P1112 Building 72 Resiliency, Portsmouth Naval Shipyard (PNSY), Kittery, Maine

Quick Summary

The Department of the Navy / NAVFACSYSCOM MID-ATLANTIC is soliciting proposals for P1112 B72 Resiliency Improvements at Portsmouth Naval Shipyard (PNSY), Kittery, Maine. This Design-Bid-Build (DBB) project involves constructing a 400,000 GPD desalination facility and integrating it with existing infrastructure. The acquisition is unrestricted for full and open competition. Proposals are due June 16, 2026, at 2:00 PM EDT.

Scope of Work

The primary objective is to design and construct a desalination facility with a non-potable process water production capacity of 400,000 gallons per day. This includes pumping produced water to an existing condensate receiver tank (base bid) and interconnecting with existing south and north cooling tower piping (bid option). The project also involves:

• Construction of the desalination plant within Building 72, supplied from a new pump station in Building 242.
• Hazardous material handling, structural, electrical, and mechanical work.
• Potential additional work via option items, including cooling tower permeate supply, piping material substitution, tunnel abandonment, storm drainage re-routing, post-construction services, and structural/mechanical installations (e.g., stairs, bridge cranes, accessory structures).
• Specific technical requirements include Allen-Bradley CompactLogix 5069 L3 controllers (brand-name justified), exterior lighting, and a 7.5-ton overhead electric traveling bridge crane.
• Compliance with fire prevention regulations (COMNAVREGMIDLANTINST 11320.11B) and adherence to detailed architectural and structural drawings, including those for masonry, concrete, and roof framing.
• Work within archaeological and historical areas requires specific environmental protocols.
