DESCRIPTION: The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Louisville District is issuing a request for proposal for a design-build project to realize energy savings by modifying the ventilation air flow to engine Test Cells 1-8 at Building 212 at the Detroit Arsenal located in Warren, Michigan. Air flow through the steam coils in Test Cells 1-8 will be reduced by approximately 50% by installing remotely operated pneumatic actuators on the existing ventilation exhaust fan discharge dampers. A steam meter will be installed to measure energy usage. Existing fans, motors, and starters will be retained leading to minimal impact on system operation. Additional energy savings and renewable energy will be obtained by adding an energy storage solution to capture regenerative power generated during the operation of these test cells. The project will create energy savings by reducing use of load banks, capturing and reusing regenerative power to peak shave. Contract duration is 439 calendar days. A pre-proposal site visit will be held. Meeting and site visit details will be provided in the solicitation. TYPE OF CONTRACT AND NAICS: This RFP will be for one (1) Firm-Fixed-Price (FFP) contract. The North American Industrial Classification System Code (NAICS) for this effort is 237130 Power and Communication Line and Related Structures Construction. TYPE OF SET-ASIDE: This is an unrestricted procurement. CONSTRUCTION MAGNITUDE: The magnitude of this construction project is anticipated to be between $1,000,000 and $5,000,000, in accordance with FAR 36.204. SELECTION PROCESS: This is a request for proposal procurement. The proposals will be evaluated based on best value.
