About this file

This is a Design-Build Statement of Work (SOW) for constructing a new Airport Traffic Control Tower (ATCT) at Key West International Airport for the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). The project is funded under the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, with a target budget of $45 million for a firm-fixed-price design-build contract. The new ATCT will replace an existing facility and is mission-critical to ensuring safe and continuous air traffic management.

The SOW provides comprehensive requirements across multiple technical domains including site preparation, structural design, architectural specifications, electrical and mechanical systems, security infrastructure, and operational readiness. Key project goals include creating a resilient, modern facility that meets hurricane wind load and floodplain protection standards, complies with FAA and building codes, and incorporates energy-efficient design. The project requires detailed design submittals, adherence to strict technical standards, and coordination with FAA stakeholders throughout the design and construction process, with potential award fee incentives for superior performance in areas like quality, cost control, schedule adherence, innovation, and safety.

1.0 PROJECT DESCRIPTION 1

1.0 PROJECT DESCRIPTION

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) seeks to partner with a Design-Builder(D-B) to design and construct new Airport Traffic Control Towers (ATCTs) as part of Public Law No: 117-58 (11/15/2021) - Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act.

The project involves the design and construction of a new Airport Traffic Control Tower (ATCT) in Key West, Florida. The project is mission-critical to the FAA as it will provide a modern, resilient, and efficient facility to ensure the safe and continuous management of air traffic operations at the Key West International Airport.

The scope includes all services necessary for the planning, design, engineering, permitting, construction, commissioning and turnover of the ATCT and associated site work. The facility must be designed to meet or exceed all applicable federal, state, and local building codes, with specific emphasis on hurricane wind loads, floodplain protection and FAA orders and standards.

1.1 Project Owner:

3.0 SITE ANALYSIS 5

3.0 SITE ANALYSIS

3.1 EXISTING SITE CONDITIONS

The ATCT site is on airport-owned land, leased to the FAA. The previous EYW ATCT was in this same site, but due to structural deterioration, the previous ATCT facility was demolished and the operations moved to a mobile ATCT which is currently located North of Runway 26.

The site is approximately 9,023.65 SF with a geometry as shown in Figure 1. The new ATCT building is to be located in the same lot as the previous ATCT (south of the leased area).

The site currently has existing utilities that will need to be relocated to accommodate a new structure foundation, as well as remnants of the previous structure foundations which will need to be removed.

The site is located at the Key West International Airport, Key West, FL (EYW) and the address is 3479 S Roosevelt Blvd, Key West, FL 33040
