The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) is seeking interested sources (contractors) for a near-future solicitation and procurement to install solar photovoltaic systems at multiple locations. NACIS 237130 (size standard $33.5 Million) applies. The VA is seeking a "Turn-Key" procurement, which will include all work. The VA will not accept any offers that disclaim parts of the required work to make the unit complete and ready for use. The offeror to the RFP when issued will provide all work to include the equipment selection, permitting, bonding and installation of a photovoltaic system. The system shall be capable of providing 480 volt, 3-phase power. There are motor control centers, elevator panels, and electric power distribution panels in each of the locations. The proposal will describe how solar power is delivered into the building system. The final system configuration will allow automatic operation without operator intervention. System design and equipment specifications should minimize maintenance requirements. System will include metering with modem for remote data collection and display on vendor provided web site of system performance. System performance will include at a minimum solar irradiance, DC power, AC real power, AC current, AC voltage, and power factor (recommend ION 8600 for AC); ambient air temperature, PV cell temperature and AC energy during different monitoring periods from 1 hour to 1 year. Contractor will try to utilize green building materials where applicable. The project should meet VA design standards (http://www.va.gov/facmgt/standard/) wherever applicable. Since this is a sources sought announcement, no evaluation letters and/or results will be issued to the respondents. No solicitation exists; therefore, do not request a copy of the solicitation. If a solicitation is released it will be synopsized on the GSA e-buy portal. It is the potential offeror's responsibility to monitor e-buy for the release of any solicitation or synopsis. Respondents will not be notified of the results of the evaluation. The Government reserves the right to consider a small business, SDVOSB, VOSB or 8(a) set-aside based on responses hereto. 2. SUBMITTAL INFORMATION: All responses must include the following information: Company name, cage code, CCR number, Dunn & Bradstreet number, company address, Point-of-Contact name, phone number, fax number, and email.
