S -- ENERGY SAVINGS PERFORMANCE CONTRACT (ESPC) SERVICES, SHEPPARD AIR FORCE BASE, TEXAS SOL F41612-97-R0095 POC LGCV/Shirley Story, Contract Specialist, 817/676-5187; Contracting Officer -- Christi L. Guess, 817/676-5196. This notice is published pursuant to Department of Defense Energy Policy Program Memorandum (DEPPM) 94-2, the Energy Policy Act of 1992 and Title 10 U.S.C. 2865. The Air Force and Sheppard AFB intend to enter into sole source negotiations with CES/Way International of Houston, Texas, to implement utility and energy system retrofits and enhancements at Sheppard AFB in Wichita Falls, Texas. The Air Force intends to implement basewide energy conservation measures for the full spectrum of energy conserving/efficiency improvements via an Energy Savings Performance Savings Contract (ESPC). An ESPC requires the contractor to provide the necessary capital to implement these improvements and guarantee the resulting savings will exceed the capital costs. The Air Force intends to pursue this action using the streamlined acquisition procedures authorized by the Energy Policy Act and DEPM 94-2 for acquisitions when the DOD installation's local servicing utility has conducted a previous competition. CES/Way International targeted Sheppard AFB in response to the TU Electric Demand-Side Management (DSM) Request For Proposals and was subsequently awarded a TU Electric DSM contract with financial incentives. There are no other known sources that identified Sheppard AFB in responding to the TU Electric request for proposals and there are no other known sources that could deliver the TU Electric financial incentives to Sheppard AFB. Types of Energy Conservation Measures (ECM) envisioned under this effort included, but are not limited to lighting systems, motors, control systems, heating, ventilating and air conditioning, etc. See numbered not 22.
