(Updated to revise POCs.) U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Sacramento District (SPK) Subject: Reverse Industry Day – Emerging Acquisition Strategies for Military Construction and Civil Works Projects The 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. BACKGROUND Industry 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. Rather 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. EVENT OBJECTIVE This Reverse Industry Day is designed to provide industry with a platform to: • Share real-world experiences and lessons learned using emerging acquisition methods. • Discuss successful implementation strategies, challenges, and risk mitigation approaches. • Provide recommendations on solicitation structure, evaluation criteria, partnering practices, and contract administration considerations. • Offer feedback that may inform future USACE acquisition planning and solicitation development. TOPICS OF INTEREST Discussion topics may include, but are not limited to: • Other Transaction Authorities (OTA) • Progressive Design-Build (PDB) • Design-Build to Budget (DB2B) • Integrated Design and Construction (IDAC) • Early contractor involvement • Collaborative project development • Cost and schedule certainty • Innovation and risk-sharing approaches • Best practices for owner-contractor collaboration EVENT INFORMATION Date: Wednesday , July 15 , 2026 Time: 1:00 PM – 3:30 PM (Pacific Time) Location: Sacramento District Headquarters 1325 J Street Sacramento, CA 95814 ***Note: Parking is limited around the Sacramento District Headquarters.
