Quick Summary

The Department of the Air Force is soliciting proposals for the Repair Intersection Runway 03-21 & 15-33 project at Charleston AFB, SC. This Firm Fixed Price contract involves the removal and replacement of 136 large pavement panels at the intersection of the primary and secondary runways. The opportunity is issued under Full and Open Competition, with proposals due by June 15, 2026. Evaluation will prioritize Past Performance/Experience significantly over price.

Scope of Work

This project requires multi-discipline efforts, including construction contract administration, Critical Path Method (CPM) scheduling, submittal management, and closeout. The core work involves the removal and replacement of 136 pavement panels, each measuring 25 ft wide x 25 ft long x 24 inches deep. Work must be performed nightly between 2300-0700 hours, Thursday through Monday, ensuring the runway is open for daily aircraft traffic each morning. Key activities include saw cutting, removal, installation of temporary panels, and placement of permanent panels using fast-setting concrete capable of achieving strength for aircraft traffic within a 3-4 hour cure period.

Ancillary work includes milling and overlay of existing asphalt shoulders, installation of new runway centerline and edge lighting, runway markings, pavement grinding for smoothness, and pavement grooving. The project necessitates specialized capabilities and equipment, such as sawing and removal equipment for 24-inch pavement and volumetric mixers sufficient to place a minimum of 50 cubic yards of fast-setting concrete. Contractors must also provide a workforce capable of gaining clearance onto a secure flightline. Additional potential work includes unsuitable soil removal, spall repair, joint resealing, corner break repair, and airfield markings.
