Campus-Wide Fire Suppression Assessment

The contractor is tasked with conducting a thorough assessment of all fire suppression systems across the NETC campus in Emmitsburg, Maryland, evaluating their current operational condition, compliance with NFPA standards, and overall integrity. This includes inspecting and testing every component of existing systems to identify deficiencies, immediate life-safety risks, and remaining service life, while also providing clear recommendations on whether repair or replacement is the optimal course of action. A prioritized list of corrective actions and detailed cost estimates for each identified issue must be delivered, alongside a strategic long-term modernization plan to guide future investments and ensure sustained safety and regulatory alignment. The contractor must deliver a complete compliance and deficiency matrix for every building on campus, ensuring granular visibility into system health and regulatory standing. All findings will be used by the Federal Emergency Management Agency under the Department of Homeland Security to make informed decisions about infrastructure upgrades and resource allocation. This effort is designated as an 8(a) set-aside, with the NAICS code 541350 indicating engineering services, and point of contact information is provided for inquiries regarding the solicitation, including Mark Mellot for technical coordination and Amy Connolly as the Small Business Specialist.
