The core scope of work for this tender involves the electrical planning, conversion, and expansion of the main fire station in Ulm, which includes an integrated control center. The services required are planning services for the electrical technical equipment, encompassing service phases 1 to 9 according to HOAI (German Fee Schedule for Architects and Engineers). The project, named "Hauptfeuerwache Ulm," is scheduled to commence in January 2027 and conclude by December 2032. Planning is expected to begin in Spring 2027, with construction targeted for Spring 2030 and completion by the end of 2032.

A key deliverable is a solution sketch (Lösungsskizze), which should present conceptual solution approaches and technical focus areas based on existing documentation and functional requirements, rather than a detailed object-related design. This sketch needs to address several specific areas:

• Electrical equipment for a typical social and standby area of a watch department, including lighting and shading concepts, considering ergonomics, electronic infrastructure, and user needs.
• Building automation and control technology, demonstrating energy-optimized and needs-based control, user-friendly operation, visualization, monitoring, and integration into a higher-level management system.
• Technical infrastructure for the integrated control center, focusing on high availability, redundancy, continuous operation, and interfaces with other technical trades.
• Sustainable and future-proof plant operation, considering energy efficiency, flexibility, ease of maintenance, expandability, and the integration of new technical systems into the existing building.
• Ensuring uninterrupted electrical operation during the conversion and expansion phases, particularly regarding critical power and IT infrastructure.

The client for this project is the City of Ulm, specifically its Central Procurement Office VOB. The estimated maximum construction volume is approximately EUR 14,500,000 gross (KG 300-400 according to DIN 276-1:2008-12).
