Overview/Scope The Power and Electrical Management Program is (PEMP) is an organization under the auspices of the Facilities Management Division within the Department of State’s Bureau of Overseas Building Operation Bureau (OBO). One such program function under PEMP provides technical and financial support for generators and related accessories which are provided to residences occupied by full-time Foreign Service Officers stationed at Embassy locations as well as other agency residences assigned to Embassy locations around the world. This process is governed by organizational policies which designates PEMP as the responsible Department of State (DOS) organization for approving the sizing all generators while also providing Post with the necessary assistance and guidance for the procurement and installation of the generators. OBO/CFSM/FAC/PS has centralized the procurement of residential generators through a process which pre-qualifies several vendors which have the ability to demonstrate adequate conformance to a standard product specification while also having the ability to support delivery and maintenance on a global scale. This has been accomplished through the establishment of an IDIQ contract which allows several pre-qualified vendors to provide proposals for the manufacture, shipping and warranty support of generators, automatic transfer switches and related accessories ranging in size from 20 KVA to approximately 1000 KVA. Generators will need to meet the voltage and frequency spectrum for worldwide use and as defined in the equipment specification in Attachment-A (Packaged Generator Specifications). Transfer switches will generally be 4-pole ranging in size from 100 Amp to 1600 Amp and as further defined in the equipment specifications in Attachment-B (Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS) Specifications). In addition PEMP has a requirement where vendors need to support government owned information systems by providing a web service that permits the tracking of specific equipment data and expected delivery dates. OBO/CFSM/FAC/PS anticipates a new solicitation for this requirement within the next six months and is seeking information from organizations having interests and capabilities in the manufacture and delivery of this equipment.
