Request for Information (RFI)

This RFI seeks strategic and actionable input from U.S. industry and private capital to shape U.S. Army modernization. The Army aims to identify financial structures and partnership models that are commercially sustainable and can accelerate modernization efforts. The goal is to explore public-private partnerships to mobilize private capital for Army priorities, leveraging private-sector financing and expertise to address modernization challenges.

The Army is interested in ideas for financing, partnering, and structuring business deals across several strategic investment pillars:

• Energy Resilience and Dominance: Developing reliable energy systems, including power grids and storage.

• Organic Industrial Base: Expanding facilities and investing in technologies for critical Army components and commercial use.

• Strengthening Logistics and Supply Chains: Developing streamlined logistics and autonomous logistics solutions.

• Real Assets and Facilities Utilization: Maximizing Army land use through Enhanced Use Leases for projects like data centers and manufacturing hubs.

• Advanced and Flexible Manufacturing & Technology Adoption: Manufacturing advanced electronics, materials, and dual-use items to build industrial facilities and ensure resilience.

• Critical Minerals and Resource Development: Developing partnerships for dual-use mining and extraction of critical natural resources.

• Questions Due: March 26, 2026, 5:00 PM EST.

• Responses Due: April 02, 2026, 5:00 PM EST.

• Submission Method: Email responses to usarmy.pentagon.mbx.strategic-capital-initiative@army.mil with the subject line: "RFI Response: Private Capital and Market Participant Investments".

• Response Content: Include a point of contact, organizational experience, and a white paper detailing the proposed financial or partnership model. The white paper should address financing, capital structure, governance, operating models, and contracting ideas.

This RFI is for market research only and is not a contract offer. Responses are not binding. The Army is not currently seeking proposals. All costs are borne by the interested party. Not responding does not preclude participation in future RFPs.
