- Description
- Naval Facilities Engineering Command, Mid-Atlantic intends to award a sole source contract to Duke Energy Corporation, North Carolina, under the authority of 10 U.S.C. 2913, which allows agencies to enter into agreements with gas or electric utilities to design and implement cost-effective demand and conservation incentive programs (including energy management services, facilities alterations, installation and maintenance of energy savings devices and technologies by the utilities) in order to address the requirements and circumstances of the installation. This contract is referred to as a Utility Energy Service Contract (UESC). For purposes of qualifying under this notice, an entity must meet the definition of a utility before an agreement can be initiated. The proposed procurement is for the implementation of various Energy Conservation Measures (ECMs) in specified areas at MCAS Cherry Point including the Fleet Readiness Center (FRC) East located on the installation in North Carolina. The primary goal of the project is to reduce energy consumption and provide more sustainable facility infrastructure. The preliminary audit will require on-site building investigation and evaluation to determine if any significant energy conservation opportunities exist, and whether further detail energy analysis is warranted. Specifically, the local audit must investigate opportunities of leveraging the on-going military construction (MILCON) central plant retrofit (P224). Under the UESC, the utility will examine the possibilities of a combined heat and power plant at the existing coal-fired plant, as well as other ECMs base-wide such as smart grid, micro-grid, industrial control systems, energy management control systems, HVAC, boilers, lighting, water, and building envelope improvements. The Government may elect to proceed with further phases under the UESC, which includes, but are not limited to, the feasibility study; the engineering and design phase; and the implementation phase. The preliminary audit shall be presented as two independent proposals detailing opportunities at MCAS Cherry Point and FRC East separately. The process requires that the responsible utility have the ability to provide or obtain financing on terms at least as good as those available to customers in a comparable service class or with a comparable risk profile. This contract will not be awarded until the implementation phase. Contractors will not receive compensation until completion of the implementation phase and payments will be based on a long term amortization schedule. This project will be financed in accordance with 10 U.S.C. 2913. No other type of entity is able to offer financing and the agency is unable to accept financing from any other type of entity. The total amount to be financed for this project is anticipated to be between $25,000,000.00 and $100,000,000.00. Energy savings will be determined on the basis of methods, agreed to by both parties, prior to ECP implementation. Consumption fluctuations may occur due to factors such as weather variations and changes in energy load due to the addition or removal of ancillary equipment. The contractor shall measure and document ECP performance following installation in accordance with an agreed upon performance assurance plan. Interested parties may identify their interest and ability to meet the requirements stated herein and may submit their corporate capabilities for consideration. The submission must include the DUNs Number and Cage Code. A determination by the Government to compete this proposed contract based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Contracting Officer. Responses to this posting must be submitted to Kathryn Balonek, NAVFAC Mid-Atlantic Contracting Officer at kathryn.balonek@navy.mil no later than September 29, 2016.
