Install Phase 2 of Energy Management and Control System (EMCS), Thule Air Base, Greenland

Install Phase 2 of Energy Management and Control System (EMCS) in 67 buildings and above ground utility systems that were not included in the WWCX 03-1004A. System will include sensors, actuators, and interface devices within buildings and limited fiber optic communications to interconnect buildings. System will be compatible with existing system installed by WWCX 03-1004A and with planned changes to central heating utility. Control action will be limited to facilities identified. System will control heating and lighting per occupancy schedules and limit the range of temperatures selectable by the user to prevent overheating areas or allowing areas to freeze. This will be a competitive, 2-Step Best Value Trade Off Solicitation. General Conditions at Thule Air Base: The location of Thule Air Base limits exterior work to the months of June through September, although work is sometimes possible in May and/or October. Additionally, Thule's location demands that all supplies/personnel must be shipped /transported in/out via air/sealift. Thule Air Base is not a commercial air/seaport and there is no other access. Shipping schedules are dictated by Defense contracts, and materials and labor are not available locally. The region is glaciated and the existing soil is generally permafrost, which exists from 1 to 6 feet below the surface to a measured depth of 1,600 feet. Winter temperatures average between 20 -30 degrees F below zero while average summer temperatures are between 40-50 degrees F above zero. One annual military cargo sealift departs from Norfolk, Virginia to Thule AB, on or about 1 July. There are two sealifts that leave from Copenhagen, Denmark to Thule AB, one in July & one in August. Airlifting any materials or equipment via military aircraft is very expensive and only normally allowed on an emergency-need basis. The project magnitude is between $1 million to $10 million.
