Cornerstone CS-26-1401 Lake City Army Ammunition Plant Security
The Department of Defense, through the U.S. Army Combat Capabilities Development Command – Chemical Biological Center and Army Contracting Command – Rock Island, intends to issue a competitive Cornerstone Initiative Request for a prototype project supporting security requirements at the Lake City Army Ammunition Plant. This effort involves the design, delivery, integration, and sustainment of a layered sensor fusion and perimeter security system to enhance situational awareness and validate effectiveness in a live operational environment in Independence, Missouri. The procurement is classified under NAICS 561621 Security Systems Services (except Locksmiths) and will be conducted as a prototype project via the Cornerstone Other Transaction Agreement.
The government plans to award one Fixed Price Other Transaction Agreement with a 12-month period of performance, though additional tasks and sites may be added to the scope. A successful prototype may lead to a non-competitive follow-on production agreement. The request for whitepaper proposals is scheduled for release on or after June 3, 2026, with an estimated closing date three weeks following issuance. A mandatory site visit is anticipated for the week of June 15, 2026, and interested vendors must register in advance and attend to be eligible for award consideration.
Participation is restricted to members of the Cornerstone consortium or entities that have initiated the membership process. Final award requires a signed Cornerstone Consortium Management Agreement. All resulting agreements will incorporate FAR clause 52.204-25 regarding the prohibition on certain telecommunications and video surveillance services. This special notice, identified by number CS-26-1401, is managed on behalf of the Office of the Secretary of Defense under the Innovation Capability and Modernization Program.
