The Federal Bureau of Prisons is conducting market research for a project to tie-in to the existing centralized water softener system at FCI Jesup. The project involves tapping into the existing 12-inch ductile iron water main, reducing it to 6-inch pipe, and supplying water to the new water softener system. The work includes excavating around an existing check valve vault, installing a 12-inch valve, and installing tie-ins for a 6-inch supply and return on the 12-inch water main underground. The project must comply with local, state, and federal regulations. • The project is located at FCI Jesup, a federal correctional facility in Jesup, GA. • The project requires all labor, materials, and equipment necessary for completion. • The project must be completed within 95 calendar days. • The contractor must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) at www.sam.gov. • The contractor must undergo a security clearance investigation, which may take 15 calendar days to complete.
