JBE081 F-22 Fuel Dispensing System

F-22 Fuel Dispensing System, JBER, ALASKA (JBE081)

THIS IS A SOURCES SOUGHT ANNOUNCEMENT ONLY.  The US Army Engineer District, Alaska is conducting market research to facilitate a determination of acquisition strategy for an FY25 Design Bid Build Construction Project.  The determination of acquisition strategy for this acquisition lies solely with the government and will be based on this market research and information available to the government from other sources.  The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Alaska District, is conducting this market research to identify businesses which have the capability to perform the following work:

The selected contractor is required to have sufficient staff, flexibility, and capability to be available on an as-needed basis. Interested firms must be able to provide all management, tools, supplies, parts, materials, equipment, transportation, and trained labor necessary to replace the fuel infrastructure for F-22 aircraft to ensure readiness to support Global Strike Task Force and to project overall air dominance. This project includes planning documentation for a new JP-8 Tank Farm #6 that consists of two 5,000-Battel (210,000 gallon) above ground fuel storage tanks, pumphouse, 4 position truck fill stand, 2 position truck offload stand, and a connection to the existing transfer pipeline to Tank Farm #5. The system is in need of replacement as it has well exceeded the expected service life for aircraft refueling systems. The concrete structure is starting to fall apart causing a hazard to personnel operating the system while in the structure. Fuel tanks 49 and 50 (located partially under the structure) require extensive coating repairs every five years that result in extensive out of service time. During these out-of-service times the facility impacts mission fuel supply needs and adds additional refilling requirements. The current fuel system only has four tanks (187,000 gallons) that is reduced to two tanks during repairs, resulting in multiple resupplies of the tanks daily to continue supplying fuel for aircraft. Additionally, this facility lacks inbound/receipt filtration as required by UFC 3-460-01. The estimated dollar magnitude of this project is anticipated between $25,000,000 and $100,000,000.
