Sole source Sacramental Peak Observatory electrical power services

The National Science Foundation (NSF) is conducting market research to determine if any sources other than Otero County Electric Cooperative, Inc. can provide electrical utility services to the Sacramento Peak Observatory in New Mexico. The observatory is a federally owned scientific research facility that requires uninterrupted electrical power to support its operations. The NSF is seeking capability statements from interested parties that can demonstrate their ability to provide electrical utility services through the existing infrastructure without substantial duplication of cost or unacceptable delays. • The capability statement should include information demonstrating responsibility in accordance with FAR Part 9. • The statement should provide technical evidence demonstrating the capability to provide uninterrupted electrical utility services. • The statement should include past performance information on similar electrical utility service requirements in remote locations. • The statement should include the contractor's socioeconomic status.
