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

The Department of Energy’s Savannah River Operations Office intends to award a sole source modification to Dominion Energy South Carolina (DESC) under an existing General Services Administration (GSA) contract (GS-00P-06-BSD-0379) and task order DE-DT0005213. This modification will extend the current period of performance by up to five months to ensure uninterrupted utility operations, maintenance, and electrical services at the Savannah River Site in Aiken, South Carolina. The sole source justification is based on DESC being the only responsible source capable of meeting the agency’s requirements, as authorized by FAR 6.302-1, which allows for the exclusion of competition when no other supplies or services will satisfy the agency’s needs. The extension supports operational continuity of essential electrical infrastructure. This Notice of Intent, posted on November 4, 2025, is a formal announcement rather than a solicitation; no competitive proposals are being sought. Interested industry parties have 15 calendar days to submit comments or challenges to the sole source determination to the Contracting Officer, Marie Garvin, via email. The contract is performance-based with the place of performance and acceptance located at the Savannah River Site. Essential contract details such as pricing, inspection standards, special contract clauses, and delivery terms are not included in this notice. The procurement relies on an existing GSA schedule contract and is presumed to be firm fixed price in nature, though no formal solicitation or bids are being requested. No socioeconomic designations, certifications, or separate evaluation criteria apply due to the non-competitive nature of this procurement action.
