Contract Description:

This contract will be awarded as Firm-Fixed-Priced (FFP) construction contract to Replace Stage Lighting Components at Wolf Trap National Park for the Performing Arts. The Filene Center is a large-scale multi-purpose amphitheater where as many as 90 performances per year occur throughout the spring and summer. The stage lighting system is essential to performances at the theater. The current system was installed in the early 1980’s. The system includes both infrastructure and loose equipment. Infrastructure is for the existing dimmer racks, all line- voltage branch wiring, receptacle panes and raceways that are connected to the lighting system. The loose equipment includes control consoles, portable theatrical lighting instruments fixtures and some data processing devices. Currently the system is experiencing problems with wiring and dimmer components that are no longer commercially available and difficult to source. Services will include procurement of specified theatrical stage lighting components that can operate together to provide lighting for the stage as well as installation and testing in accordance with approved construction documents. The work is expected to be completed in about 6 months from the contract award date.
