Hoist Systems services and maintenance

Mission Support and Test, LLC is seeking sources capable of providing Hoist evaluation and repair and/or replacement of equipment services for all hoist and hoist systems at the U1a complex at the Nevada National Security Site. The U1a Complex is a Hazard Category 2 complex located in Area 1 of the Nevada National Security Site. The facility is approximately 25 miles north of Mercury, Nevada, and 90 miles northwest of Las Vegas, Nevada. The U1a Complex comprises various surface support facilities, two shafts approximately 1000 feet deep, one ventilation bore hole (U1g), and a system of underground drifts. The two shafts, namely, U1a (secondary) and U1h (primary) are equipped with hoisting capabilities for personnel, equipment, supply materials, and mined material. U1a Hoist system subcontractor was Frontier-Kemper Constructors, Inc., with a control system by Allen Bradley. The hoist was installed and turned over to the Complex in the early 1990’s. This system was purchased used and the exact age of the unit is unknown. U1h Hoist system subcontractor was SIEMAG with a control system by ABB. The hoist was installed in 2005. The portable Hoist system involves a basket attached to a hoisting assembly, which is truck mounted. This system may be used as an emergency hoist control system at the two shafts or the ventilation bore hole.
