Description
The United States Air Force is seeking a design/build contractor to repair, upgrade, and modernize Building 562 at RAF Alconbury. The project involves improving the facility's exterior envelope, structural access, and interior lighting/ventilation conditions. The contractor will need to provide innovative, cost-effective, and sustainable solutions to meet the government's requirements.
Some key points to consider include:
• The existing pipework can remain in place if it is cost-prohibitive to demolish, as long as it is left in a state where it is incapable of being re-used and won't cause future problems.
• The contractor will need to ensure that the existing electrical distribution board has sufficient spare capacity to power the new rear access electric roller shutter door.
• The building will remain occupied and operational during the construction works, and the contractor will need to schedule their work around the end user's working hours and access requirements.
• The contractor will be responsible for providing a secure external staging/laydown area for skips, scaffolding, and material storage during the project.
