UPS Upgrade Bldg 4

Contract Opportunity

Update 1 to questions answered:

1. The GAO states the following when BAA applies:

“(1) the procurement must be intended for public use within the United States; and (2) the items to be procured or the materials from which they are manufactured must be present in the United States in sufficient and reasonably available commercial quantities of a satisfactory quality. The provisions of the act may be waived if the head of the procuring agency determines the act to be inconsistent with the public interest or the cost of acquiring the domestic product is unreasonable.”

If these do not apply to our case, then we can go open market.

2. We will use the existing transformers unless they determine there is a need to have the supply power to the unit stepped down.

3. We will support any day of the week. Also, we would like to have a week, or 2 weeks’ notice prior to any requested shutdowns.
