Switchgear Replacement, Federal Building and U.S. Courthouse, Ann Arbor, MI

This contract, managed by the General Services Administration, involves the replacement of the substation serving the Federal Building and U.S. Courthouse in Ann Arbor, Michigan. The scope of work includes the installation of a new substation featuring two primary switches, a single transformer, and distribution systems. To ensure continuous power, the contractor must extend the existing primary preferred and primary standby DTE feeders to the new equipment, maintaining both the old and new substations until the new system is fully verified before demolishing the original structure. The new substation must integrate with the existing generator to enable automatic power transfer across the entire distribution system. The final location of the equipment is to be determined in coordination with GSA Property Management. Additionally, the project requires coordination with a concurrent ARRA project under development. This award falls under NAICS code 238210 and was administered by the PBS R5 Acquisition Management Division.
