USACE Fort Worth District is seeking industry input for a standby-power project at Red River Army Depot in New Boston, Texas. - Opportunity: Sources-sought market research for project 520250; this is not an award notice. - Buyer: Department of the Army, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Fort Worth District. - Equipment: One 1,300 kW generator, two 500 kW generators, one 3,000 kVA step-up transformer, and 15 kV switchgear. No manufacturer, vendor, or part numbers are identified. - Scope: Progressive design-build engineering and pre-construction services, followed by final design and construction of backup generation facilities for Buildings 493 (Rubber Operations and associated compressor service) and M495 (fluidized bed). The Government is considering delivery under an Other Transaction Authority (OTA); Phase 2 construction would follow negotiation of a Guaranteed Maximum Price at approximately 65% design maturity. - Performance requirements: Provide 100% standby power and closed-transition operation with AEP/SWEPCO. Design life is at least 40 years and the facilities must meet applicable DoD requirements, including UFC 1-200-02, security, anti-terrorism, and cybersecurity standards, as well as energy-efficiency and building-systems requirements. - Schedule: Phase 1 award is targeted for about April 2027 (another attachment gives a March–April 2027 window). Construction is projected at approximately 540 calendar days after Notice to Proceed or execution of the Phase 2 construction modification. - Estimated project amount: Government construction target is $4,800,000–$5,127,000; the programmed amount is $5,700,000. - Response information: Responses are due November 13, 2026, at 4:00 p.m. CDT.

Description
MARKET RESEARCH ONLY
Title: Red River Army Depot Standby Generator Location: New Boston, Texas
Scope: This project will install a 1300 KW Generator and two 500kw generators, a 3000 KVA step-up transformer, and 15 kV switchgear to provide backup power to Building 493. The equipment will provide a Distributed Infrastructure (DI) system within RRAD. The proposed system will provide 100% standby power and will be designed for closed transition operation with AEP/SWEPCO for Standby Response. Provide complete engineering, procurement, and construction of back-up generation facilities for RRAD buildings 493 (Rubber Operations), M495 (fluidized bed), and the compressor service supporting building 493. Back-up generation is intended to counter outages which cause significant downtime and cost impacts to the operation. Facilities will be designed to a minimum life of 40 years in accordance with DoD's Unified Facilities Criteria (UFC 1-200-02) including energy efficiencies, building envelope and integrated building systems performance. Target Price Range (TPR): The Government has established The Government's Target Price for construction is between $4,800,000 and $5,127,000 (the strict CCL) with a programmed PA of $5,700,000. FY27 AWARD All Questions and Concerns will go through Projnet.
