Las Vegas-based Department of Energy subcontractor Longenecker & Associates announced this week that retired Jacobs nuclear executive, Terry Hagen, has joined the Longenecker advisory board. Hagen retired effective in June 2019 chief operating officer and president for Jacobs Aerospace, Technology, and Nuclear group.
Hagen led Jacobs’ work for the DOE, the Department of Defense, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration as well as the U.S. intelligence community, Longenecker said in the press release.
“We are honored to have an executive of Terry’s caliber join our advisory board,” Longenecker & Associates CEO Bonnie Longenecker said in the press release. Founded in 1989, Longenecker provides quality assurance and management support to DOE contractors at sites such as Hanford in Washington state, the Y-12 National Security Complex in Tennessee and the Savannah River Site in South Carolina.
About 30 people participated in a virtual pre-proposal conference Oct. 28 on the Department of Energy’s planned new infrastructure services contract at the Portsmouth Site in Ohio.
That is according to a registration list published recently by the DOE’s Environmental Management Consolidated Business Center for the event. The business center also posted slides and a video presentation on the solicitation.
The Department of Energy issued the final request for proposals (RFP) on Oct. 13 for a follow-up contract to replace the roughly five-year, $117-million agreement held by Portsmouth Mission Alliance, a team comprising North Wind Group and Swift and Staley.
The incumbent agreement is scheduled to expire in February. Bids on the new contract are due Dec. 1.
In addition to the two incumbents, other familiar firm names included Akima, Global Energy & Technology, Leidos, Navarro and Spectra Tech,
The winning contractor will act as a provider of landlord services to what is basically “a self-contained city” of more than 3,000 acres, according to a DOE’s RFP lead Tracey Duncan said during the briefing. The contract, which has a 60-day transition period, combines fixed prices for some services plus special task orders for others.
Services will include everything from pest control, safeguards and security, recordkeeping, to maintenance of roads, parking lots, and buildings.
