About this file
This project manual details the Federal Aviation Administration's (FAA) fire sprinkler and life safety upgrade project for the Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport Base Building and TRACON facility. The comprehensive project involves replacing existing fire sprinkler systems, fire pumps, and related equipment to mitigate corrosion risks and improve fire protection infrastructure. Key scope elements include installing new Schedule 40 piping, converting preaction systems to wet-pipe systems, replacing two fire pumps and associated controllers, implementing nitrogen inerting systems, adding corrosion monitoring stations, and upgrading fire alarm system components.
The solicitation requires contractors to submit proposals by September 26, 2025, at 1:00 PM ET, with a mandatory site visit scheduled for September 16, 2025, at 9:00 AM MST. Interested contractors must submit participation interest by September 9, 2025. The project is anticipated to take 536 calendar days, with work primarily conducted during night shifts to minimize disruption to air traffic operations. Contractors must be registered in the Systems for Award Management (SAM) and have experience with complex fire protection system installations. The project will be executed under the Department of Transportation Federal Aviation Administration Southwestern Region.
