NEXCOM is seeking industry input to refine a design/build elevator replacement project at Navy Lodge Yokosuka in Japan.
- **Government buyer:** Department of the Navy, Navy Exchange Service Command (NEXCOM), at Commander Fleet Activities Yokosuka for Navy Lodge Buildings 1315 and 1316. Supporting technical specifications were prepared by the Tri-Services, including USACE, NAVFAC, and AFCEC.
- **Scope:** Replace two aging traction passenger elevators originally manufactured by **Fujitec**; each existing unit is rated at 1,450 kg. Refurbish, rather than replace, the existing elevator cabs, and install a communications line in each cab.
- **OEM:** **Fujitec** is identified as the manufacturer of the existing elevators. No manufacturer is specified for the replacement systems, and no part numbers are provided.
- **Project work:** Design, demolition and disposal of existing non-structural equipment, procurement and installation, cab refurbishment, system integration, testing, commissioning, inspections, and closeout documentation. Work must be phased to keep the occupied lodge operational and limit disruption.
- **Notable requirements:** Replacement systems must meet applicable NAVFAC, ADA, U.S. and Japanese safety/code requirements and interface with emergency power, fire alarm/life-safety systems, building management systems (BMS), and base communications infrastructure. Controls must support bilingual use; cab finishes require NEXCOM Hospitality Group approval; a third-party Qualified Elevator Inspector (QEI) inspection is required.
- **Technical specification context:** The attached Japan-edited electric traction elevator specification describes EMSA-compliant passenger elevators (3,500 lb), standard passenger elevators (2,500 lb), and larger freight/passenger elevators (4,000–4,500 lb, with an option up to 6,000 lb). These are specification types, not stated quantities for the two-building replacement. The specification also calls for a 12-month warranty, routine maintenance, 24-hour emergency response, and certification inspections.
- **Additional drawing content:** Related Yokosuka drawings identify elevator deficiency repairs at several buildings, including jump guards, counterweight guards, and shunt trips; no commercial part numbers or quantities are given for these components.
- **Market-research status:** This notice seeks feedback to refine the project requirements; it is not a request for proposal or quotation and does not commit the Government to an award.
- **Performance:** The planned project is anticipated to be completed within 440 calendar days after Notice to Proceed. The specification also describes 12 months of post-acceptance warranty service.
