About this file

This Statement of Work (SOW) details environmental resilience range repair project for Fort Hood, Texas, focused on the Sugarloaf Multi-Use (SLMU) Range. The base bid includes repairing three Moving Armor Target (MAT) emplacements, with eight optional tasks ranging from installing Stationary Armor Target concrete slabs to replacing Range Limit Markers, relocating power stations, and constructing water points. The project requires a contractor experienced in live fire range design with a military Master Gunner on staff, and has a strict timeline from contract award in September 2025 to physical construction completion by April 2026.

Key technical requirements include replacing timber walls with concrete bin blocks, increasing MAT wall heights, ensuring proper grading, and implementing advanced target systems compatible with Future Army System of Integrated Targets (FASIT). The Moving Armor Target systems must feature sophisticated capabilities like wireless data controls, lithium-ion batteries, hit-counting sensors, and compatibility with range control networks. The project emphasizes minimal training disruption, requires comprehensive design and construction plans, and involves working within an active military training environment with specific safety and access protocols.
