Skagway New Boiler Project

Description: Pre-solicitation Notice: Design Build New Boiler System at the Skagway Border Station located at the Klondike Highway, Skagway, Alaska. The General Services Administration (GSA), Region 10 announces an opportunity for Design-Build for a New Boiler System at the Skagway Border Station located at the Klondike Highway, Skagway, Alaska. The Solicitation will be all-electronic including amendments. All documents will be posted on the https://SAM.gov website, with secure access required for Controlled Unclassified Information - Building documentation. Access requirements will be provided in the Solicitation. NOTE: GSA PBS Region 10 will NOT maintain a manual list of interested vendor. Project Background/Description: The General Services Administration has a requirement for design-build construction services for New Boiler System at the Skagway Border Station located at the Klondike Highway, Skagway, Alaska. The Skagway Border Station is a relatively new and modern border station, located in a remote area 5 miles outside of Skagway, in southeastern Alaska. The building was constructed in 1994 to meet the specific mission requirements of a border station and is occupied by Customs and Border Protection (CBP). It is a two-storied building, constructed of steel and concrete with a metal roof. The station building has one existing boiler which was installed in 1994. Based on an August 3, 2021, site visit, the boiler is operational. The piping is in dire condition due, having experienced significant corrosion due to (1) lack of proper glycol loop maintenance (2) chronically putting the boiler away wet, (3) and a poorly executed attempt to clean the glycol loop following the lapse in maintenance. Electricity is provided to the site by the local utility, with a 75kW generator provided for backup. Project Scope: The objective of this project is to provide design building services for new boiler system for the project site, to include (2) new boilers, (2) hot water pumps, new radiators, new unit heaters, glycol piping and associated appurtenances to all equipment, fuel oil system and connections, electrical connections, plumbing connections, and BAS controls with a Contract Substantial Completion date no later than 30 September 2022 to have the new system fully operational and commissioned for the Fall 2022 heating season. No assumption of current systems code compliance should be made. Contractor will be responsible for the complete design and installation which conforms to all current codes and standards. All electrical connections, terminations and integration to existing equipment will be the responsibility of installing contractor and all costs for associated effort will be included in cost proposal. All as-built information provided by GSA must be field verified by contractor prior to design.
