About this opportunity
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Alaska District, issued a Request for Information on October 2, 2026, seeking market intelligence on design and construction delivery methods for a 45MWth/5 MWe nuclear microreactor synchronization project at Eielson Air Force Base, Alaska, with responses due by October 16, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. Alaska Time.
The project involves installation of a nuclear microreactor and extension of heating, power, communications, and water systems across the installation, including a 4,400-linear-foot utilidor, 3,500 linear feet of underground primary distribution lines, 6,200 linear feet of overhead primary distribution lines, a utility building, and a microgrid control system. MILCON-funded with a target budget of $135 million and a schedule spanning FY27 through FY31, the project targets construction award in FY28 with substantial completion no later than October 2030.
The government is evaluating three delivery approaches: Accelerated Design-Build to Budget under FAR, Construction Manager at Risk under Other Transaction Authority, and Progressive Design-Build under Other Transaction Authority. The RFI requests industry input on site constraints including high groundwater tables and PFAS contamination, coordination with a separate reactor contractor, risks associated with late CM At Risk integration, collaborative mechanisms, temporary facility requirements, construction timelines and mobilization strategies, budget realism, cost drivers, and supply chain risks. Respondents should provide bonding capacity, indicate intent to serve as prime or subcontractor, rank collaboration priorities, and recommend the optimal delivery method with supporting analysis. This RFI is for information only; submission does not obligate the government to award a contract or reimburse costs.
