- Description
- NASA/Johnson Space Center (JSC) has a requirement for a revision to the existing design package for the Building 221 Replace Switchgears Project and to initiate a design for replacing and upgrading the Switchgears Tie-Bus. NASA/JSC intends to issue a sole source contract to acquire the services from the Architecture/Engineering (A/E) Firm of Burns & McDonnell (B&McD).� Some of the B221 Switchgear Project design was covered under the B221 Replace Ring Bus Project, which was design by a different A/E firm.� Specifically, some of the AC panels, DC panels and manual DC transfer switches called out in the Switchgears design were replaced in B221A, B221B and B221F by the Ring Bus Project.� Additionally, the function of the direct transfer trip for the Central Heating & Cooling Plant (CHP) generators was incorporated into the SEL-421 transmission line relays logic by the Ring Bus Project.� The Ring Bus Project used the legacy Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) for some of the control parameters and data transmitted to the CHP and Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT); therefore, the Supervisory Control & Data Acquisition (SCADA) design for the Switchgear Project needs to be revisited and redesigned as required.� In addition, since the completion of the Switchgear Project design, JSC�s electrical provider, CenterPoint (CNP) requires all substations to adhere to their 4000 Amp and current area wind load requirements.� This will require JSC to replace and upgrade the Switchgear Tie-Bus and related structures.� Unfortunately, B&McD were not selected for the Southeast Regional Architect and Engineering (SERAE) contract.� But their knowledge, experience and ability to expeditiously make the Switchgear Project design whole warrants their services.� Under the authority of 6.302-1,�Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements The Government does not intend to acquire a commercial item using FAR Part 12.��� Interested organizations may submit their capabilities and qualifications to perform the effort electronically via email to Contract Specialist Reginald Hayes at reginald.t.hayes@nasa.gov and Contracting Officer Lara Procknow at lara.n.procknow@nasa.gov not later than May 17, 2024, at 1:00 p.m. Central Time.� Such capabilities/qualifications will be evaluated solely for the purpose of determining whether or not to conduct this acquisition on a competitive basis.� A determination by the Government not to compete this acquisition on a full and open competition basis, based upon responses to this notice, is solely within the discretion of the Government. NASA Clause 1852.215-84, Ombudsman, is applicable. The Center Ombudsman for this acquisition can be found at : https://www.hq.nasa.gov/office/procurement/regs/Procurement-Ombuds-Comp-Advocate-Listing.pdf
