Enterprise Building Control System Sources Sought Notice

The Department of the Interior's Interior Business Center is seeking vendors to provide an Enterprise Building Control System (EBCS) for the U.S. Army Reserve Installation Management Directorate (ARIMD). The procurement involves implementing standardized building control systems using Tridium Niagara Framework architecture across multiple Army Reserve facilities nationwide. Contractors must demonstrate capabilities in project management, system design, hardware/software procurement, system integration, cybersecurity updates, and training. Interested vendors are required to submit 10-page capability statements via email to Contracting Officer Jonathan Chisholm by March 10, 2025, detailing their organizational qualifications, past federal performance, and business size classification. The government will use these submissions to determine the appropriate acquisition strategy, which could include small business set-aside, full and open competition, or potential sole-source award.

The pre-solicitation notice currently indicates no specific set-aside designation, with potential for small business consideration based on market research responses. The base contract period spans from May 1, 2025 to April 30, 2026, with four additional one-year option periods possible through April 30, 2030. Approximately 115 facilities are targeted in the base year, with subsequent years covering 35-45 additional facilities across roughly 40 states, including Guam, Puerto Rico, and American Samoa. Pacific Northwest National Laboratory will serve as a technical consultant, and work will be released through sequential Work Packages with specific performance requirements and not-to-exceed cost parameters. The total scope includes remote monitoring and control systems for Army Reserve facilities, involving site readiness assessments, integration controller installations, graphic development, and comprehensive system implementations.
