About this opportunity
The Department of the Navy Naval Facilities Engineering Command is seeking contractors for a Military Construction Project (MILCON) P1080 involving power reliability and water resiliency upgrades at Portsmouth Naval Shipyard in Kittery, Maine. The project will increase reliability, resiliency, and capacity of electric and water utility systems that support nuclear-powered submarines and nuclear support facilities through a design-bid-build approach. The on-base scope includes installation of new 35 kV switchgear, upgrades to 5 substations, new power management switchgear to DC battery systems, approximately 11,000 linear feet of AC duct banks, 5,000 linear feet of DC duct bank, and 1,000 linear feet of gas main. Contractors must demonstrate experience with large-scale water and/or power distribution projects exceeding $100 million completed within the past 10 years, with emphasis on complex urban or industrial area construction. The capabilities package submission deadline is July 28, 2025, at 2:00 PM Norfolk local time, with responses to the Project Labor Agreement Request for Information due July 25, 2025, at 2:00 PM local time.

No incumbent contractors are identified in the solicitation documents. The total project scope exceeds $500 million, though specific award values vary by document with references to $30-50 million for certain components. The project operates under NAICS code 237130 with a small business size standard of $45 million. The anticipated performance period is approximately 1,930 calendar days, reflecting the substantial scope and complexity of upgrading critical infrastructure supporting naval nuclear operations. The project will coordinate with off-base utility modifications by Central Maine Power and Kittery Water District to ensure comprehensive infrastructure improvements.
Notice text
The P1080 project includes the following major components: The Power reliability and water resiliency project provides increased reliability, resiliency, and capacity to the existing electric and water utility systems primarily responsible for the protection of nuclear-powered submarines and nuclear support facilities at PNSY. In order to support this on-base effort, there are two off-base private utility projects which are currently in design phase and will be needed to ultimately connect with the on-base work.
Off-Base Electrical: Provides modifications to the commercial power supply provided by Central Maine Power (CMP) to PNSY.
Off-Base Water: Provides modifications to the commercial water utility supply provided Kittery Water District (KWD) to PNSY.
THIS PROJECT is for the On-Base work. The On-Base project on PNSY provides upgrades and modifications to shipyard power distribution, energy storage, and onsite generation to increase capacity, capability, and resiliency of the microgrid. The scope of this project includes:
- New 35 kV Switchgear
- Upgrades to 5 Substations
- New power management
- Switchgear to DC battery
- ~ 11K LF AC Duct banks
- ~ 5K LF DC Duct Bank
- ~1K LF Gas Main
