Quick Summary
The Naval Supply Systems Command (NAVSUP), Fleet Logistics Center Jacksonville (FLCJ) intends to issue a sole source award for the procurement of SEPCO Solar Lights to SOLAR ELECTRIC POWERCOMPANY. This procurement aims to cost-effectively repurpose existing street light poles with required solar lighting over critical crosswalks in Pensacola, FL. The intent is based on the need for compatibility with existing SEPCO infrastructure. Responses from eligible sources are due by May 15, 2026.
Scope of Requirement
The requirement is for SEPCO Solar Lights to ensure compatibility with the existing solar lighting infrastructure installed in 2011, which utilizes SEPCO-manufactured equipment. Using alternative manufacturers would necessitate additional costs for on-site engineering designs, compatibility testing, and could lead to warranty issues, technical risks, and operational problems due to mixing technologies. The goal is to avoid full system replacement by repairing non-functional components with fully compatible SEPCO parts.
