No reimbursement will be made for any costs associated with providing information in response to this synopsis or any follow up information requests. Respondents will not be notified of the results of the evaluation. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers- Fort Worth District has been tasked to solicit for FY25 B6413 Building Renovation Secure Space in Barksdale Air Force Base, Louisiana. This project is converting the west wing of Hangar Building 6413 into an Administrative Space, fully compliant with ICD 705 and Tempest standards. The buildout will encompass approximately 28,000 square feet of two-story space, including the construction of a second floor within an open hangar bay. Given the building's historic status, coordination with the State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) will be required. The new administrative spaces will include a mix of open and private offices, conference rooms, planning rooms, training rooms, storage rooms, restrooms, breakrooms, telecommunication rooms, server rooms, and briefing rooms. Specific requirements for these spaces include breakrooms equipped with kitchenettes, and audio-visual rooms that meet ""Sound Group 4"" classification with Sound Transmission Class (STC) ratings per ICD 705. Restrooms will be upgraded to meet new occupancy codes, and general storage for office supplies will be provided. The existing ACS/IDS system will be reconfigured to align with the new space layout, and the network infrastructure will support NIPR, SIPR, JWICS, and SAP networks. Specialized rooms, such as telecommunication and server rooms, will be sized per I3A standards to accommodate the required networks. Other provisions include the installation of printers linked to the appropriate networks, an industrial shredder near the storage area, and a dedicated IT equipment storage room adjacent to the server room. Design specifications also stipulate that all door frames must be grout-filled, not insulation-filled, to prevent delays, and all doors must feature electric strikes within the doors themselves, not electric latches on the frames. Interior doors will be STC rated based on space requirements, while existing exterior doors will remain in place. Insulated partitions will be added behind existing hangar doors to meet thermal requirements, and all windows will be removed and replaced with matching exterior wall assemblies.
