Replace Pumps and Motors - Arnold AFB

The Statement of Work (SOW) 16474-25-004 outlines the requirements for design/build services to replace up to seven pump and motor sets at Building 1090 of Arnold Engineering Development Complex, Arnold Air Force Base, Tennessee. The project, initiated due to the obsolescence of existing equipment, involves replacing pumps with capacities ranging from 5,000 to 50,000 gpm, along with associated electrical modifications. Key requirements include adherence to industry standards (API, ASTM, IEEE, NEMA, NFPA, UFC, UL), generation of new specifications and drawings, and strict administrative procedures for meetings, investigations, and hazardous material handling (asbestos and lead). The contractor must ensure new pumps fit existing footprints, meet efficiency standards, and include health monitoring probes. Detailed electrical design and replacement of conductors, space heaters, and local control stations are also specified. The project mandates 30%, 90%, and Final Design reviews, a comprehensive construction schedule, demolition by certified personnel, and extensive verification and testing, including Factory Acceptance Tests (FATs).
