About this opportunity
Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command (NAVFAC) Northwest is conducting market research through a Sources Sought notice to identify vendors capable of supplying Distech EC-Line and Honeywell Optimizer line building automation controllers and associated software for multiple projects within the NAVFAC Northwest region, with responses due May 4, 2026. This is a brand-name procurement; competition will be limited to the named manufacturers' product lines under a Class Justification and Approval effective April 20, 2026, through April 19, 2031.
The requirement supports the Control System Platform Enclave (CSPE), an area-wide networked Direct Digital Control system linking multiple Navy installations—NAVBASE Kitsap, NAS Whidbey Island, NAVSTA Everett, and CNI NAVMAG Indian Island. The CSPE infrastructure uses Tridium Niagara Utility Monitoring and Control System (UMCS) front end and Niagara Java Application Control Engine (JACE) enabled supervisory controllers. Brand-name standardization on Distech and Honeywell equipment preserves operational integrity, prevents costly system modifications, ensures cybersecurity compliance, and maintains Authority to Operate (ATO) status.
The procurement does not restrict installation, commissioning, testing, maintenance, or operational services to the named manufacturers; multiple sources provide these services. Interested vendors must submit company information per the provided template and technical documentation demonstrating three installed systems using the specified controllers and software through a Tridium JACE 8000 or 9000 gateway. Programmable building controllers represent approximately 20 percent of total controls installation costs. The estimated total value through April 2031 is not disclosed.
