Electric power supply for various Federal Accounts in Pennsylvania and behind PJM

The General Services Administration is requesting proposals from electric generation suppliers to provide electric power supply to Federal accounts in Pennsylvania and possibly other areas in PJM. The electric requirements are behind PECO, Duquesne Light, Penelec, West Penn and MetEd. The Government has divided its electric requirement into three (3) pricing groups. All pricing groups are indexed pricing groups with the potential for block purchase. Pricing groups are a PECO Group; a Duquesne Light/West Penn Group; and a Penelec/MedEd Group. Each group will have a term of five (5) years. The successful offeror(s) will supply all electricity components for the respective pricing groups. Deliveries will begin with the January 2014 meter read date for all accounts unless otherwise specified. A six (6) month extension period is included in the contract. The approximate total annual electric requirement is 146,000 MWhs for the PECO Group; 100,000 MWhs for the Duquesne Light/West Penn Group; and 48,000 MWhs for the Penelec/MetEd Group. The index adder price (i.e. Supply Service Fee) offered will apply to all accounts in the solicitation and that price will remain fixed for the contract term. Capacity and transmission will be treated as pass-through pricing items. This procurement is being conducted on an unrestricted basis. The procurement method will be a competitive negotiated Request for Proposal (RFP) conducted in accordance with Part 12 (Commercial Item) of the FAR. This announcement constitutes the presolicitation notice and the synopsis. The Government intends to award a contract(s) to the offeror that offers the lowest evaluated price for each pricing group and meets the solicitation's technical requirements. Supplier technical responses to the solicitation are due no later than 2:00 p.m. on October 4, 2013 via email to the Contracting Officer (see solicitation instructions). Pricing will be submitted in accordance with the solicitation on October 10, 2013 via email to the contracting officer (see solicitation instructions).
