About this opportunity

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Louisville District, posted a Special Notice on February 26, 2026, announcing a fully virtual Industry Day scheduled for March 12, 2026, at 10:00 AM EST. This Special Notice pertains to a Design-Build federal contract opportunity for the repair of the Area Maintenance Support Activity/Equipment Concentration Site (AMSA/ECS) vehicle maintenance facility located at the Arden Hills Army Reserve Center in Minnesota. The project encompasses the repair and modernization of a 31,658 square-foot facility that serves Army Reserve units. This is not a formal Request for Proposal, Invitation to Bid, or Request for Quotation, but rather an informational forum to brief industry participants on the upcoming contracting opportunity. The government does not obligate itself to enter into a contract through this Industry Day, nor will it reimburse participants for information submissions or attendance costs.

The primary objective of this Special Notice is to inform potential contractors and subcontractors about the scope of work and key project details prior to the formal solicitation. The repair project includes HVAC, electrical distribution, fire alarm and suppression system upgrades, as well as interior and exterior renovations, with the addition of a 10-ton crane requiring roof modifications. The formal Design-Build Request for Proposals carries solicitation number W912QR26RA035, with Phase I submissions due in April 2026 and Phase II submissions due in August 2026, with contract award anticipated in September 2026. While no specific eligibility criteria are restricted in the Special Notice itself, all proposals will be evaluated using a two-phase "Best Value Trade-Off" methodology considering past performance, technical approach, and financial capability. The Industry Day documentation identified 16 participating firms representing prime contractors, subcontractors, and architect/engineer firms interested in pursuing this opportunity, indicating broad industry interest in this approximately 800-day construction project with a Notice to Proceed targeted for October 2025 and completion expected in April 2028.

*PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS INDUSTRY DAY IS FULLY VIRTUAL*

Please join us 12 March 2026 @ 10:00 AM EST for an Industry Day hosted by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Louisville District Office for the design/build construction to Repair Area Maintenance Support Activity (AMSA) / Equipment Concentration Site (ECS) - Arden Hills Army Reserve Center (ARC), MN.

This project is a Design/Build project that will include:

Repairing a failing, 31,658 SF Area Maintenance Support Activity/Equipment Concentration Site (AMSA/ECS) vehicle maintenance facility at the Arden Hills Army Reserve Center (ARC) at Arden Hills, MN. This project will repair failing facility components, extend the economic life of the facility by 25 years and provide a modern maintenance facility that enables readiness for the Army Reserve units stationed there. Other methods of meeting this requirement were analyzed, to include building demolition and new construction, but were deemed non-viable due to the cost of repair vs. the cost of demolition and new construction. Building components and systems to be repaired include the Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC), electrical distribution, fire alarm and suppression systems, ceilings, windows, doors, floor coverings, interior reconfiguration, and interior finishes. Project includes retrofit installation of new 10T crane with 20' hook height and raising overall building roof to accommodate new crane hook height. The project will also repair the exterior facade and finishes. All hazardous materials (HAZMAT) removed as part of the demolition will be disposed of following all state and federal guidelines.

This is not a Request for Proposal, an Invitation to Bid, or a Request for Quotation. Therefore, this event is not to be construed as a commitment by the Government to enter into a contract nor will the Government pay for information provided to the Government in a response nor pay for administrative costs incurred attending the Industry Day event.
