The U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) Public Buildings Service is soliciting proposals for the construction of a Specialized Mission Training Facility (SMTF) at the James J. Rowley Training Center (JJRTC) in Laurel, Maryland, on behalf of the U.S. Secret Service (USSS). The project involves building a full-scale replica of the White House, its perimeter buildings, and grounds to support active scenario-based training for USSS personnel, as well as classroom and conference space. The estimated construction cost range is between $260 million and $290 million, with a single firm-fixed-price contract to be awarded at the conclusion of a two-phase procurement (Phase 1 technical qualifications due August 12, 2026).
