Description

INTRODUCTION: The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), Program Contracting Activity Central (PCAC) anticipates soliciting bids and subsequently awarding a single, Firm-Fixed-Price contract, utilizing the DESIGN-BID-BUILD approach, for the construction of a Combined Heat and Power (CHP) Plant at the Atlanta, GA VA Medical Center (VAMC). PROJECT DESCRIPTION: In an effort to improve energy efficiency and reduce energy consumption, the Department of Veterans Affairs has commissioned the design and construction of a Combined Heat and Power (CHP) and New Steam Generation Plant at the Atlanta VA Medical Center (VAMC) in Decatur, DeKalb County, Georgia. The CHP Plant will include three nominal 2.6 megawatt natural-gas fired, spark ignition engine generator sets. Planned facility upgrades also include replacement of the three (3) existing boilers with four (4) new dual-fired, fire tube boilers and a new control room housed in an existing portion of the Facility. Three generator sets units will provide new, reliable, and efficient sources of electrical generation and steam for the VAMC. In addition, operation of the CHP will reduce emission levels of carbon dioxide (CO2) and greenhouse gases when compared to conventional means of power generation and distribution. The generators will be equipped with air emissions control, critical grade mufflers, heat recovery equipment to meet the requirements of a non-attainment area within the metropolitan Atlanta area, to attenuate noise as well as to maximize energy recovery. The project will consist of a new ~24,600 square foot standalone building for the installation of three generator sets, emissions treatment systems, associated mechanical and electrical systems, and support areas. The structure will consist of a four story building for the CHP Plant with the ground level housing the generator sets as well as an associated single-story, high-bay structure. The first level will accommodate the air emissions control equipment and the electrical switch gear. The second level will contain the SCR chambers and air handling equipment. The third level will house the heat recovery steam generators and other plant equipment. Roof mounted equipment will include remote radiators and ventilation intake hoods. New controls systems will integrate the new CHP plant and new boilers into the facilities existing systems. Primary generator power will be provided to the VAMC through new 20 kV tie-ins within the existing electrical vault with the existing main power service from the utility company being rearranged to accommodate the parallel connections. ADMINISTRATIVE: The solicitation will be issued as an "Invitation for Bid" (IFB) conducted in accordance with FAR Parts 14, 19, and 36 and be evaluated in accordance with the procedures therein. The solicitation will be advertised as Full & Open Competition. The applicable NAICS code is 237130 with a size standard of $33.5 million. The solicitation will be issued on or about April 25, 2014. The period of performance is approximately 540 calendar days from the issuance of the Notice to Proceed. This notice is not a request for competitive offers. The Magnitude of Construction is expected to be between $20,000,000.00 and $50,000,000.00. All questions must be submitted in writing to the issuing office via email to donald.marsh2@va.gov. Telephone calls will not be accepted. -END-
