Supply, Installation & Commissioning of Helipad Lighting, Firefighting Pump and X-Ray System at Prime Minister's Residence

Overview

A helipad lighting system, a firefighting pump, and a hand baggage X-ray system were supplied, installed, and commissioned at the Prime Minister's Residence, Baluwatar, for the Federal Secretariat Construction and Management Office (FSCMO), under reference MSI-PRJ-76-2102. Procurement followed National Competitive Bidding procedures.

The site was an operational, high-security government facility, which limited excavation, equipment placement, and system downtime during installation, requiring coordination across the helipad lighting, fire protection, and security screening components. The project ran five months and completion was recorded in August 2022.

Scope & Deliverables

• Supply and installation of helipad lighting components: FATO lights, TLOF lights, aiming point lights, obstruction lights, beacon lights, and flood lights.
• Installation of control systems for the helipad lighting.
• Supply and commissioning of a firefighting portable pump.
• Installation of a hand baggage X-ray machine.
• Electrical wiring, earthing systems, and associated infrastructure works.
• Equipment and installation practices aligned with both European and American equipment standards.
• Testing and commissioning of all systems.

Outcome

All systems were tested and commissioned for operational use. The helipad lighting system, with its associated control systems, was made operational for helicopter operations at the residence. The firefighting pump was commissioned for emergency fire response, and the hand baggage X-ray machine was installed for security screening at entry points.
