The Army National Guard 183d Wing at Abraham Lincoln Capital Airport, Springfield, Illinois, intends to solicit a firm-fixed-price construction contract for UPS system upgrade with estimated solicitation posting in the last week of July 2026 and an anticipated industry site visit in the first week of August. The acquisition carries a total small business set-aside. Estimated contract magnitude falls between $25,000 and $250,000 and will be conducted under FAR Part 13 Simplified Acquisition Procedures.
The contractor shall remove an existing 10 kW Liebert EXM UPS system from Building 8 and install a new scalable 20 kW UPS system configured for 20 kVA/kW with scalability up to 30 kVA/kW for future expansion. The system must be three-phase 208V compatible with existing electrical infrastructure and include redundant N+1 power modules, hot-swappable VRLA battery modules with Building Management Systems integration, SNMP/Modbus/BACnet monitoring interfaces, and cabinet-integrated bypass module with four breaker configurations. All work must meet Unified Facilities Criteria and DoD Technical Publication TP-19 Static Uninterruptible Power Supply standards.
Performance period is 120 days or less following Notice to Proceed. Scope includes demolition, site and electrical preparation, full system installation and testing by factory-trained personnel, sealing of all wall/floor/ceiling penetrations to maintain fire and assembly ratings, and one-year manufacturer and workmanship warranties. Work is performed during standard hours (7:00 AM–4:30 PM Monday–Friday, alternating Fridays off) at the Springfield, Illinois facility.
The requirement will be solicited as "Brand Name or Equal" for systems equivalent to the Vertiv Liebert Model APM2. A draft SOW is attached for market research only; formal quotes should not be submitted at this time.
