Specs Guarantee Period.docx

This is a memorandum regarding specifications for guarantee period services related to a lightning protection system upgrade project at the Sheridan VA Health Care System. Dated June 30, 2026, the document addresses Job No. 666-27-112 for Building 71N Lightning Protection Upgrade at the facility located at 1898 Fort Road, Sheridan, Wyoming 82801. The memorandum identifies products used on the project that will have warranties extending beyond the standard one-year General Contractor Warranty. However, the document indicates "None" under the list of such products, meaning no items on this project carry extended warranty periods beyond the general contractor's standard one-year coverage.

The related solicitation (36C25926Q0880) seeks a qualified contractor to perform lightning protection upgrades to Building 71N of the Sheridan VA Medical Center to achieve compliance with current NFPA 780 and UL96A standards. The existing system, installed in 1989, requires repairs including reattachment of detached air terminals, installation of Transient Voltage Surge Suppression (TVSS) devices, and modifications to accommodate recent roof construction that has obstructed portions of the protection system. The work involves upgrades to the continuous grounding loop that encircles Buildings 9, 71, and 71N, with down conductors and air terminals requiring inspection and remediation to meet current code requirements.
