SYNOPSIS: The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Transatlantic Middle East District (TAM) is conducting market research to identify businesses that have the capability to perform the following construction work in the Kingdom of Bahrain: Provide design-bid-build construction of P-974 Electrical System Upgrade at Naval Support Activity (NSA), Kingdom of Bahrain. The P-974 Electrical System Upgrade project will support operational requirements at NSA by providing a more resilient medium-voltage distribution system. Increased resiliency provides a more secure system with fewer single points of failure, as well as a more flexible system in which outages and fluctuations are managed, lessening the impacts to critical facilities. This project consists of the construction of the following: electrical distribution duct banks and cabling to provide pathway diversity for the existing medium-voltage loops to allow connection between Master Switch Center 1 (MSC- 1) and Master Switch Center 2 (MSC-2); a new larger P-3 substation to accommodate additional and larger generators to expand the capacity from 1MVA to 3MVA to support the growing mission within the Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Collaboration and Intelligence (C5I) Complex; and a P-3 substation automatic switchgear for the backup generators to provide sensing and switching to select between the normal source transformers and the backup generators. This project also provides upgrades to the Baseband Equipment Room III (BER III) power distribution equipment, panel boards, power distribution systems (PDU) and includes a redundant busway system to provide power to the server racks, as well as upgrades to Building #103 HVAC system and power distribution to support the expansion of the uninterrupted power system (UPS), electrical system, equipment and low-voltage switchgear. Electrical utilities include transformers, switchgear, generators with fuel storage tanks, UPS systems, metering and pad-mounted medium-voltage switches. Phased demolition of identified existing facilities Building #102 (P3 Substation; 212 m2) to make room for the new larger substation.
