Report

Summary

The purpose of this project is to replace and upgrade the Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport Terminal 4 processor fire pump and the connected service entrance section electrical equipment to support the existing and new fire pump loads and to comply with fire and electrical code requirements. A study of the existing Terminal 4 fire protection system, prepared by SmithGroup, Inc. as part of the construction of the new Terminal 4 South Concourse 1, found that the existing fire pump currently serving Terminal 4 will need to be replaced. In addition, the 30-year old electrical service needs to be upgraded to accommodate the new fire pumps.

 

Chasse Building Team, Inc. will begin in an agency support role for Construction Manager at Risk Preconstruction Services. Chasse Building Team, Inc. will assume the risk of delivering the project through a Guaranteed Maximum Price agreement.
