The Department of Energy, through its National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL), intends to award a sole source contract to the Broughton Volunteer Fire Department (BVFD) for fire protection services at the NETL site in Pittsburgh, PA. The contract will cover the provision of fire protection services and associated equipment for the period from January 1, 2026, to December 31, 2026, with four additional one-year option periods, totaling a potential duration of five years. This procurement is deemed sole source due to BVFD's proximity to the NETL site, which ensures rapid response times and effective firefighting capabilities, with no known alternative sources available. Interested parties who believe they can meet the requirements must submit their capabilities in writing to the Contract Specialist, Arturo Manantan, at arturo.manantan@netl.doe.gov by 3:00 PM ET on December 24, 2025.
