Giant Voice for RAF Fairford and RAF Welford

The Department of the Air Force United States Air Forces in Europe - Air Forces Africa seeks to expand and upgrade existing Giant Voice emergency notification systems at Royal Air Force bases in Fairford and Welford, United Kingdom. The contractor will be responsible for engineering, designing, furnishing, installing, and testing additions of new remote siren stations and upgrades to existing central control stations at each base to provide acoustic coverage expansion and replace outdated equipment. The contractor must meet all technical and performance standards outlined for the new and existing equipment, provide required testing plans, as-built drawings and other deliverables, with the period of performance to be determined upon contract award.

There is no set-aside designation. The work involves adding five new remote siren stations and upgrading control stations at two locations for the RAF Fairford system, and adding one new remote siren station and upgrading and relocating the single control station for the RAF Welford system. The upgrades also include replacing message communication boards and ensuring continued interoperability with each base's Blackberry AtHoc emergency notification system. Questions are due by May 25, 2023, with proposals to be submitted by the same date.
