About this file
This document is an Engineering Technical Letter (ETL) issued by the Air National Guard (ANG) under the National Guard Bureau (NGB) that establishes design objectives and procedures for architecture and engineering (A-E) services on ANG facilities projects. The ANG ETL 24-02, effective April 5, 2024 with Change 1 dated September 10, 2025, provides comprehensive guidance applicable to both Design-Bid-Build (DBB) and Design-Build (DB) project delivery methods across preliminary design, schematic design, detailed design, and final design phases. The document outlines the specific deliverables required at each design phase, ranging from Type A-1 (15% Concept Proposal) through Type B-3 (100% Final Design), including basis of design documentation, calculations, drawings, specifications, cost estimates, construction schedules, and value engineering studies. The procedures apply to all ANG projects regardless of execution method, including those utilizing U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command (NAVFAC), Air Force Civil Engineer Center (AFCEC), or cooperative agreements. The document mandates compliance with Unified Facilities Criteria (UFC) standards, specifically UFC 1-200-01 (DoD Building Code) and UFC 1-200-02 (High Performance and Sustainable Building Requirements), and incorporates requirements for cybersecurity, antiterrorism, sustainability, and operation security (OPSEC) review prior to public release.
The document establishes clear roles and responsibilities among multiple government entities, including the NGB/A4I (Installations Division), NGB/A4IC (Civil Engineer Technical Branch), Base Civil Engineers (BCE), Design Working Groups (DWG), and Designers of Record (DOR), with the Contracting Officer retaining sole authority to obligate federal funds and modify contracts. Design submittals are routed through the Construction Management Information System (CMIS) with standard review timelines of 21 calendar days after receipt of complete submissions. The ETL requires all design deliverables to be developed under the direction of registered architects or professional engineers in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 52.236-25 and mandates special coordination for Sensitive Compartmented Information Facilities (SCIF), Special Access Program Facilities (SAPF), and projects requiring Explosive Site Plan (ESP) approval from the Department of Defense Explosive Safety Board (DDESB). The document addresses funding through Facility, Sustainment, Restoration, and Modernization (FSRM) and Military Construction (MILCON) programs, with cost estimates subject to review against Maximum Construction Cost (MCC) limits and requirements for Cost and Schedule Risk Analysis (CSRA) and Value Engineering Studies (VES) under specified conditions.

FOREWORD
In accordance with Air Force Instruction 32-1023, the Chiefs of the National Guard Bureau (NGB) and Air Force Reserve develop supplementary instructions and or guidance unique to the Air National Guard (ANG) and Air Force Reserve Component (AFRC) construction programs and oversee management of their respective programs. In accordance with Title 10, U.S.C. Chapter 133 Service, Supply, Procurement, the ANG and the AFRC facilities programs are executed under Title 10. U.S.C., Chapter 1803. As such they may coordinate with Air Force Installation Mission Support Center (AFIMSC) and portions of Air Force Civil Engineer Center (AFCEC), but execute under Title 10, U.S.C., Chapter 1803.
Air National Guard Engineering Technical Letters (ANG ETLs) provide requirements (i.e., defined by users and operational needs) and are intended for use with unified technical requirements published in DoD Unified Facilities Criteria (UFC). ANG ETLs are applicable only to the Air National Guard, and do not represent unified DoD requirements. Differences in requirements between DoD Components as well as local and state agencies may exist due to differences in policies and operational needs.
The UFC system is prescribed by MIL-STD 3007G Standard Practice Unified Facilities Criteria, Facilities Criteria and Unified Facilities Guide Specifications and provides planning, design, construction, sustainment, restoration, and modernization criteria, and applicable to the Military Departments, Defense Agencies, and the DoD Field Activities. The UFC System also includes technical and functional requirements for specific facility types. Headquarters, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (HQUSACE), Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command (NAVFAC), and Air Force Civil Engineer Center (AFCEC) are responsible for administration of the UFC system. Technical content of UFC is the responsibility of the cognizant DoD working group.
ANG ETLs are living documents and will be periodically reviewed, updated, and made available to users as part of the Military Department’s responsibility for providing technical criteria for military construction.
ANG ETLs are effective upon issuance and are distributed only in electronic media from the following source:
• Whole Building Design Guide web site https://www.wbdg.org/ffc/ang/engineering-technical-letters-angetl
Refer to UFC 1-200-01, General Building Requirements, for implementation of new issuances on projects.
POINT OF CONTACT: The point of contact for this ANGETL is Ms. Mindy Leach, Architect of the Air National Guard, mindy.leach.2@us.af.mil

REVISION SUMMARY SHEET
Document: ANG ETL 24-02, Air National Guard Design Objectives and Procedures
Superseding: ANG ETL 24-02, Air National Guard Design Objectives and Procedures, 05 April 2025
Description: This ETL provides specific guidance on how and when to provide a project design deliverable for the ANG. This document is organized into design deliverables and design phases. Requirements for design deliverables, beyond or in more detail of what is already required by a Core UFC, are provided for ANG-only. The requirements for when or to what extent these deliverables are provided are in the Phase chapters.
Reasons for Document: Update procedures to coordinate with current commercial and government standards, procedures, and governing UFC’s.
Impact: Improve efficiency and consistency of design procedures across ANG.
Unification Issues: Design and Submittal procedures contained herein are pertinent to standards, software, and templates used, required, and unified within the ANG, and centered around the ANG organization and operation. ANG activities may be located on active-duty air force bases, air reserve bases, naval air stations/joint reserve bases, or ANG bases and stations which are either independent military facilities or collocated as tenants on civilian-controlled joint civil-military airports. Therefore, design procedures for ANG activities may differ from NAVFAC, USACE, and Air Force operations due to organizational and operational differences.

CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION
1-1 PURPOSE AND SCOPE.
The Air National Guard (ANG) Design Objectives and Procedures, developed by the National Guard Bureau (NGB)/A4I, is established to define the overall objectives in accomplishing the ANG facilities design and construction management program and the procedures to be followed in achieving that end.
1-1.1 Organization of Document.
This document is organized into design policy, roles and responsibilities, design deliverables, and design phases. The design deliverables chapters contain general requirements that apply throughout the design process. For the disciplines, additional information is provided only if it is not already in another UFC; thus, a discipline paragraph may not be provided if the Core UFC already provides the requirements for that deliverable, or the level of completion of that deliverable. Core UFCs are defined and listed in UFC 1-200-01, DoD Building Code.
1-2 APPLICABILITY.
This document is applicable to both Design-Bid-Build (DBB) and Design-Build (DB) projects. Regardless of the execution method (i.e., offload to USACE, NAVFAC, etc.;
Appendix 1031; Facility, Sustainment, Restoration, and Modernization Cooperative Agreement (FSRMCA); or Military Construction Cooperative Agreement (MCCA), this document must be referenced and incorporated into all \1\ agreements and /1/ contracts for pre-design; design; post design/pre-construction award; and post construction award \1\ services /1/ for ANG projects.
1-3 GENERAL BUILDING REQUIREMENTS.
Comply with UFC 1-200-01, DoD Building Code, and UFC 1-200-02, High Performance and Sustainable Building Requirements. Use UFC 1-200-02 in conjunction with UFC 1- 200-01 and the UFC and government criteria referenced therein. UFC 1- 200-01 provides applicability of model building codes and government-unique criteria for typical design disciplines and building systems, as well as for accessibility, antiterrorism, physical security, cybersecurity, high performance and sustainability requirements, and safety. UFC 1-200-02 provides minimum unified requirements and coordinating guidance for planning, designing, constructing, renovating, and maintaining high performance and sustainable facilities that will enhance DoD mission capability by reducing total ownership costs. Use this document in addition to UFC 1-200-01, UFC 1- 200-02, and the UFC and government criteria referenced therein.
Note: Paragraph 1-5.2 of UFC 1-200-01, DoD Building Code states the Building Official/Authority Having Jurisdiction represents the DoD design and construction agent responsible for accomplishing the project. The Design Working Group should incorporate other agencies (e.g., Airport authority, active-duty host, etc.), as applicable to the project.
1-4 CYBERSECURITY.
Plan, design, acquire, execute and maintain all facility-related control systems (including systems separate from a utility monitoring and control system) in accordance with UFC 4-010-06, Cybersecurity of Facility-Related Control Systems \1\ and Department of the Air Force Guidance Memorandum (DAFGM) 2024-32-01 Civil Engineer Control Systems Cybersecurity. /1/
\1\ Control system cybersecurity implementation is applicable even in non-secure spaces. /1/
Cybersecurity is implemented to mitigate vulnerabilities to all DoD real property facility-related control systems to a level that is acceptable to the System Owner and Authorizing Official.

CHAPTER 2 POLICY
2-1 CRITERIA.
Design Air National Guard (ANG) facilities in accordance with all ANG and Department of Defense (DoD) Criteria. DoD Design Criteria are available from the Whole Building Design Guide web site (https://www.wbdg.org). Design criteria include general criteria, as well as specific criteria on particular elements of the work and facility types. Design requirements are typically in the form of Unified Facilities Criteria (UFC). The contract will reference the specific requirements applicable to a particular project.
2-2 METRIC POLICY.
Comply with MIL-STD-3007 for the use of SI in projects and criteria documents.
2-2.1 SI Definitions.
Hard Metric measurement: The actual size, capacity, or other measurement characteristic of a product is changed to a rational metric value. This measurement is used in the manufacturing process.
Soft Metric measurement: A simple arithmetical change from inch/pound to SI units, using a conversion factor, so that actual measurable characteristics remain virtually unchanged, or at least within the former tolerance limits.
2-2.2 General Policy.
In accordance with Public Law 94-168, design and construction of new or renovated facilities must use the metric system of measurement, unless its use is impractical or is likely to cause significant inefficiencies or loss of markets to United States firms. Specify hard metric products unless such products are unavailable or uneconomical. Do not use dual units on drawings on any type of project. The design agent project manager is responsible for making the determination on whether or not to use the metric system of measurement on a project-by-project basis. Decisions to not use the metric system must be justifiable and documented in permanent project files.
2-3 OWNERSHIP OF PROJECT DOCUMENTS AND DATA.
The clauses set forth in DFAR 252.227-7023, Drawings and Other Data to Become Property of Government, DFAR 227.71, Rights in Technical Data, and DFAR 227.72 Rights in Computer Software and Computer Software Documentation, apply to all project documents and data.
2-4 OPERATION SECURITY (OPSEC).
The OPSEC process provides a means of screening information prior to public release in order to prevent aggregation with other information, ultimately revealing DoD intentions or capabilities. Publicly released documents such as field investigations, reports, studies, Basis of Design, calculations, drawings, specifications, or Design-Build https://www.wbdg.org/
Request for Proposals (RFP) must not reveal sensitive or critical information.
2-4.1 OPSEC Review.
Include an OPSEC review by the Base’s OPSEC Manager as part of the normal review process; prior to public release to identify any information that may require protection.
Where applicable, modify details and identifying information in order to eliminate information the Base OPSEC Manager has identified as sensitive or critical.
2-4.2 Mission Information.
DoD installations support units and missions that may be considered sensitive, critical or even classified. In addition, every DoD command performs a core, unclassified mission.
Although unclassified, individual tasks required for a command to accomplish its mission may contain information that when pieced together with other information, reveal sensitive, critical, or even classified information.
2-4.3 Information Compilation.
The compilation of information that is individually unclassified may be classified as a result of the compilation. Classification requires a classification decision by an Original Classification Authority (OCA).
2-4.4 Sensitive or Critical Information.
Sensitive or critical information is unclassified or controlled unclassified information (CUI) concerning the DoD activities, intentions, capabilities, limitations, or vulnerabilities. The following is provided to help avoid the disclosure of sensitive or critical information that must not be included in any publicly releasable material (e.g., BOD, drawings, specifications, etc.).
• Do not identify a command if their mission or portion of their mission is considered critical or classified
• Do not identify a command’s mission or the mission supported by a facility if the mission is considered critical or classified
• Do not identify the capabilities or vulnerabilities of physical security or antiterrorism protective measures.
• Do not identify the location of a Sensitive Compartmented Information
Facility (SCIF)
• Do not identify location of a Special Access Program Facility (SAPF)
• Do not identify Defense Critical Infrastructure
• Do not identify the location of Communications Security (COMSEC)
Equipment.
• Do not identify Take Charge and Move Out (TACAMO) systems or mission.
• Do not identify Nuclear Command, Control and Communications (NC3) systems or mission
• Do not identify Military Strategic and Tactical Relay (MILSTAR) systems or mission
• Do not identify Advanced Extremely High Frequency (AEHF) systems or mission
• Do not identify purpose or frequency range of antennas or communication systems
• Do not identify Low Frequency (LF) or Very Low Frequency (VLF) transmission systems, missions, or specific location or site of the LF or VLF system.
Sensitive area locations such as SCIF and SAPF, may be labeled as "Controlled Area," “Secure Area,” or "Restricted Area” and may be shown on public releasable documents with the approval from the Base’s Site Security Manager or Officer.
2-5 REGISTRATION
Develop project documents under the direction of a Registered Architect or a Professional Engineer currently licensed in accordance with FAR 52.236-25 Requirements for Registration of Designers.
Each drawing must only be signed, sealed, and dated by the Registered Architect or the Professional Engineer who is registered to practice in the particular field involved for work depicted on that drawing, serves as the Designer of Record (DOR) for that work, and complies with requirements of FAR 52.236-25. Sign Record Documents in accordance with Chapter 12, Electronic Design Deliverables (EDD) Format.
2-5.1 Certification.
Where special certifications are required for the design, certify in accordance with the contract and local requirements.
2-6 PROHIBITION OF POSTING CUI DESIGN DELIVERABLES ON UNSECURED
SERVERS.
Design deliverables may contain Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) such as For Official Use Only (FOUO) or Department of Defense Unclassified Controlled Nuclear
Information (DoD UCNI). The release of this type of information into the public domain may compromise an installation or facility’s antiterrorism (AT) or physical security protective measures. Examples include the design analysis where the design basis threat (DBT) is an explosive weight and the location of a Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility (SCIF) or Special Access Program Facility (SAPF).

At each submittal, return and address previous review comments. Provide responses to review comments that clearly indicate what action is being taken to resolve the comment. If the comment was incorporated into the design, a response must so indicate; otherwise, provide acceptable technical justification for comments not being incorporated. Prior to the next submittal, contact the Government reviewer to discuss and resolve any comment that will not be incorporated.
The DOR is responsible for using professional judgment and technically evaluating user comments that suggest technical changes to design.
3-4.4 Final Approval.
The DOR reviews and gives final approval for contract project documents prepared under their direction. The DOR must be registered in the discipline for the documents they approve as described in Chapter 2 in paragraph “Registration”.
CHAPTER 4 OVERVIEW OF THE DESIGN PROCESS
\1\ The design process is initiated when the NGB/A4I Project Manager (PM) issues the Base Civil Engineer (BCE) a Design Instruction (DI). The DI establishes the cost and scope and outlines the architecture and engineering (A-E) services required for the project. Once a Designer (i.e. A-E firm) has been selected, the Project Manager, Contracting Officer Representative (COR), BCE, and Contracting Officer conduct the Criteria Review Conference (CRC) with the A-E. During the CRC, the Government reviews this Technical Letter, along with the DI and Project Requirements Document (PRD), and defines the scope of architect and engineering services required for the project. The Project Manager approves and documents any changes to this Technical Letter, DI, and/or PRD on the CRC Addendum, Attachment 3. At the conclusion of the CRC, the Project Manager, COR, BCE, Contracting Officer, and A-E discuss a tentative design schedule. The Contracting Officer issues the A-E a Request for Price Proposal (RFPP). Upon contract award, the typical design process is as follows. /1/
\1\ Note: The Project Manager’s primary line of communication is with the BCE. The A-E’s primary line of communication is with the designated COR and Contracting Officer.
/1/ \1\ Note: The PRD must clearly state when work can proceed to the next design phase.
