STATEMENT OF WORK
Project Title: Modernize Lighting - Des Moines Airbase Building 101 IA ARNG Ready
Building
Date: June 4, 2026
This Statement of Work (SOW) outlines the requirements for a complete lighting upgrade
project for building 101 at the Des Moines Ready Building for the Iowa Air National
Guard, 3100 Mckinley Ave Des Moines IA, 50321. The project involves the removal of the
current 2'x4' ceiling grid and tiles, and installation of new 2'x2' ceiling grid and tiles in
addition to replacing non-LED lighting fixtures to a 2'x2' LED flat panel identified in the
lighting specifications attachment. All other light fixtures throughout the facility will require
retrofit, such as can lights, storage area hung lighting, and fixed wall mounted to meet
specified lumen requirement and 4000K neutral color if applicable. Installation of new,
energy-efficient LED lighting fixtures throughout the building includes the replacement of
exterior wall packs, entry lights, flagpoles and display lights as applicable. In addition to
the lighting upgrade, this project will incorporate lighting controls such as occupancy
sensors, dimmer switches, and photocell devices by adding to replacing existing
mechanisms, to maximize energy savings and optimize lighting performance. The goal is to
reduce energy consumption, lower maintenance costs, and improve lighting
quality while maintaining a simplistic approach for users. This work is subject to funding
availability and may not be awarded upon receipt of quote.
* Site Assessment & Verification: (Recommended, not required) Conduct a
thorough assessment to verify the existing fixture count, types, and wiring

provided to the Owner.
* Fixture Removal: Carefully remove all existing non-LED lighting fixtures. The
