The 354th Contracting Squadron is seeking qualification packages and past performance information from vendors interested in providing professional architect and engineering services at Eielson AFB, AK to install Nose Dock 7 fire suppression system. BACKGROUND: Nose dock 7 (bldg. 1232) houses maintenance functions for F-16 aircraft at Eielson AFB, Alaska. It was constructed in 1965. There have been several renovations and remodel projects since the original construction. After installation of insulated roof panels roof deflection due to snow loads has been an issue with this building. Asbestos has been abated with previous projects, but some is still present throughout the building. Presence of lead based paint should be expected. There is currently no fire suppression in the building.
