F35 Renovate Fuel Cell (Bldg1344)

Solicitation F500418BA005 is a total small business set-aside for the renovation of the F-35 Fuel Cell Maintenance Facility, Building 1344, located at Eielson Air Force Base in Alaska. Project No. FTQW 18-0205 involves a comprehensive scope of work including the reconfiguration of administrative spaces, the construction of new locker rooms, restrooms, and a break room, and the conversion of existing restrooms into a new fire pump room. The project also requires the renovation of the existing hangar door and extensive upgrades to mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and HVAC systems to ensure compliance with governing codes such as UFC, IBC, and NFPA. A critical component of the renovation is the replacement of the fire alarm and aqueous film-forming foam (AFFF) suppression systems with high expansion foam (HEF). This includes the brand-name acquisition of Det-Tronics X3301 Multispectrum IR Flame Detectors and an Eagle Quantum Premier control unit to meet UFC 4-211-01 standards for aircraft maintenance hangars. The estimated magnitude of the contract is between 1 million and 5 million dollars, with a performance period of 120 calendar days. All work must adhere to the Alaska Wage Determination AK180001 for building and heavy construction.
