InSynergy Engineering Inc. of Honolulu has been awarded a $30 million “firm-fixed-price, indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contract for architect-engineer services for utility system studies.”
According to an Aug. 3 release from the U.S. Department of War, work will be performed at various locations including but not limited to Guam, 10%; Hawaii, 10%; Japan, 50%; the U.S. mainland, 10%; and other locations, 20%, including Diego Garcia, the Philippines, Australia, and Singapore.
Work is expected to be completed by August 2031. The contract was competitively procured via the sam.gov website with three offers received. Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command Pacific made the award.
InSynergy has a Guam office and according to Journal files was awarded $20 million for a similar contract in 2020 for “architectural and engineering utility systems studies” at various Navy, Marine Corps, Air Force, and other government facilities in Guam, Diego Garcia, Hawaii, Japan, and the northwestern and southwestern states.
Tutor Perini Corp. was awarded a task order valued at about $651.8 million in June through NAVFAC Pacific’s Facilities and Infrastructure Multiple Award Construction contract (or MAC contract )by the Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command Pacific to “harden critical feeders on Naval Base Guam,” according to the group.
Tutor Perini and its subsidiary Black Construction Corp. will “replace existing primary and secondary overhead electrical distribution feeders with new underground circuit conductors within concrete-encased duct banks to improve electrical system resiliency and reliability for facilities.”
Design was due to begin in August with construction to begin in April 2027. “Substantial completion is anticipated in June 2031,” Tutor Perini said.
John Benavente, general manager of the Guam Power Authority, in a July 29 presentation to the Guam Chamber of Commerce membership, showed the audience priority transmission projects proposed for grant funding. These include underground distribution lines to critical infrastructure such as water and wastewater systems, communication, medical facilities and high density areas. GPA is pursuing issuance of $300 million in bonds, according to Benavente’s presentation. mbj
