Statement of Work

Project AWUB 13-0016 Repair Fire Suppression

Bldgs 6214 and 6215

1. In general, the scope of work for this project shall include project design, the furnishing of all materials, labor, supplies, and equipment necessary for the correction of fire suppression deficiencies at Buildings 6214 and 6215. The contractor shall complete all work in accordance with this statement of work and code requirements.

2. Code Compliance:

Where applicable, all work performed under this contract shall meet all federal, state and local codes and standards including but not limited to UFC 3-600-01, UFC 3-600-02, AFI 32-1066, NFPA’s, AFOSH, AFMAN 91-201, UFC 3-410-01FA for Mechanical, UFC 3- 420-01 for Plumbing, UFC 4-211-01 for Fire, International Building Code, Air Force Technical Letters (ETLs), National Electric Code, ASHRAE Standards, SMACNA Standards, International Plumbing Code, etc. Where any ambiguity exists between standards, the most stringent shall apply. This does not apply to fire requirements. UFC 4-211-01 is written as the most appropriate for AF not necessarily the most stringent.

3. Facilities:

a. B6214

1. Current Conditions:

Building 6214 (B-52 Nose Dock maintenance hangar): The facility has a low-level AFFF foam suppression and overhead wet-pipe automatic sprinkler systems. The AFFF system has oscillating foam nozzles. Each nozzle has a shutoff valve that is not locked or electronically monitored. Both the AFFF and wet-pipe sprinkler risers don’t have surge suppression tanks. A small section of AFFF concentrate pipe is not stainless steel pipe. The AFFF system diverting valves are no longer functional to divert foam to the holding tank. AFFF solution currently flows into the sanitary system if the system were discharged. The hangar bay has some ultraviolet/infrared (UV/IR) flame detectors, but they are used for alarm only. They do not trigger AFFF foam discharge. Some foam discharge stations are located too close to the FA manual pull stations. Some exit doors don’t have an exit sign or light. The fire alarm panel is M-2 Monaco panel. There is no smoke detector to protect the panel. There is no MNS in the facility. (See attached prints of Fire Alarm and Fire Suppression System)

2. Work Elements:

- Install surge suppression tanks on both foam and wet-pipe sprinkler system risers IAW UFC 4-211-01.

- Install electronic monitor for all control/shutoff valves at the foam nozzles.

- Replace copper piping section at the AFFF proportioner with stainless steel pipe.

- Replace the AFFF diverting valve and piping to direct AFFF solution to the holding tanks. It would violate Environmental policies if the AFFF solution is discharged into the sanitary system.

b. B6215

1. Current Conditions:

Building 6215 (B-52 maintenance hangar): The facility has low-level AFFF foam suppression and overhead wet-pipe automatic sprinkler systems. AFFF system has 5 oscillating foam nozzles. Both AFFF and wet-pipe sprinkler risers don’t have surge suppression tanks. AFFF system diverting valves are no longer functional to divert foam to the holding tank. AFFF solution currently flows into the sanitary system if the system were discharged. AFFF diverting valve is encased in concrete and there is no access for maintenance. Foam test headers are connected before the foam proportioner. Foam concentrate piping does not have control valve. Some exit doors don’t have exit sign or light and are not latched properly. The fire alarm panel is M-2 Monaco panel. It is currently in trouble alarm because the foam releasing panel is in trouble. There is no MNS in the facility. (See attached prints of Fire Alarm and Fire Suppression System).

“Construction and Demolition (C&D) debris is generated as a result of construction, renovation, or demolition activities. Although C&D debris is usually considered a single waste stream, the composition actually varies with each activity and the type, size, and location of the structures involved. Disposing of C&D debris in landfills consumes enormous amounts of space and is both economically and environmentally costly. In accordance with AFI 32-7042 and BAFB’s Integrated Solid Waste Management Plan (ISWMP), ALL WEIGHTS OF C&D MATERIALS

RECYCLED AND DISPOSED MUST BE REPORTED TO THE RECYCLE PROGRAM

MANAGER.”

18. CONTRACT COMPLETION INSPECTIONS

The contractor will schedule (preferably with 3 working days notice) a pre-completion inspection to be held approximately 10 calendar days prior to the expiration of the contract. This inspection may result in a "punch list" indicating items to be furnished or work to be completed by the contractor or subcontractors in order to complete the work specified in the contract documents. This list may not be construed to be all inclusive. A copy of the list will be furnished to the contractor within 2 workdays for his use in completing the contractual work. If the pre-completion inspection results in no "punch list" and the work is complete, this inspection may be considered the "final" inspection as determined by the Contracting Officer. If required, the contractor will be responsible for scheduling the contract completion inspection (preferably with 3 working days notice) to be held no later than the final day of contract performance.

Should this inspection result in a "punchlist", the contractor will have 10 calendar days (after receipt of punchlist) to complete all punchlist items and notify the Contracting Officer of this.

NO FINAL INVOICE SHALL BE PAID UNTIL ALL PUNCHLIST ITEMS ARE COMPLETED TO

THE SATISFACTION OF THE CONTRACTING OFFICER. Should a contractor exceed the time allowed for these corrections, it may result in negative past performance which could affect future contract awards.

19. PERFORMANCE INFORMATION

NOTICE TO PROCEED will be issued within 30 calendar days after award of contract. Award date shall be established as the date of mailing or otherwise furnishing a properly executed award document to the successful offeror.

20. WORK SCHEDULE:

Working hours for the contractor will normally be between the hours of 7:30 a.m. and 6 p.m.

excluding Saturdays, Sundays and Federal Holidays (New Year’s Day, Birthday of Martin Luther King, Jr., Presidents Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Columbus Day, Veteran’s Day, Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day). If the contractor desires to work during periods other than above, additional government inspection forces may be required.

The contractor must notify the contracting officer three days in advance of his/her intention to work during other periods to allow assignment of additional inspection forces when the contracting officer determines they are reasonably available. If such force is reasonably available, the contracting officer may authorize the contractor to perform work during periods

FA4608-18-R-0012

other than normal duty hours/days, however, if inspections are required to perform in excess of their normal duty hours/days solely for the benefit of the contractor, the actual cost of inspection at overtime rates will be charged to the contractor. These adjustments to the contract price may be made periodically as directed by the contracting officer.

21. DELIVERY TIME:

The period of performance on this project will be 150 Calendar days from the Notice to Proceed (NTP) date.
