Over the next five (5) years, the Owner will be undertaking a capital renewal program to replace controls infrastructure at each of its facilities. The Owner is seeking a Contractor to provide, install, service, and maintain building automation systems for all projects completed as part of this infrastructure renewal program. The selected Contractor will be awarded two contracts.

Under the contract, the Contractor shall provide services with open-book pricing at a fixed margin, markup, and/or discount (also known as cost-plus pricing). Bidding contractors shall base their discounts and pricing on GSA guidelines. Control components shall be fully installed by the contractor, using their own subcontractor should a subcontractor be needed (mechanical, electrical, fire protection, sheet metal, etc.) and the pricing of said component should reflect that. The second contract will be a five (5) year service contract to support any work performed under the first contract. The service contract should include, at minimum, responsive remote and on-site support, software upgrades, and a well-defined preventative maintenance scope. Pricing may be either fixed or dependent on the equipment installed under the contract above.
