RFLP Artificial Intelligence (AI) Data Center Development at Joint Base Elmendorf Richardson, Eielson Air Force Base, and Clear Space Force Station AFCEC-26-R-0006
Summary
AI-generated · Apr 11, 2026Proposals are invited from qualified entities to lease one or more underutilized land parcels at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, Eielson Air Force Base, and Clear Space Force Station for private commercial AI data center development. Offerors may target one or more Installations, selecting parcels they deem commercially viable; the government will evaluate proposals to select potential lessees for long-term ground leases, with monetary consideration at or above the fair market value for the leasehold. The government may, but is not obligated to, purchase AI data center services or power from the projects, and any such purchases would be governed by separate contracts.
The parcels to be leased are depicted in Appendix A-1 through A-3, and Offerors are not required to submit proposals for all Installations—only those where a project is commercially viable. A legally binding lease would be negotiated with one or more successful lessees; a Lessee is the Offeror with whom a long-term lease is executed, though a Lessee may not result if lease negotiations are unsuccessful.
The Department of the Air Force ( DAF ) is accepting proposals for the development of commercial Artificial Intelligence ( AI ) data centers ( Projects ). As consideration for leasing its parcels to developers selected under this RFLP, DAF is seeking monetary consideration for the AI Data Center. Executive Order 13327, Federal Real Property Asset Management, establishes It is the policy of the United States to promote the efficient and economical use of America s real property assets and to assure management accountability for implementing Federal real property management reforms. Furthermore, policy from the Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Air Force (Installations) directs, The Air Force cannot afford to disregard or discount the value of any asset, and we must optimize the real and potential value of those assets . 10 U.S.C. 2667 (the Enabling Statute ), as amended, allows the Government to lease real property to non-Federal entities in exchange for consideration in an amount that is not less than the fair market value of the leasehold interest.

Each Property and associated acreage is depicted in Appendix A-1 through A-3 of this RFLP ( Depiction of Properties ), along with additional information. Offerors are not required to submit development proposals for all Installations but instead can choose to submit proposals for Installations in which the Offeror feels a Project is commercially viable. Although the Government may purchase AI Data Center services and power from the Project(s), it is under no obligation to do so and Offerors concept shall not include Government purchases of AI Data Center services or power. Should the Government elect to purchase AI Data Center services or power, the Government will negotiate separate contracts for these services. In accordance with and subject to the terms, requirements, and conditions of this RFLP, the Government will evaluate all proposals received to select one or more Offerors as potential lessee(s) with whom to enter into lease negotiations (individually a Potential Lessee and collectively Potential Lessees ). A Potential Lessee(s) with whom the Government executes a legally binding written long-term ground lease agreement ( Lease ) is hereinafter referred to in this RFLP as a Lessee(s). A Potential Lessee(s) may not actually become a Lessee if lease negotiations are not successful.
