Early Bag Storage Design

The City of Charlotte is seeking qualified architectural firms to design an Early Baggage Storage (EBS) facility at Charlotte Douglas International Airport. The design will integrate an Individual Carrier System tote‑based storage solution into the existing baggage handling system, providing roughly 1,830 storage positions and supporting at least two ramp‑level baggage make‑up carousels with accompanying circulation roads. The facility is envisioned as a multi‑level structure 90‑100 feet tall, built above the current loading dock, and will require coordination of building systems, code compliance, and possible utility relocations. • Scope includes full architectural and engineering design of a multi‑level storage structure (≈90‑100 ft tall). • Must accommodate 1,830 storage positions, two baggage make‑up carousels, and service road access. • Requires integration with existing BHS, adherence to airport and building codes, and coordination of utility relocations.
