OTA

The USACE Los Angeles District will host November industry days in Las Vegas and Long Beach to outline five planned OTA design-and-construction opportunities at Air Force and Space Force installations. Contractors can learn about anticipated two-step qualifications and pitch processes and delivery methods, but formal solicitations will control requirements; some networking and feedback sessions require separate submissions or RSVPs.

Vast Resources has joined the Defense Industrial Base Consortium and the Cornerstone Consortium, enhancing its access to critical mineral supply chains. This collaboration will allow the company to engage with U.S. defense stakeholders and explore procurement opportunities under the Other Transaction Authority framework.
