The Government herby submits a notice of intent to award a sole source firm fixed-price task order against GSA Area-Wide contract number 47PA0418G0007. The anticipated award will be for Electrical Upgrades needed at the Humphrey's Engineer Center (HEC). These electrical upgrades will require clearing of trees on the HEC along Telegraph Road, and installing a new Utility 3 Phase Terminal to Primary Meter Cabinet running from the high voltage overhead electrical line feed across from Telegraph Road to the HEC by Dominion Power at the HEC facilities in Alexandria, VA. The market research conducted by HECSA personnel indicates that of the utilities in the state of Virginia which provide such utility services (i.e. electrical upgrades), only Dominion Power provides such services in this particular locale. This requirement falls within GSA Area-Wide Contract 47PA0418G0007 and will be awarded IAW FAR 41.204, GSA Area-Wide Contracts. Dominion Energy is the only vendor on the GSA Area-Wide contract in this area for electrical services. Additionally, Dominion Energy own the electrical utilities. Utilizing another contractor would greatly increase the overall cost and risk to the project. Any other vendor would still need Dominion Energy to tie in the electrical and would have to build to Dominion’s specifications. If the installation did not meet Dominion’s specifications the work would have to be redone delaying the project further. The determination not to compete this proposed contract action is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered for the purposes of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. The Government will not be responsible for any costs incurred by responding to this notice. Again, no source other than Dominion Energy has been identified for this requirement at this location. This is NOT a request for quotes or proposals. This requirement falls within GSA Area-Wide Contract 47PA0418G0007 and will be awarded IAW FAR 41.204, GSA Area-Wide Contracts. This action will be single-sourced IAW FAR Part 13.106-1(b)(1) - Soliciting from a single source, for purchases not exceeding the Simplified Acquisition Threshold.
