The Department of Defense, through the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, is seeking contractors for the construction of a state-of-the-art laboratory building for the USDA-ARS National Soil Dynamics Research Unit, which will be relocated to the USDA's Research Park in Auburn, Alabama. This project involves not only the main laboratory building but also related utilities, pavements, and optional structures such as a lab annex, greenhouse, and other site features. The construction is critical for advancing agricultural research and enhancing the capabilities of the USDA-ARS in soil dynamics. Interested contractors can reach out to Jillian Saffle at jillian.e.saffle@usace.army.mil or Kenneth Harlan at kenneth.p.harlan@usace.army.mil for further details, as the project falls under NAICS code 236220 and is currently in the presolicitation phase.
