SUMMARY:Reverse Industry Day – Emerging Acquisition Strategies for Military Construction and Civil Works Projects
DESCRIPTION:U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE)\, Sacramento District (SPK) \nSubject: Reverse Industry Day – Emerging Acquisition Strategies for Military Construction and Civil Works Projects \nThe U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE)\, Sacramento District (SPK)\, invites industry partners to participate in a Reverse Industry Day focused on emerging acquisition strategies and project delivery methods. This event is intended to foster open dialogue between industry and USACE regarding innovative approaches to design and construction procurement. \nBACKGROUND \nIndustry partners have gained significant experience implementing progressive and collaborative delivery methods\, including Progressive Design-Build (PDB)\, Design-Build to Budget (DB2B)\, Integrated Design and Construction (IDAC)\, and Other Transaction Authorities (OTA). USACE is exploring opportunities to expand the use of these tools where appropriate and seeks direct feedback from industry to help shape future acquisition strategies and solicitation approaches. \nRather than conducting individual capability briefings\, USACE will convene industry representatives in a roundtable forum to share lessons learned\, discuss best practices\, and identify opportunities to improve project delivery outcomes. \nTo learn more\, click here.
