About this file
This is an Amendment 1 to an Invitation to Bid (ITB) issued by the Alaska Aerospace Corporation (AAC) for the design, development, transportation, and installation of two pre-engineered metal Vehicle Integration Buildings (VIBs) at the Pacific Spaceport Complex - Alaska (PSCA) on Kodiak Island. The amendment extends the questions deadline to June 17, 2026, at 5:00 pm Alaska Time and extends the bid deadline to June 24, 2026, at 5:00 pm Alaska Time. The contractor must provide complete design, fabrication, transportation, and installation services as a single entity with all costs submitted as a lump-sum, FOB destination price in U.S. dollars. The buildings must be engineered to withstand extreme environmental conditions including 160 mph wind loads, 40 PSF snow loads, Seismic Design Category E requirements, and severe marine corrosion while complying with the 2021 International Building Code, ASCE 7, AISC specifications, and MBMA guidelines. All structural designs must be reviewed, signed, and stamped by a Professional Structural Engineer licensed in Alaska. Installation must be completed prior to Winter 2026, with work commencing upon completion of required civil work anticipated for late Spring 2026. The contractor must designate a single point of contact, submit weekly status reports, manage all construction waste removal, and coordinate with on-site PSCA personnel.
The contract is funded in whole or in part by a U.S. Department of Defense prime contract and is subject to Davis-Bacon Act wage determination requirements, Buy American provisions, specialty metals compliance, and NIST SP 800-171 cybersecurity requirements. Quotations must remain firm for 90 days from the quote opening date. Evaluation criteria include responsiveness to specifications, compliance with federal requirements, and overall project cost. AAC reserves the right to reject any or all quotes and may apply a five percent Alaska bidder preference upon award to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. No incumbent vendors or current contractors are identified in the solicitation materials. While a specific budget or award value is not disclosed, the scope of work involving design, fabrication, transportation, and installation of two large pre-engineered metal buildings engineered for extreme environmental conditions suggests a substantial contract value likely in the six-figure range or higher.

June 10, 2026 Amendment #1: Pre-Engineered Metal Building ITB
SUBJECT: Update to Requirements for the ITB
On behalf of the Alaska Aerospace Corporation, I am issuing this Amendment to the Pre- Engineered Metal Building ITB, originally posted on May 15th, 2026. The update is to Drawings A301 and S007, as well as answering several questions we received prior to the deadline for the question period. Updated drawings are attached but the overview is:
• Drawing A301: The roof liner is being removed from the requirement and roof panel increased by 1” in thickness.
• Drawing S007: Note 1 doesn’t apply and is being removed.
In addition, there were a few additional questions with answers (in red) identified below:
1. Are the supply and installation of overhead doors intended to be included in this PEMB package, or will it be furnished and installed under a separate contract? The supply and installation of the overhead doors shall be included in the PEMB package.
2. Section A.1 states: “For a quote to be considered under this ITB, it must include the full and complete cost for the design, development, transportation, and installation of two pre-engineered metal buildings…”
Section A.6 states: “Building installation must proceed only upon the completion of all required civil work. This is currently anticipated to happen in late Spring 2026, but may change… Preference is for installation to be completed prior to Winter 2026, based on the anticipated completion of the required civil work.”
a. What is the desired delivery date to PSCA for each of the two building material packages? What is the desired installation (erection) date for each of the two buildings? We don’t currently have desired delivery dates because the first building is contingent upon the completion of the civil work and the second is based on the timeline for a second pad that hasn’t started construction yet.
Having offerors include the notional schedule will help us determine how to appropriately fit it into the schedule as well. We don’t anticipate waiting a full 90 days from the quote opening to proceed with the first building unless there are substantial, unforeseen delays to pad construction.
b. If one of the two buildings is not scheduled for installation until 2027 or later, should our quote include weather protection and storage provisions for the deferred material package? The request is for two buildings to be quoted, but the second one may not be required at the same time as the first. We will discuss with the potential awardee how best to approach the second building before finalizing the agreement as we recognize pricing could change if there is a long lead before we need it.
Weather protection and storage provisions for the building depends on cost. If it is easier and cheaper to procure both buildings at the same time and store one, we may choose to pursue that as an option if it’s a possibility for the site while

3. What is the weight of the wall mounted Mechanical units? If referring to Unit Heaters
(UH-1 – UH-10), weight = 92 lbs.
4. What is the weight of the big fan going between frame lines 3 and 4? Fan is a BAS 14’
Powerfoil, weight = 275 lbs.
5. Roof cladding system indicators a R-30 IMP assembly with an R-11 infill liner system.
Please reference a basis of design. Details D1 and D2 are not typical PEMB and IMP conditions. Suggest a 5'' IMP with an R-value of 43.7 In a 42'' wide panel. The 42'' wide panel will cut out some freight cost over the 36'' wide panel that is referenced. Infill liner system will be removed from design requirements… pending amendment to be sent. 36” panels to remain.
6. Is the base flashing supposed to cover the rigid insulation on the stem wall? Yes
As this amendment is going out after the bid deadline, the deadline for bids and questions is being extended. The new deadline for questions is June 17th, 2026, and the deadline for bids is June 24th, 2026.
