- Description
- THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR QUOTE (RFQ) AND NO SOLICITATION IS AVAILABLE. �The Department of Energy (DOE) intends to issue a Firm Fixed Price award to a single source under the authority of FAR 6.302-1(a)(2)(ii) - �Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services will Satisfy Agency Requirements. �DOE intends to award this requirement as a sole source to Cook�s Mechanical Services (CMS.) �CMS is the sole provider for the required upgrade to the existing HVAC system. � The contractor shall provide the Department of Energy (DOE), Office of Scientific and Technical Information (OSTI), the required replacements of four Variable Air Volume (VAV) reheat hot water coils. OSTI�s HVAC system was completely replaced in 2021 by CMS. �Due to recent extreme cold weather, it was discovered the replaced HVAC system was not heating the exterior window offices properly or at an acceptable temperature. �CMS performed an extensive analysis of the existing system and diagnosed the problem with the HVAC system as a design flaw in the original engineering HVAC design. �CMS, along with consultation with the system manufacturer, has proposed the replacement of the existing VAV reheat hot water coils to increase VAV box heat output. �The current hot water coil capacity is 19.32 mbH (1,000 BTU/hour,) the replacement hot water coil capacity is 36.34 mbH, for an increase in heat output of 88% or 17.02 mbH. � � The original contract for the HVAC system installation was awarded to CMS in FY 2019 (contract number 89243119CSC000048 - $3M) and was completed in August of 2021. �The contract was a direct award under the Woman Owned Small Business (WOSB) Federal Contract Program. �The NAISC code for this requirement, 238220 - Plumbing, Heating, and Air-Conditioning Contractors with size standard of $16.5M, is no longer listed in the current NAISC code list for the WOSB program. �Therefore, the award cannot be directly awarded under the WOSB program. � Due to the familiarity and knowledge of the design of the HVAC system, CMS is the only viable contractor that can install the VAV hot water coils. �The recommended system changes are unique to CMS due to the analysis they performed on the existing system�s engineering design, which lead to the discovery of the design flaw. � �� The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this requirement is 238220 � Plumbing, Heating, and Air Conditioning Contractors, with the size standard of $19M. This notice of intent is not a request for proposals or quotes.� THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR QUOTE (RFQ) AND NO SOLICITATION IS AVAILABLE. Notwithstanding, any vendor who believes it can meet the requirement as stated herein may submit a response, which will be considered only if received by 5:00 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time on March 14, 2024. �Responses to this posting must be in writing and submitted to paynet@osti.gov. �A determination not to compete the proposed order based upon the responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the government. �Please note that any prospective offeror must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) at www.sam.gov prior to award in accordance with FAR part 4.11.
