The Department of the Army Corps of Engineers Engineering Support Center Huntsville is conducting a sources sought market research to identify qualified contractors for technical support services for the Army Utilities Program (AUP) and Army Energy Program. The procurement seeks engineering services under NAICS code 541330, with a small business size standard of $25.5 Million. Contractors will be required to provide comprehensive technical assistance including policy development, program management, utility system evaluations, technical analyses for infrastructure upgrades, and support for Utility Privatization (UP), Energy Savings Performance Contracts (ESPC), and Utility Energy Service Contracts (UESC). The evaluation will focus on firms' demonstrated experience in six key areas: technical policy assistance, utility system evaluations, technical analyses, programmatic support, cloud service security compliance, and business case analysis for utility ownership alternatives.

This sources sought notice is not a set-aside and is open to both small and large businesses, with the government potentially considering a small business set-aside based on market research responses. The contract is structured for a one-year base period with four one-year option periods, indicating a potential five-year total contract duration. Contractors must be registered in the System of Award Management (SAM) with no exclusions and will be required to have personnel with secret security clearance. While specific award values are not disclosed, the procurement will support technical support services across multiple Army locations, including the Pentagon. The government will not reimburse respondents for preparation costs, and responses are not considered offers that can form a binding contract. Interested firms must submit electronically compatible Microsoft Word documents and are prohibited from submitting hard copies or facsimile submissions.
