Description
The Navy’s Naval Research Laboratory is seeking a firm to relocate two existing air compressors from the interior of Building 65 to a new exterior metal shed, install associated utility connections, and perform related construction work. The effort includes demolition, concrete work, electrical and control system extensions, installation of a new 208 V/120 V panel board, fire‑alarm integration, and provision of a space‑heated, fire‑rated shed. A mandatory site visit is required before bid preparation, and the competition was recently opened to all firms (small‑business set‑aside removed).
• Relocate two 3709B AC air compressors and ensure one remains operational during the move.
• Construct a new pre‑engineered metal building (≈10 × 21 ft) with concrete slab, fire‑rated doors, exhaust fan, unit heaters, lighting, and fire‑alarm tie‑in.
• Extend 3‑inch copper air piping, 480 V power, and BAS wiring to the new shed; install a new 208 V/120 V panel board.
• Provide all required engineering submittals, safety plans, and waste‑management documentation; comply with UFC, NFPA, OSHA, and EM‑385 standards.
