RECOVERY ACTION. FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY. DUNS 007113228. The modification addresses the following work: These funds are to support independent and merit reviewers for the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) 48C Tax Credit Applications. Reviews will be conducted for evaluating and selecting applications in response to IRS Notice 2009-72 titled “Qualifying Advanced Energy Project Credit”. The action is other than fixed price because work assigned to the Sandia Corporation through the issuance of Work Authorizations (WAs) is pursuant to the terms and conditions of their prime management and operating contract awarded under as a cost reimbursement type contract due to the uncertainties in contract performance. Cost cannot be estimated with sufficient accuracy to use any type of fixed price contract as the exact nature and duration of the work is uncertain. The use of a separate fixed price award to Sandia Corporation for the WA is inappropriate because this is issued under an existing cost reimbursable contract. Sandia was selected by the Department of Energy (DOE) to participate in this ARRA work due to the expertise at Sandia National Laboratories in the subject matter. The funds will ensure the best selection of grantees proposing the best approach in support of new, expanded or re-equipped domestic manufacturing facilities with a goal of growing the domestic manufacturing industrial base with clean energy, sustainable economic growth, job creation, and reduced generation of greenhouse emissions. The work falls within the Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy which is covered by the prime contract Statement of Work, paragraph 3.3, entitled “Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy” that states: “The Contractor shall provide research, design and manufacturing capabilities for solar electric technologies (solar thermal and photovoltaic), wind energy, geothermal energy systems, industrial and transportation applications, fossil energy programs, electric power systems, hydrogen power technologies and battery systems for utilities and transportation.” NOTE: This action is awarded under prime contract modification no. A361 that recognizes Work Authorization no. 100254-20758-10 issued under Management and Operating Contract number DE-AC04-94AL85000. This action is funded by Recovery Act dollars.
