J&A Tracking Number 26-0019
Justification for Other than Full and Open Competition
Utility Energy Service Contract SP0604-26-R-0408

1. Summary/Introduction:

The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Energy, a Major Subordinate Command of DLA, is procuring a Utility Energy Service Contract (UESC) on behalf of the United States Air Force (USAF) Warner Robins Air Logistics Complex (ALC) located on Robins Air Force Base (AFB), Georgia. A UESC is an energy performance contract authorized under 42 USC § 8256 that allows federal and DOD contracting activity or agency to contract directly with a Utility company. Warner Robins ALC wants to implement an energy performance project using a UESC.
This Justification and Approval (J&A) is intended to secure approval for an other than full and open competition procurement with Georgia Power Company (GPC). DLA Energy plans to engage GPC in solicitation SP0604-26-R-0408 and intends to award a Firm Fixed Price (FFP) task order (TO) against GPC’s General Services Administration Areawide Public Utility Contract (GWAC) number 47PA04-25D-0026. The awarded TO will implement the Energy Conservation Measures (ECMs) outlined in two completed Investment Grade Audits (IGA) at Warner Robins ALC. DLA Energy undertakes this UESC procurement pursuant to DFARs 241.103(1)(ii) authorizing contracting officers to enter into an energy savings contract under 10 USC § 2913 for a period not to exceed 25 years. The estimated value of the resultant contract is $60.5 million.
This action is exempt from full and open competition under the authority of 10 U.S.C. § 3204(a)(1) as implemented by FAR 6.103-1 (Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services will Satisfy Agency Requirements), and in conjunction with 42 U.S.C. § 8256 and in 10 U.S.C. § 2913. These authorities allow DLA Energy to acquire energy savings contracts from a single responsible source when no other supplies or services will satisfy the agency’s need. In this case, the statutory authority is executed through an UESC.
2. Nature and/or description of the action being approved (FAR 6.104-1(a)(2)): Warner Robins ALC seeks to implement ECMs identified in two completed IGAs as a UESC project at Warner Robins ALC. This action serves to award an FFP TO against GPC’s GWAC, number 47PA04-25-D-0026. The two IGAs were previously completed by GPC and delivered to Air Force Civil Engineer Center (AFCEC)/Warner Robins ALC. GPC is a Utility company servicing Robins Air Force
