Hawthorne Army Depot Operation, Maintenance, and Modernization Synopsis

The Army Contracting Command-Rock Island (ACC-RI), acting on behalf of the Joint Munitions Command, intends to issue a Request for Proposal for the operation, maintenance, and modernization of the Hawthorne Army Depot in Hawthorne, Nevada.

The operating contractor will also manage base support operations, including environmental services, fire protection, safety, security, and the modernization of equipment and facilities.
