The U.S. Department of Commerce (DOC) intends to negotiate a sole-source contract with Potomac Electric Power Company (PEPCO) for electrical power services at its facility located at 209 Perry Parkway, Suite 5, Gaithersburg, MD. The procurement will involve a 12-month base period with four optional 12-month extensions, utilizing the GSA Areawide Public Utility Contract. This acquisition is justified under the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) as only one source is capable of providing the required specialized services at the necessary quality level. Interested parties have six days from the publication of this notice to submit responses that may challenge the sole-source determination; otherwise, the task order will be awarded to PEPCO.
