Quick Summary

The Department of the Navy, NAVFACSYSCOM MID-ATLANTIC, is soliciting proposals for the Design-Bid-Build construction of the P993/995 F-35 Aircraft Sustainment Center and Composite Repair Facility at Marine Corps Air Station (MCAS) Cherry Point, NC. This is a Firm Fixed-Price (FFP) contract with an estimated value exceeding $500,000,000. Proposals are due by May 20, 2026, at 2:00 PM EDT. Two offerors, ECC Atlantic Construction and Walsh Federal, have been pre-qualified for this Segment II acquisition.

Scope of Work

The project involves two major facilities:

  • P993 F-35 Sustainment Center: A 255,461 SF depot-level hangar supporting 20 F-35 aircraft. This includes maintenance bays, four paint booths, administrative space, aircraft part modification and tool shops, and a secure area built to ICD705 standards. The main facility features precast structural concrete, pile-supported foundation, slab on grade, and a cross-laminated timber roof deck.
  • P995 Composite Repair Facility: A 105,755 SF consolidated depot-level facility for advanced composites and rotor blade repair. It comprises a composite repair and manufacturing shop (disassembly, parts kitting, production control, clean/dirty rooms, bonding, clean rooms, classrooms, engineering/laboratory space) and an aircraft rotor blade repair shop (disassembly, staging, dirty room, sanding pit, bonding room). Site development includes utility improvements for Hancock Village, a taxiway with a bridge, and an aircraft parking apron.

Contract Details

  • Contract Type: Firm Fixed-Price (FFP)
  • Magnitude: Over $500,000,000
  • Period of Performance: 1,461 calendar days for completion.
  • Set-Aside: No specific set-aside for the prime contract. However, small business subcontracting targets are 40% for Small Business (SB), 5% for Small Disadvantaged Business (SDB), 3% for HUBZone SB, 9% for Woman-Owned Small Business (WOSB), and 5% for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB).
  • Liquidated Damages: $35,391.79 per calendar day of delay.

Key Requirements & Amendments

Multiple amendments have refined the solicitation. Amendment 0004 extended the proposal due date to May 20, 2026. Amendment 0006 reissued P993 drawings and specifications with CUI removed, and Division 1 specifications for both P993 and P995 without CUI designation. However, CMMC Level 2 is still stated to apply to P993, and CMMC Level 1 to P995. The project requires Johnson Controls Metasys product line for Facilities Related Control Systems (FRCS) to ensure standardization and cybersecurity. Detailed interior finishes, electrical systems, under-running bridge cranes, and aerospace X-ray testing equipment specifications have been revised and clarified through various amendments and Pre-Proposal Inquiry (PPI) responses.

Submission & Evaluation

Proposals must be submitted electronically via PIEE in PDF format, with price and non-price proposals in separate files. Key submission requirements include an executed SF1442, the revised Price Proposal Form, a Bid Bond (SF-24), SAM registration, FAPIIS information, and VETS-4212 registration. Evaluation will be based on a tradeoff process, where technical factors (Management Approach & Schedule, and Small Business Utilization) are of equal importance to each other and approximately equal to price.

Important Notes

Drawings and specifications containing Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) were initially to be provided separately upon completion of a DOD-CUI Non-Disclosure Agreement, but Amendment 0006 has since removed CUI designation from many P993 drawings and specifications.
