Description

P-1238, DESIGN-BUILD CONSTRUCTION OF GRID STABILITY & RESILIENCY 10 MW BATTERY ENERGY STORAGE (BESS), VARIOUS BUILDINGS AT MARINE CORPS AIR GROUND COMBAT CENTER (MCAGCC), TWENTYNINE PALMS, CA SOLICITATION NUMBER: N6247322R1204 The work to be acquired under this solicitation is for the Design-Build Construction Contract to install 10 MW of battery energy storage systems (BESSs) that will enhance energy security at various locations at Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center (MCAGCC) in Twentynine Palms, California. The BESSs shall be capable of powering numerous mission critical and support facilities at the distribution level during a utility grid outage. There are approximately 54 BESSs (each of which will include high energy density batteries, bidirectional inverters, and the associated controls) that will be standalone modular packaged units connected to one or more solar photovoltaic (PV) arrays. The BESSs will be connected to the solar PV systems for clean energy charging as well as to the installation's electric distribution system for utility power or on-site cogeneration system charging. The BESSs will be tied into the installation's microgrid (being built via project P-1232) so the battery energy can be discharged to level solar PV variability and stabilize the grid (electrical distribution system reliability), provide power to support black-start and islanding events (energy resilience), and reduce energy costs during peak demand/energy pricing periods (energy management/efficiency). Also, the BESS controls will be accredited to ensure the energy systems remain cyber secure. The goal for this project is to integrate BESSs into an electrical distribution microgrid on MCAGCC. The project installs and fully permits new BESSs capable of parallel operation, each located in proximity to existing PV systems. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code is 237130 (Power and Communication Line and Related Structures Construction), and the annual size standard is $39.5 million. This procurement is being advertised on an unrestricted basis inviting full and open competition. This procurement will use the two-phase Design-Build selection procedures and consists of one solicitation covering both phases with the intent to award a Firm-Fixed-Price construction contract to the responsible Offeror whose proposal, conforming to the Request for Proposal (RFP), will be most advantageous to the Government resulting in the best value, price and other factors considered. Price evaluation preference will be given to HUBZone firms, in accordance with FAR 52.219-4. The Government intends to evaluate proposals and award a contract without discussions. The period of performance of this project is 555 calendar days from contract award (inclusive of 15 calendar days for performance and payment bonds). The construction cost limitation is $10,364,940. Source Selection procedures will be used, and selection for award will be based on evaluation of the following: Phase One: Factor 1 - Technical Approach, Factor 2 - Experience, Factor 3 - Past Performance, and Factor 4 - Safety; Phase Two: Factor 5 - Technical Solution, Factor 6 - Small Business Participation, and Factor 7 - Price. THE SOLICITATION WILL BE AVAILABLE IN ELECTRONIC FORMAT ONLY. The Phase One RFP will be posted on the System for Award Management (SAM) website under Contract Opportunities at https://sam.gov/content/opportunities on or about May 03, 2022. No hard copies will be provided. IT IS THE CONTRACTOR�S RESPONSIBILITY TO CHECK THE WEBSITE DAILY FOR ANY AMENDMENTS TO THIS SOLICITATION. Prospective offerors MUST register themselves on the website. Plan holders lists will not be faxed and will be available only at the website listed above. A sources sought notice (N62473-21-R-1238) for this procurement was posted on November 4, 2021, on the SAM website, and a market survey was conducted that included an assessment of relevant qualifications and capabilities of potentially qualified firms. As a result of the market research analysis, a determination was made to solicit this procurement on an unrestricted basis inviting full and open competition. The U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) Orange County/Inland Empire District Office and the NAVFAC SW Small Business Office concur with this decision.
