This Special Notice announces the Department of the Interior's intent to sole source an electrical services contract to Chugach Electric Association, Inc. The contract will provide electricity and associated utility maintenance for three buildings occupied by the Department of the Interior Office of Aviation Services in Anchorage, Alaska.

The Notice provides interested parties five calendar days from publication to submit capability statements for consideration to determine whether to conduct a competitive procurement. The contract will be a firm-fixed-price acquisition awarded under FAR Part 12 for commercial items and Part 13 for simplified acquisition procedures. Only Chugach Electric Association, Inc. is eligible for this sole source award due to being the incumbent utility provider for the three buildings. Submitted capability statements will be reviewed solely to assess the potential for competition prior to finalizing the sole source selection.
