About this file

This file is a Questions and Answers document for the Electrical Outlet Installation solicitation (15F06726Q0000122) issued by the FBI. The Q&A provides clarification on technical, logistical, and regulatory requirements for installing two (2) new 20-amp quad electrical receptacles in the CRC Document Laboratory at the FBI Records Center in Winchester, Virginia.

Key project specifications include: approximately 110 feet of distance from the existing electrical panel to the new outlet location; drop ceilings for raceway routing; an EATON brand electrical panel with available space for new breakers; flush-mounted outlets; 12-foot ceiling height with lifts available; EMT raceway type for approximately 20 feet with existing EMT comprising the remaining 90 feet; and no requirement for dielectric brakes or security clearances. The contractor must employ a properly licensed electrician (not state-specific to Virginia), with no permits required for the work. Additional clarifications confirm that no bid bonds, payment bonds, or performance bonds are required; site visits for subcontractors are permitted; the facility is not a SCIF; no formal training or waiting periods are necessary before work commences; and a criminal background check is required only for visitor access to the facility.
