Architect And Engineering- Construction: Fuel Storage Buildings

The Product and Service Code (PSC) C1GC encompasses Architect and Engineering services specifically focused on the design and construction of fuel storage buildings and related infrastructure. This category covers a wide range of projects involving the planning, design, and implementation of fuel storage systems, including underground and aboveground storage tanks, fuel lines, and associated facilities. The work typically involves comprehensive engineering assessments, detailed design specifications, construction management, and specialized services such as geotechnical investigations, corrosion control, and environmental considerations.

The federal contract awards under this PSC category demonstrate a diverse range of fuel storage projects across multiple military and government agencies. The awards, ranging from approximately $16,000 to $5.5 million, are primarily issued by entities like the Naval Facilities Engineering Command (NAVFAC), Department of the Air Force, and Department of Veterans Affairs. Burns & McDonnell Engineering Company, Inc. appears to be a frequent contractor, with projects including underground storage tank replacements, bulk fuel storage tank design, and fuel infrastructure improvements. The contracts are predominantly firm-fixed-price delivery orders or purchase orders, with performance periods typically spanning several months to several years. None of the awards utilized small business set-asides, indicating open competition.

The federal contract opportunities in this PSC category reflect specialized fuel storage and infrastructure projects. The current opportunity from the Department of Energy involves the installation of a 5,000-gallon, double-walled biodiesel fuel tank system in Oak Ridge, Tennessee. The project requires sophisticated engineering considerations, including maintaining fuel temperature, ensuring compatibility with 100% biodiesel, and integrating with existing generator systems. The opportunity emphasizes technical specifications, design review processes, and alignment with specific research and vehicle technology objectives. The solicitation is not set-aside and seeks comprehensive design and installation services for an advanced fuel storage and management system.
