HSQ Tech maintains and controls the Energy Management Control System at Schriever SFB that has computer, firmware, software, and sensors in 19 of the buildings. This technology is proprietary to HSQ and HSQ does not allow external organizations to operate on their system. This means HSQ is the only company that can do the scope of work in this requirement. An RFI was posted on SAM.gov (numbered FA255026Q5487) on 14 July 2026 for three days with the intention of gathering information on if the HSQ EMCS systems were truly proprietary and required a restriction of competition to HSQ. There were no responses to the RFI, indictaing there were no companies that could dispute the proprietary claim. The contracting Officer reached out to HSQ to confirm that the HSQ EMCS system was still proprietary, as the last contract for these services was awarded in 2021. HSQ replied and confirmed that these services are still limited to only HSQ. ANTICIPATED SOLICITATION ISSUANCE DATE: On or about 31 Aug 2026.
