Notice of Intent to Award Sole Source - ACQUISITION UTILITY OPERATIONS AND MAINTENANCE SERVICES

The Department of Energy's Savannah River Site in Aiken, South Carolina has published a Notice of Intent to award a sole source contract modification to Dominion Energy South Carolina (DESC). This notice, posted on November 4, 2025, announces the government's intention to extend an existing GSA contract (No. GS-00P-06-BSD-0379, Task Order DE-DT0005213) rather than pursue competitive bidding. The modification is being executed under the statutory authority of 41 USC 3304(a)(1), implemented through Federal Acquisition Regulation 6.302-1, which permits sole source awards when only one responsible source can satisfy agency requirements. DESC currently serves as the sole provider of utilities, operations, equipment, and maintenance services at the Savannah River Site. This Notice of Intent is not a solicitation and does not invite unsolicited quotations from competing firms.

The primary objective of this contract extension is to ensure continuity of electrical services at the Savannah River Site through an extension of the ordering period for up to five months. Interested parties who believe the planned sole source modification would not be advantageous to the government have 15 calendar days from the November 4, 2025 posting date to submit clear and compelling evidence to the Contracting Officer, Marie Garvin (Marie.Garvin@srs.gov), supporting their position. This notice is limited to industry notification only, and no award will be made based on responses to this notice. Only existing contractors or parties with documented concerns regarding the sole source justification are eligible to respond. The Department of Energy will not be responsible for any costs incurred by parties responding to this notice.
