Project Description

The Birmingham Airport Authority (BAA) is soliciting Statements of Qualifications (SOQ)

and Project Proposals from qualified engineering firms (firms) to perform engineering

services for the preliminary investigation, design, bidding, and construction phases for

the following project at the Birmingham-Shuttlesworth International Airport (BHM):

Terminal Inbound Baggage Carousel Replacement Project

See Exhibit A for approximate project limits. The selected firm shall be obligated to

perform the necessary work through completion of construction and the closeout

process for the project. This project is anticipated to receive an Airport Improvement

Program (AIP) grant from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). The selected firm

will need to be familiar with the process and required documentation associated with

the AIP grant process. This includes, but is not limited to, FAA grant assurances, FAA

airport design and construction standards, 14 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 77

airspace requirements, as well as familiarization with other FAA Orders, Advisory

Circulars (AC), and the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) process.

Project Background

This project will provide design and construction administration services for the replacement of

5 inbound baggage claim devices (4 domestic and 1 FIS) and their respective subsystems within

the terminal facility at BHM. All carousels proposed for replacement have met the end of their

useful life, are exhibiting signs of extreme wear and need replacement to bring the associated

facilities into conformity with current standards.

Replacement of the inbound baggage claim carousels will need to achieve compliance with

Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) standards, include energy efficient technologies that

reduce the overall power consumption, and optimize the associated space for efficiency.

Construction phase services will be tasked separately from design and will be negotiated per

FAA requirements (AC 150/5100-14E).

This page summarizes the opportunity, including an overview and a preview of the attached documents.
