About this file

This Performance Work Statement (PWS) details a project to repair the lightning protection system for Building 1040 at Peterson Space Force Base in Colorado. The project involves redesigning the existing lightning protection system, which currently has sixteen air terminals that are either missing or damaged. The contractor must replace air terminals with new ones of the same size and material, ensure compliance with multiple standards including NFPA 780, UFC 3-575-01, and DAFMAN 32-1065, and provide a third-party inspection certification.

Key requirements include a 120-calendar day performance period, contractor qualifications of minimum 5 years experience in lightning protection systems and a valid Lightning Protection Institute (LPI) certification, and multiple deliverables such as equipment specifications, as-built drawings, continuity and ground resistance readings, and a 12-month warranty. The contractor must work during 0800-1600 hours Monday through Friday, coordinate building access with facility managers, maintain a clean worksite, and follow environmental and hazardous material handling protocols. The project is estimated to be solicited in 2025, with work to be performed at Peterson Space Force Base in Colorado.
