BUILDING AUTOMATION SYSTEM

STATEMENT OF WORK

Objective

This contract provides industry certified Building Automation System (BAS) virtual and onsite training workshops for Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) personnel.

Background

There are primarily two types of building automation systems installed in the NAS, Honeywell’s INet, and Schneider Corporation’s SmartStruxure. These systems monitor all power systems and environmental controls for the facilities that they are installed in. The power systems include commercial, back-up, and emergency systems. The environmental controls include boilers, chillers, HVAC systems, air handlers and cooling towers, and other closely related systems. Building Automation Systems allow a facility’s power system watch-stander to monitor all systems from a single location.

The FAA estimates a minimum of 312 and a maximum of 648 employees will require industry certified INeT Building Automation Systems (BAS) training for FAA site technicians, Technical Services Operations Group (TSOG), Operations Engineering Support Group (OESG), and Second Level Engineering employees that operate, maintain, and support NAS facilities.

The FAA estimates a minimum of 312 and a maximum of 864 employees will require industry certified SmartStruxure Building Automation Systems (BAS) training for FAA site technicians, Technical Services Operations Group (TSOG), Operations Engineering Support Group (OESG), and Second Level Engineering employees that operate, maintain, and support NAS facilities.

This training will need to be completed by the completion of this contract. Virtual training should include basic knowledge, including configuration, connectivity, operation, maintenance, and troubleshooting. Training at an FAA facility should include all of the Virtual training’s subjects as well as site-specific configuration training.
