2027 magna strategic system program complex

The Department of the Navy Strategic Systems Programs is seeking qualified contractors to design, build, and commission a specialized production facility for the Magna Strategic System Program at the Naval Industrial Reserve Ordnance Plant in Magna, Utah. The project involves creating a complete process-driven complex dedicated to manufacturing high-purity energetic materials while safely integrating hazardous and explosive chemical processes in support of the TRIDENT II (D5) Fleet Ballistic Missile Program. Contractors must demonstrate substantial experience in designing and constructing high-explosive facilities for Class 1.1 explosives, expertise with Department of Defense explosive safety regulations and unified facilities criteria standards, and the ability to maintain security clearances for work within government weapons installations. Core qualifications include capital improvement experience with TRIDENT II programs, design-build expertise for specialized production facilities handling sensitive materials, project management capability for complex installations, and technical proficiency in blast-resistant structures and explosives safety quantity distance calculations. White Paper Capability Statements are due February 10, 2026, at 12:00 AM EST to sophia.giaquinto@ssp.navy.mil, with the contracting office located at 1250 10th Street, Suite 4600, Washington DC 20374, and an estimated contract award date of December 1, 2026.

This is a pre-solicitation notice for market research purposes, and no proposals are being requested or accepted at this stage; accordingly, no set-asides are designated and no contract will be awarded from this synopsis. Respondents must submit White Paper Capability Statements not exceeding 5 pages (12-point Times New Roman, 1-inch margins) that include a maximum of three relevant contract references with a combined value of at least $75 million completed within the last seven years. While no specific award value is disclosed in this pre-solicitation notice, the magnitude and complexity of designing and constructing a complete production facility with specialized equipment, hazardous material controls, remote monitoring systems, and comprehensive commissioning suggests a substantial contract value. Interested firms must possess or demonstrate the ability to obtain a SECRET facility clearance and computing capability to process SECRET data by the estimated award date of December 1, 2026. Although no set-asides are designated for this opportunity, the government reserves the right to consider set-asides for small businesses and small business preference groups, and small business concerns are encouraged to respond provided they comply with relevant subcontracting limitations.
