About this opportunity
The Department of Energy's Western Area Power Administration (WAPA) issued a sole-source justification notice on December 30, 2025, to renew its subscription for software services from MCG Energy Solutions LLC under GSA Federal Supply Schedule contract GS-35F-0332T, awarded on December 23, 2025. The software services encompass multiple integrated modules supporting WAPA's operations across the Colorado River Storage Project (CRSP) and Upper Great Plains (UGP) regions, including the Integrated Asset Manager (IAM) for bid capture and market settlements, the Energy Accounting System (EAS), the Hosted Data Service (HDS), and various communication and security protocol modules. WAPA justified the sole-source procurement based on MCG's unique position as the only vendor capable of providing software meeting its specific operational requirements, given over 20 years of integrated system use and the proprietary nature of the software. The justification emphasized that switching to an alternative vendor would incur substantial costs and operational risks, estimated between $13.8 million and $17.3 million, making continuation with MCG the most cost-effective approach while WAPA conducts internal assessments and industry standard investigations to explore potential competitive alternatives in the future. Although the specific contract renewal amount was not disclosed in publicly available documents, the projected switching costs indicate the significant financial commitment associated with WAPA's continued reliance on MCG's integrated software platform.
