Install Duplicate Electrical Feed

***NOTICE*** Project, 060027 that was originally posted as FA8601-09-B-0013 as an Invitation For Bid (IFB) is now being posted as a Request For Proposal (RFP) under FA8601-09-R-0049. ***End Notice*** SYNOPSIS: Project ZHTV060027. This RESTRICTED ACQUISITION is set aside for HUBzone concerns. The Period of Performance is 270 days. NAICS CODE: 238210. Size Standard $14M. Install Duplicate Electrical feed to Museum of the Air Force, Area B. Install cable, duct, and padmount switches to create new feed to existing loop circuits serving Museum of the Air Force and The Prairies. Load growth at these sites will cause the existing 250 kcmil cable to be insufficient to serve both loads if one side of the loop fails. Due to the long length of cable feeding these sites, repairs could take 1-3 days, and there is too much load to be restored by portable generator. The site of the work is Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio. Special Requirement/Considerations: Work will need to be coordinated with the Exterior Electric Shop to allow them to switch electrical loads to accommodate the work with minimal customer electrical outages. Work on switches where power outages are required will need to be scheduled to minimize disruption. Work will require electrical contractor experienced with work on 12kV underground systems. Estimated Cost of proposed Acquisition is between $250,000 and $500,000.
