About this opportunity

Ames National Laboratory, operated by Iowa State University under a U.S. Department of Energy contract, is seeking an Annual UPS Service/Maintenance Agreement for its uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems. The solicitation, identified as RFP A25-0184, requires a comprehensive maintenance contract covering 24/7 emergency response and semi-annual preventative maintenance for 19 UPS units across multiple laboratory locations. The procurement will use a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) evaluation method, with proposals judged on technical acceptability, safety documentation approval, and reference quality. Key procurement milestones include a question submission deadline of 4/15/2025 and a proposal due date of 4/22/2025 at 4:00 PM Central Time, with an anticipated purchase order award date of 4/30/2025. Offerors must meet strict safety standards, including compliance with NFPA 70E electrical safety requirements and Ames Laboratory's specific security protocols.

The solicitation is set aside for small businesses, with a NAICS Code 811210 and small business size standard of $34,000,000. The contract is structured as a one-year agreement with three optional renewal years, covering UPS units ranging from 1.3 kVA to 80 kVA across various laboratory locations in Ames, Iowa. Contractors must provide factory-trained and certified field engineers capable of performing detailed inspections, including downloading UPS logs, checking alarm histories, measuring battery voltages, and verifying system operations. The maintenance will involve two annual on-site visits: a minor inspection in early spring and a major maintenance session in late fall. While specific budget details are not explicitly stated, the contract will be awarded as a firm fixed-price agreement, with potential options for increased quantity and short-term extensions. Successful bidders must demonstrate comprehensive safety practices, provide detailed documentation, and comply with specific insurance and operational requirements outlined in the solicitation documents.
