- Description
- The 325th Contracting Squadron at Tyndall AFB, FL intends to award a sole source contract to Siemens Building Technologies for the installation of Direct Digital Controls (DDC) for existing HVAC system at base hospital. The magnitude of the project is between $100,000 - $250,000. Acquisition of specific make and model components are necessary due to the existing basewide components (DDC) manufactured by Siemens. The DDC system at Tyndall currently utilizes Insight Apogee 600 software and controls, as manufactured by Siemens Building Technologies. The DDC system utilizes a proprietary data interface on all the circuits tying to other remote computerized fire alarm reporting panels. This proprietary data interface will not allow for interface of the Siemens Insight Apogee 600 system to any other manufacturer?s reporting system. No manufacturer can interface to this proprietary data interface without obtaining a license for the computer language and data interface from Siemens Building Technologies. The Base Civil Engineering office requires that all facilities provide for two-way interface with the base-wide DDC system for operational and maintenance purposes. The central DDC system also serves as the base?s Energy Management Control System (EMCS). Additionally, the UL listing required is typically only for a single manufacturer?s equipment. It does not test intermixing of various hardware. As a result, software from other manufacturers? systems will not allow proper communications with the Siemens Insight Apogee 600 software and hardware system, which is necessary for the Base Civil Engineering office to maintain service for facilities and equipment. To assure compatibility with the existing Siemens components, it is required that only the addition of Siemens components be used to assure fully compatible and effective systems.
