The Statement of Work (SOW) outlines the requirements for hiring a licensed engineer to upgrade the fire suppression system at Building 1102, Bays A & D, of Langley Air Force Base. The current water-based sprinkler system poses significant fire hazards due to the presence of Class V assets, necessitating a transition to a "no water" fire suppression approach using Honeywell Velociti Series 3 heat detectors. The contractor will conduct a site survey to assess detector needs and placement, install the new system, and deactivate the existing sprinkler system upon successful implementation. The engineer is responsible for conducting inspections, preparing detailed reports, and ensuring compliance with federal and state regulations. The period of performance for these services is set from April 31 to May 3, 2025. The project aims to enhance safety for personnel by providing an effective fire detection system, mitigating risks associated with the current setup, and complying with Department of Defense regulations. Contact information for project coordination is provided, alongside security protocol adherence requirements.
The 633rd Contracting Squadron is seeking potential sources for inspection services of fire protection systems, specifically for thermal detectors at Langley Air Force Base, Virginia. This request is part of a market research effort, not a solicitation, aimed at identifying a qualified small business to perform these inspections as part of a future firm-fixed-price contract. The current water sprinkler system in Building 1102 presents significant fire hazards, prompting the need for an upgrade to a heat detection system using Honeywell Velociti Series 3 detectors. A comprehensive site survey and installation must comply with state and federal regulations, with interim fire safety measures in place during the transition. Interested vendors must provide company details, including business size and estimated pricing by April 18, 2025. The gathered information will help shape the acquisition strategy for this critical safety project, highlighting the urgency to improve safety measures in an occupied facility prone to fire risks.
