This Statement of Work (SOW) details a Design/Build electrical repair project for Kirtland Air Force Base to replace switchboard breakers in Building 27496. The primary objective is to replace existing 1600A bolt-in style breakers with new "draw-out" style breakers, including associated equipment and wiring reconnections. The project requires a switchboard manufacturer's Professional Electrical Engineer and a Master Electrician to complete the work.

Key project requirements include: replacing breakers labeled 101A, 101B, MEP-9 "Tie", and 101; aligning loads to establish a vital bus with backup power; integrating HMI/PLC operations for breaker control; and providing spare 1600A draw-out breakers. The total project duration is 421 days, with specific milestones for design submittals (65%, 95%, and 100%), government reviews, construction, and final inspections. The project is located in a secure facility with strict access requirements, including U.S. citizenship and multiple forms of government-issued identification for personnel.

1. General Project Information

1.1. Design/Build (D/B) Purpose and Objective

1.1.1. This Statement of Work (SOW) identifies the design and construction services required to complete "Repair Electrical, B27496 (Replace Switchboard Breakers)" within Building 27496, Room 158 located on Kirtland Air Force Base (Kirtland AFB). The primary purpose and objective of this project is to replace the existing 1600A switchboard breakers with new, like-for-like “draw-out” style breakers. Many specialty disciplines are required to successfully complete this project. It is the Contractor’s responsibility to provide the necessary staff and skills to successfully complete this turnkey project as further described in this SOW. The drawings and specifications produced shall describe the facility to be constructed in accordance with the requirements referenced herein. The General Contractor and their sub-contractors, including necessary licensed design professionals, constitute the Design/Build (D/B Team).

1.1.2. The design shall include, but is not limited to, the following: Provide the services of all the licensed design professionals in the disciplines required to produce the design analysis, estimate, schedule, drawings, and specifications which shall describe the facility in strict accordance with the requirements outlined in this SOW. The build includes, but is not limited to, the following:

conducting field verifications, providing all labor, tools, equipment, permits, and licenses required to construct the project in strict accordance with the requirements outlined in this SOW.

1.2. Existing Building and Site Conditions

1.2.1. The existing Pow-R-Line C general-purpose distribution (Attachment A) switchboard has been discontinued. The existing bolt-in-style breakers are not feasible for system reliability. In the event of a breaker failure, it would take several hours to remove and replace this type of breaker.

1.3. Attachments and Reference Documents

1.3.1. The following documents and attachments are applicable to this SOW to the extent specified herein. These documents are provided with this SOW to assist the Contractor in completing the SOW requirements. It is the Contractor’s responsibility to field verify the accuracy of any information that has been provided by the Government.

2. Project Scope Requirements The following requirements apply to the Contractor throughout design and construction, and turnover of a turnkey project.

2.1. Qualified Requirements

2.1.1. This project will require the services of a switchboard manufacturer’s

Professional Electrical Engineer (PE).

2.1.2. In addition, this project will require the services of a Master Electrician to install electrical equipment.

2.2. General D/B Scope Requirements:

2.2.1. Contractor to replace “bolt-in” with “draw-out” style breaker. Contractor shall first validate the feasibility of retrofit of each 1600A breaker before completing any additional work with specific attention given to validate that MEP- 9 “Tie” breaker can also be retrofitted to “draw-out” style breaker.

2.2.2. Contractor shall provide all design and installation services required for the completion of this SOW. The design and installation shall be in accordance with all applicable codes as listed in Section 3.

2.2.3. The contractor is responsible for verifying the site electrical conditions and components prior to ordering materials for the project.

2.2.4. Replacement of the existing bolted 1600A switchboard breakers with a new like-for-like switchboard and new, “draw-out” style breakers, and replace associated equipment and wires as necessary to reconnect to and from existing equipment.

2.2.4.1. Provide one spare 1600A draw-out breaker for each 1600A breaker that has unique setpoints. Government anticipates that three spare breakers are required: breakers 101A and 101B will have identical setpoints, requiring one spare 1600A breaker for both 101A and 101B. MEP-9 “Tie” breaker and MEP-9 breaker are anticipated to each have unique setpoints each requiring a spare 1600A spare breaker. Contractor shall make assessment of how many spare 1600A “draw-out” style breakers are required and specify this in the proposal.

2.2.5. Contractor shall align loads to establish a vital bus with back-up power provided by MEP-9 isolable from the non-vital bus by MEP-9 “Tie” breaker. Relocate two loads that are currently on the MEP-9 side of MEP-9 “Tie” breaker to the public utility side of MEP-9 “Tie” breaker. The vacated location of the relocated loads shall be connected to a new panel board power from the MEP-9 side of the “Tie” breaker. Six loads presently powered from the public utility side of the “Tie” breaker shall be relocated in the newly installed panelboard in the same room.

2.2.6. Contractor shall align HMI/PLC to operate all 1600A breakers. Presently, as labeled on Attachment A, the HMI/PLC operate breakers labeled 101A and 101B while breakers labeled MEP9 “Tie” and 101 are operated manually by technicians following a local switching procedure. HMI/PLC operations will replace the manual operation of breakers.

2.2.7. Contractor shall provide electrical analysis drawings and shop drawings from the switchboard manufacturer for Government review and approval in PDF and DWG format. Perform electrical analyses in EasyPower.

2.2.8. The as-built documents shall include a one-line diagram, arc fault study, coordination study and breaker control logic drawing and EasyPower model.
