, engineering/laboratory space) and an aircraft rotor blade repair shop (disassembly, staging, dirty room, sanding pit, bonding room).
  • Site Development: Includes utility improvements for Hancock Village, a taxiway with a bridge, and an aircraft parking apron.

Contract Details

  • Contract Type: Firm Fixed-Price (FFP)
  • Period of Performance: 15 calendar days for commencement after notice to proceed, and 1,461 calendar days for completion.
  • Magnitude: Over $500,000,000

Submission & Evaluation

  • Proposals Due: April 21, 2026, 06:00 PM ET.
