Alternative Construction Methods
Delivering scalable, rapidly deployable infrastructure solutions that support mission success anywhere in the world.
Construction That Moves at the Speed of the Mission
When timelines are tight and environments are unpredictable, traditional construction isn’t always the answer. That’s where Alternative Construction Methods (ACM) come in.
ADS connects proven construction technologies with real-world operational needs—delivering facilities, protection systems, and infrastructure that can be deployed faster, scaled easier, and built to perform in the environments that matter most.
From modular facilities to aircraft protection systems, we help warfighters and first responders get what they need—when and where they need it.

Proven Where It Matters Most
Hill Air Force Base – Temporary Aircraft Maintenance Structures (TAMS)
CHALLENGE
Air Force OO-ALC requires the purchase and installation of Pre-Engineered Panelized Metal Relocatable Buildings (PPMRB) for aircraft maintenance at Hill Air Force Base, Ogden, Utah. Facility will provide critically needed Maintenance Facilities for F-16 aircraft.
SOLUTION
ADS working with Dogwood Industries and Navigator International delivers 124,320 SF of maintenance space through the delivery of two (2) 130’ x 420’ (54,600 SF) hangar facilities connected by a 36’ x 420’ center connector corridor. Each hangar includes a modular support structure for admin and support. Each TAMS includes 8 maintenance bays with interior fall arrest systems with the ability to accommodate two F-16 aircraft per maintenance bay.
Built on Experience. Delivered with Precision.
ADS has delivered over 450 ACM solutions globally in support of the Department of War in just the past five years.
Each solution is designed, manufactured, and delivered with speed and precision ensuring consistent quality and rapid deployment in the field.

Tension Fabric Structures
Our tension fabric structures deliver rapid, durable solutions designed for speed of deployment and long-term performance. Built to withstand demanding environments, these structures provide large clear-span interiors, adaptable layouts, and cost-effective coverage for mission-critical operations, storage, maintenance, and workspace needs. With flexible sizing and scalable configurations, tension fabric systems offer a high-performance alternative to traditional construction without sacrificing reliability or functionality.
Modular Buildings
Our modular building solutions provide fast, scalable facilities without the long lead times of traditional construction. Designed for flexibility and rapid installation from offices, classrooms, maintenance spaces, and support facilities. With the ability to expand, relocate, or reconfigure over time, modular construction offers an efficient path to delivering proper infrastructure on an accelerated timeline.
SCIFs
We deliver secure, compliant SCIF solutions built to support classified operations and sensitive mission requirements. From design and construction to outfitting and installation, our team provides turnkey SCIF capabilities that meet stringent security standards while maintaining speed and efficiency. Whether integrated into an existing facility or built as a standalone structure, our approach ensures dependable performance, regulatory compliance, and operational readiness from day one.
Pre-Engineered Metal Buildings
Our pre-engineered metal buildings provide a durable, cost-effective construction option for facilities requiring strength, speed, and scalability. Designed for rapid fabrication and installation, these structures are ideal for warehouses, maintenance bays, operational support buildings, and industrial applications. With customizable layouts and long-term structural performance, pre-engineered metal buildings offer a proven solution for projects that demand both efficiency and reliability.
