Addendum No. 6 Summary – MAA-CO-26-001/MAA-MC-26-014
This is Addendum No. 6 to the technical provisions and drawings issued by the Maryland Aviation Administration (MAA) for Contract MAA-CO-26-001/MAA-MC-26-014, covering design, installation, and support of airport data, information display, and management systems at Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport. The addendum, dated January 15, 2026, modifies the original proposal documents and addresses updates to technical specifications, general project requirements, and contract duration. The revised proposal deadline is February 19, 2026, at 1:00 p.m. local time via eMMA (https://emma.maryland.gov). The addendum includes comprehensive revisions to contract duration, special construction requirements, technical evaluation criteria, and electrical specifications. The design phase duration for MAA-CO-26-001 has been extended from 90 to 150 calendar days from Notice to Proceed, with the construction phase maintaining a 365-calendar-day timeline from Construction Notice to Proceed. Bidders must acknowledge receipt of Addendum No. 6 and return the signed acknowledgement form to mqueen6@bwiairport.com immediately.
The addendum removes ESRI Indoor Mapping Wayfinding requirements from multiple specification sections and updates data cabling standards from Category 6A to Category 6, adjusting technical compliance requirements accordingly. Seven new specification sections are incorporated as attachments, including Security Requirements During Construction at BWI (Section 010005X), Asset Management Requirements for Non-BIM Projects (Section 010013X), Construction Debris Management and Disposal (Section 017419X), Operations and Maintenance Data (Section 017823X), and comprehensive Division 26 Electrical Specifications covering low-voltage power conductors, grounding and bonding, hangers and supports, conduits, boxes and covers, identification systems, transformers, panelboards, and wiring devices. Security requirements mandate that contractors establish a Project Security Plan coordinated with MAA Office of Airport Security, including provisions for badged personnel, escorted non-badged workers, security coordinator designation, and compliance with 49 CFR 1542 Transportation Security Administration regulations. The total lump-sum cost for security materials and equipment shall not exceed 6 percent of the overall construction bid price. All construction debris must achieve a minimum 75 percent salvage and recycling rate by weight, with 100 percent recovery of uncontaminated packaging materials. Contractors must provide four complete sets of bound operation and maintenance manuals plus three electronic copies in PDF format, with interim manuals required for each phased turnover.
