This notice serves to meet regulatory disclosure requirements, and interested parties are invited to submit capability statements.
Scope of Work
The requirement is for fully managed Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) encompassing remote monitoring, maintenance, reporting, and lifecycle management.

Services cover 44 properties and include tracking city power voltage, generator voltage/amperage, battery health, engine temperature, transfer switch statuses, fuel levels, and water tank levels. The contractor is responsible for all management, labor, software licenses, local mobile data communication, preventive/corrective maintenance, technical support, and the replacement of outdated monitoring hardware with new Remote Terminal Units (RTUs). The monitoring software must allow remote alarm reset and provide automated performance reports.
Contract Details

- Estimated Value: Approximately $172,920.00 for the entire period of performance (including options), with an estimated annual cost of $34,584.
- Set-Aside: This is a Notice of Intent to Sole Source, justified under FAR 6.302-1 (only one responsible source) and DOSAR 605.202-70 (foreign acquisition exception). The intended awardee is Efficiencie Solutions for Business.
- Response Due: June 26, 2026, 3:00 PM Z.
- Published: June 11, 2026.
Evaluation
This is a justification for a sole-source award, not a solicitation. However, interested parties who believe they can provide the required services are invited to submit a capability statement, proposal, or quotation for consideration by the Department. These submissions will be evaluated to determine if other sources can meet the agency's requirements.
Additional Notes
Efficiencie Solutions for Business is the current contractor and has successfully installed and commissioned the existing system. Market research indicates they are the only contractor currently operating on-site with demonstrated satisfactory performance and the capability to meet requirements. Transitioning to a new system would incur significant training, transition, and installation costs and potentially disrupt service. The government intends to pursue full and open competition for future requirements.
