1 INTRODUCTION

The purpose of this request for proposals (RFP) is to solicit proposals from Vendors for SCADA Integration for the city of Commerce’s Wastewater Treatment System. It is the intent of Commerce to select a vendor that will be used in the design and implementation of SCADA within its system.

It is Commerce’s intent to have proposals representative of similar scope, supply, and configuration between suppliers based on performance requirements so that the proposals can be evaluated on an equal and fair basis with like-for-like comparison where possible. The proposals will be evaluated using criteria listed in Section 3. Commerce may request site visits and/or presentations from a short-list of Vendors prior to making a selection.

Background Commerce’s wastewater treatment system is primarily comprised of an existing Water Pollution Control Plant (WPCP), the Northside WPCP, water towers and pump stations to efficiently serve the surrounding area. An additional WPCP has been designed to better support the Northside WPCP, and is to begin construction soon.

Northside WPCP:

The Northside WPCP is an existing 2.1 million gallon per day (MGD) maximum monthly average daily flow (MMADF) facility in Commerce, GA. The Plant serves approximately 7,800 acres of property in Jackson County, Georgia and treats domestic, commercial and industrial wastewater.

The facility consists of coarse screening, influent flow measurement and recording, grit removal, aeration basins, filtration, chlorination and dechlorination. The original plant was constructed in 1974, and was upgraded in 1986 to treat 1.05 MGD of flow and was again upgraded in 2003 to treat its present 2.1 MGD permitted flow. A PFD of Northside WPCP site plant, adjacent lift station and P&I Diagram following their 2003 upgrade is attached in Appendix A.

The current SCADA system installed at the Northside WPCP is the General Electric Intellution iFIX

3.5 SCADA system. Computer displays present graphic illustrations of each system with equipment run status, process flow readings, chemical flow readings, chemical tank levels, alarms, alarm report history, reports and trending information.

This plant, the Grove Creek WPCP, is designed as a 2.0 MGD greenfield facility. The plant will feature an Orbal oxidation ditch, tertiary cloth disc filters, and a UV system. A PFD of the site plan for the proposed facility is attached in Appendix B. The location of the Beck Road lift station is also shown.
