How to bid on Cyber Maintenance Hangar Modernization for the DEPT of the Army

DEPT of the Army Mansfield, OHCloses August 10, 2026

What the Army Corps of Engineers is buying

The Department of the Army, through the Army Corps of Engineers, is seeking construction services for the modernization of a cyber maintenance hangar in Mansfield, Ohio. This is a construction opportunity for firms capable of handling projects involving sensitive information.

The solicitation documents contain Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) and Federal Contract Information (FCI), indicating the need for secure handling of project details.

Key dates and what happens at the deadline

This Request for Proposal (RFP) was published on July 15, 2026. The deadline for responses is August 10, 2026, at 11:00 AM ET. All proposals must be submitted by this time.

It is crucial to meet this deadline, as late submissions are generally not considered. Ensure all required documentation and certifications are in order well in advance.

Who this opportunity suits

This opportunity is suitable for construction firms with experience in modernizing facilities, especially those that can handle projects requiring strict information security. Vendors must have an active System for Award Management (SAM) registration.

A key requirement is a current BASIC confidence level in the Supplier Performance Risk System (SPRS). Additionally, CMMC Level 1 certification is mandatory prior to award for any contractor information system that will process, store, or transmit FCI or CUI during contract performance.

How to respond

To access the restricted solicitation documents, your firm must first have an active SAM registration and a current BASIC confidence level in SPRS. You will need to email Megan Murphy and Patrick Duggins with your company's CAGE Code and Unique Entity Identifier (UEI), confirming your SPRS BASIC confidence level.

Once the government confirms your SAM registration and SPRS status, access to the documents will be granted within PIEE. Remember that CMMC Level 1 certification is required before an award can be made, and your CMMC UID(s) from SPRS must be submitted.

Tips for preparing a competitive response

Given the CUI/FCI requirements, ensure your cybersecurity posture is robust and documented. Verify your SAM registration is active and your SPRS BASIC confidence level is current and accurately posted. Start the process of requesting access to the solicitation documents early, as it involves verification steps.

Carefully review all solicitation documents once you gain access, paying close attention to the scope of work, technical specifications, and any specific instructions for proposal submission. Highlight your firm's relevant experience in similar construction projects, especially those with security considerations. Clearly demonstrate how your firm meets or exceeds the CMMC Level 1 requirement.
