AI Contract Overview
The Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command (NAVFAC) ROICC Annapolis intends to award a sole source firm-fixed-price contract to Siemens for the procurement, delivery, and installation of Desigo programmable building controllers to replace obsolete or failing units at Naval Support Activity Annapolis, Maryland. The replacement systems must natively integrate with the existing Siemens Desigo front-end architecture, software, and proprietary communication protocols without requiring third-party middleware or translation devices, ensuring full interoperability and continuity of the Facility Related Control Systems (FRCS) network. This sole source action is justified under FAR 6.302-1 because non-Siemens equipment would necessitate a complete overhaul of the existing software infrastructure, user interfaces, and communication layers, resulting in prohibitive costs and unacceptable delays in maintaining critical facility control and energy management functions. The contract is not open to competitive bidding, but any responsible party may submit a capability statement no later than 12:00 PM local time on May 22, 2026, to Megan L. May at the designated Navy email address, demonstrating their product’s ability to integrate seamlessly with the current Siemens system without voiding warranties or requiring additional licensing. The primary place of performance is NSA Annapolis, including the Lejeune Utility Plant and all buildings housing the controllers. The contract will be administered through Wide Area WorkFlow (WAWF) for invoicing, and compliance with federal regulations including 49 CFR 173 and 178 for packaging, 40 CFR 262.31 for hazardous waste labeling, and applicable ASTM, ASHRAE, and NFPA standards is required. Submittals must include manufacturer data, warranties, test reports, and final release forms, with all documentation adhering to Government-issued forms such as SD-06, SD-07, and SD-11. Key personnel including a qualified Project Superintendent, QC Manager, and independent Special Inspector must be designated and pre-approved, with strict separation of duties to prevent organizational conflicts of interest. All salvage materials remain Government property, and modifications to the quality control plan or personnel require ten-day written notice and prior Government approval. The contract value and specific delivery schedule are not provided, but performance must align with critical facility operational needs and environmental efficiency goals, including energy conservation and indoor environmental quality standards.

Full Description
The Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command (NAVFAC) ROICC ANNAPOLIS, MD intends to award a firm-fixed-price sole source contract for the purchase and replacement of Siemens Desigo Facility Related Control Systems (FRCS) programmable building controllers at Naval Support Activity (NSA) Annapolis, MD.
2. DESCRIPTION OF REQUIREMENT
The Government requires the procurement, delivery, and installation/replacement of commercial programmable building controllers to support the Facility Related Control Systems (FRCS) at NSA Annapolis. The required equipment is the Siemens Desigo product line.
The scope of work includes the removal of obsolete or failing controllers and the integration of new Siemens Desigo programmable building controllers into the existing installation-wide FRCS network. The new hardware must natively communicate and integrate with the existing Siemens front-end architecture, software, and proprietary communication protocols currently deployed at NSA Annapolis without the need for third-party middleware or translation devices.
3. STATUTORY AUTHORITY & JUSTIFICATION
This action will be conducted under the authority of FAR 6.302-1, Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements.
The existing FRCS infrastructure at NSA Annapolis is built upon proprietary Siemens architecture. Utilizing non-Siemens equipment would require a complete replacement of the existing front-end software, graphical user interfaces, and communication network. Doing so would result in a substantial duplication of cost to the Government that is not expected to be recovered through competition, as well as unacceptable delays in fulfilling the installation's critical facility control and energy management requirements. Therefore, Siemens is the only source capable of providing equipment that meets the Government's interoperability and compatibility requirements.
4. NOTICE TO INTERESTED PARTIES
This Notice of Intent is NOT a request for competitive proposals or quotes. A solicitation document will not be issued and proposals will not be requested.
However, any responsible source that believes it can meet the requirements may submit a capability statement, proposal, or quotation, which shall be considered by the agency. The capability statement must provide clear and convincing evidence that the vendor's product can natively integrate with the existing proprietary Siemens Desigo front-end system at NSA Annapolis without additional hardware, software licensing, or voiding existing warranties.
Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement in the future. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed action based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government.
5. SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS
All responses to this notice must be submitted via email to Megan May, Contract Specialist at megan.l.may3.civ@us.navy.mil no later than 12:00PM Local Time on 22 May 2026. Telephone inquiries will not be accepted.
