About this opportunity
The Federal Bureau of Investigation's Finance and Facilities Division issued a notice of intent on June 2, 2026 to sole-source a five-year Building Automation System maintenance and support contract to Albireo Energy, with responses due by 11:00 AM ET on June 17, 2026. This is not a request for proposals; any party wishing to challenge the sole-source determination must submit clear and convincing evidence that competition would be advantageous to the Government.
The FBI will award a Firm Fixed Price contract covering comprehensive maintenance of the Alerton Building Automation System at the J. Edgar Hoover Building in Washington, D.C., beginning August 1, 2026. The base period runs one year with four optional one-year renewals through July 31, 2031. Services include parts, labor, 24/7 technical support, emergency onsite response, software maintenance, data protection, preventive and corrective maintenance, hardware replacement, network maintenance, system updates, and operator training.
The sole-source justification rests on the proprietary nature of the Alerton system, with software, diagnostic tools, firmware updates, and technical documentation available exclusively from Alerton and authorized representatives. Albireo Energy is the exclusive authorized Alerton service provider for the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area and the only contractor meeting technical and security requirements. Personnel must hold Top Secret clearance and DD-254 eligibility. Market research conducted May 13, 2026 identified no alternative vendors capable of meeting requirements, as other Alerton-authorized providers cannot cross assigned territorial boundaries.
Submit inquiries or responses to Candice Kesselman (ckesselman@fbi.gov) or Jamie Compton (jlmelzer@fbi.gov). The J&A was updated June 4, 2026.
