Project Description

The project is located at Patrick Space Force Base in Brevard County, Florida an includes the renovation of existing Hangar 985 and Building 986 which were originally constructed in the early 1950’s. Hangar 985 and Building 986 are bounded by an aircraft apron to the north, an access road to the west and east, and a parking lot to the south. Existing aprons, parking, roads, and other adjacent facilities will remain in place and in operation during construction except for parking immediately south of Hangar 985 and the aircraft apron north of the project site which will be used for construction laydown areas.

Hangar 985 will be unoccupied prior to the start of abatement and demolition activities. The contractor will be required to completely gut and refurbish Hangar 985 from the building envelope

in. Enlarging the wings for operational and maintenance functions to create additional space will also be required. Hangar 985 existing square footage is 40,053 SF. Additions will increase the total by approximately 4,000 SF.

Contractor will renovate various spaces within Building 986 to improve the functionality of building services and eliminate current health hazards such as mold and bird droppings. A portion of the building will be occupied during renovations. Building 986 existing square footage being renovated is approximately 19,495 SF. Additions are approximately 3000 SF. Renovation of Building 986 will include the replacement of the existing hangar roof, replacement of the roof and roof structure of the east wing, replacement of bird netting in the hangar spaces, and the addition of fans and ventilation in those spaces as well as updates to the office spaces and building services for these office spaces. The project is not expected to reach any trigger points requiring upgrades to fire protection, antiterrorism/force protection (ATFP), accessibility, etc.; nonetheless, the project will ensure that the replacement of windows and doors will meet current ATFP requirements.

The project site is generally flat with no significant drainage features on the project site.

Landscaping is minimal. To the best extent possible, no alterations to the project site will occur except as required for infrastructure needed to support the facility renovation and reconstruction.

• Abatement will be completed concurrently with design.

• The initiation of construction will overlap with the completion of the design.

• Award will be in March 2026.

• The Government intends to award the Base Work at a minimum but will award Optional

Work depending on sufficient budget.

• Fast Track exterior utilities and demolition design

If you are interested in participating in the Industry Day, please respond in writing to the following questions by March 24, 2025. Answers to these questions will facilitate constructive discussion during the Industry Day as well as assist the Government in establishing a reasonable period of performance. Respondents will remain anonymous.

1. Based on the information provided, how long does your firm roughly estimate it will take to complete abatement and design, if completed concurrently?

2. Based on the information provided, how long does your firm roughly estimate it will take to complete construction?

3. Based on the information provided, how long does your firm roughly estimate it will take to complete the entire contract assuming the completion of abatement/design overlaps with the initiation of construction?

4. If all options awarded with the base work; does your firm believe the optional work can be done concurrently with the Base Work or will additional time be required? If so, are their any optional items in particular you feel will require additional time to complete.

5. What risks do you see with this project?
