About this opportunity
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is seeking contractors to replace fire smoke dampers and actuators at the Tri-Cities Air Traffic Control Tower located at 2711 Highway 75 in Blountville, Tennessee. The project involves replacing ten existing fire smoke dampers across various levels of the facility, including elevator lobbies, lavatories, stairs, and mechanical rooms, with contractors required to provide all labor, materials, transportation, and supervision. Work must be performed between 12:00 AM and 6:00 AM Monday through Friday, with the contractor's workforce continuously escorted by FAA personnel to prevent disruptions to aircraft control operations. The FAA will award the contract to the responsible offeror providing the best value, considering price and other solicitation criteria outlined in the solicitation. The original offer due date of August 21, 2025 has been extended to September 12, 2025, with questions requiring submission three days prior to the deadline to Linda.Hennequant@faa.gov. Optional site visits were conducted on August 26, 2025 and September 4, 2025 to allow potential contractors to assess the work site.
The solicitation originally designated as a small business set-aside under Amendment 0001 but was changed to full and open competition under Amendment 0002, removing restrictions on contractor size eligibility. The estimated contract value is less than $50,000, with the contractor required to complete all work within 30 calendar days after receiving the Notice to Proceed and begin work within 5 calendar days of that notice. The project specifically involves replacing ten fire smoke dampers throughout the multi-level air traffic control tower facility, with comprehensive technical drawings and specifications provided in Amendment 0003. Performance will take place at the Tri-Cities Air Traffic Control Tower in Blountville, Tennessee, requiring coordination with facility management and adherence to strict safety protocols given the critical nature of air traffic control operations. The contractor must also comply with Davis-Bacon wage determination requirements for the counties of Hawkins and Sullivan in Tennessee, with specific hourly rates and fringe benefits outlined for various construction trade classifications.
