RPR Outdated Electrical Switchgear Study B820-830

STATEMENT OF WORK

01 April 2024

1. GENERAL: The contractor shall provide all management, plant, labor, tools, equipment, supplies, and materials necessary to execute the following work for this engineering study.

1.1. Conduct an engineering design study, to include a Class 4 cost estimate (accuracy defined as -

20% to +30%) and provide recommendations to upgrade and/or replace the existing outdated switchgear and motor control center equipment in Mission Buildings B820 and B830 at Cavalier Space Force Station (CSFS), North Dakota.

1.1.1. The study shall provide cost effective, feasible, and sustainable options that will upgrade the Tactical Support Switchgear (SWGR) and Motor Control Centers (MCC) while optimizing the power distribution system’s energy efficiency, reliability, resiliency and performance. The upgraded equipment, SWGR and MCCs, must retain their local and remote controls, their voltage and current protection and monitoring as well as any existing capabilities. Additionally, the study must be conducted within the context of the defined short-term and long-term mission requirements of CSFS.

1.1.2. Given that existing manufactured parts are no longer available to conduct routine and preventative maintenance on the switchgear and corresponding equipment, the study must explore both upgrading the existing equipment with modernized technology as well as replacing the existing equipment via reengineering.

2. PRINCIPAL FEATURES: The work to be performed includes, but is not limited to the following:

2.1. Engineering Design Study: The contractor shall identify the electrical equipment requiring replacement at B820 and B830 and will conduct a technical study. Each piece of equipment must be studied on an individual basis. The study shall identify a course of action (COA) to upgrade the existing equipment with a modern product and another COA to replace the existing equipment via reengineering.

2.1.1. In the case that there is no available purchasable commodity to upgrade the equipment with, the COA to upgrade the existing equipment may be disregarded. This must be assessed per each specific piece of equipment only.

2.1.2. For COAs to replace existing equipment via reengineering, the contractor will provide completed designs for each article of equipment as part of the Study submittal.

Additionally, the contractor will generate a general set of instructions to construct the new equipment; also to be included as part of the Study submittal.

2.2. Decision Meeting: The contractor will conduct a briefing with all necessary stakeholders, chaired by Capt Benjamin Thompson, 10 SWS/MS, to present the results of the completed Engineering Design Study. The results shall be presented to articulate each COA and their advantages and disadvantages. The stakeholders will indicate their consensus preferred COA to the contractor, who will record the responses.

2.2.1. The decision meeting must be scheduled at least 10 business days in advance and must include an electronic copy (.pdf preferred) of the Engineering Design Study and an electronic copy of the meeting slides and agenda. The meeting can be coordinated through Capt Thompson (benjamin.thompson.15@spaceforce.mil).

2.3. Cost Estimate: The contractor will develop a Class 4 Cost Estimate encompassing each of the preferred COAs from the decision meeting. The contractor shall use software programs such as PACES or any other official cost estimation application to generate the estimate. The estimate shall be electronically delivered as a .pdf to 319 CONS. Additionally, the contractor shall have no more than 10 business days following the Decision Meeting to develop, complete, and deliver the estimate.

3. PREWORK REQUIREMENTS: The contractor shall perform a pre-work inspection of the electrical gear at B820 and B830. If the presence of hazardous material is discovered or reasonably suspected in any of the articles of equipment, the contractor shall provide the project manager a HAZMAT abatement plan as part of the Engineering Design Study submittal.

4. SPECIFICATIONS: All work shall be accomplished in accordance with UFC 1-200-01 General Building Requirements, Unified Facilities Guide Specifications, Engineering Technical Letters, NEC, NFPA and any manufacturer’s specification associated with equipment, materials, and supplies. In the event of a conflict between any of the specifications or codes, the most stringent standards will always apply.

5. DRAWINGS: All newly selected, purchasable, or reengineered, item of equipment must include a schematic drawing, submitted as a .pdf. All reengineered items are to be designed in AutoCAD or another computer animated design software of the contractor’s preference. A .dwg or comparably formatted file must be submitted for all reengineered items. All drawings must be submitted in conjunction with the Engineering Design Study.

6. SUBMITTALS: The contractor will provide the following documents to the project manager. All documents will submitted electronically and, when possible, in .pdf format.

6.1. Engineering Design Study (see paragraph series 2.1 for details).

6.2. Minutes of the Decision Meeting (see paragraph series 2.2).

6.3. Class 4 Cost Estimate.

7. PERMITS: The contractor shall obtain all applicable construction permits for this task order including, but not limited to, AF Form 103 Work Clearance Request.

8. LOCKOUT/POWER-DOWN REQUIREMENTS: The contractor is required to coordinate and schedule any requested power or equipment outages (power down and lockout) no less than 10 business days prior to the needed time.

9. HAZARDOUS MATERIALS: If hazardous materials are suspected in the pre-work inspection (see paragraph 3.1), the contractor’s proposal shall include appropriate measures for testing and analysis of the suspect material. The contractor’s proposal shall also include estimated quantities for abatement of the suspected hazardous materials to be utilized upon confirmation by the test reports.

10. GENERAL SECURITY: Security requirements for Air Force/Space Force facilities under control of CSFS are specific and rigidly enforced. Levels of security include Restricted and Controlled areas.

Differing degrees of security are enforced at each area. Minimum security requirements, common not only to each of these secure areas, are also required for entry onto CSFS. These minimum requirements are outlined below:

10.1. The Restricted Area is listed in 10 SWS Regulations and is identified as the interior or B820 and B830. These areas are conspicuously identified by posted signs.

10.2. Controlled areas include several user-controlled base buildings including all communications facilities and fenced-in areas located on CSFS. Each of these areas are identified in CSFS regulations and each is conspicuously identified by posted signs.

11. PROJECT AREA: This contract will involve access to restricted areas. Coordination for access can be made with Capt Ghent. Coordination must be made no later than 10 business days prior to required access.

12. MINIMUM SECURITY REQUIREMENTS (All Area’s Including Base Entry):

12.1. Visitor Passes: The Main Gate at CSFS does not issue Visitor Passes, but the contractor and all contractor employees must be cleared on an Entry Authorization List for the duration of the contract. Obtain the proper entry request forms, including a personal electronic device letter for any electronic devices to be used in or carried into restricted areas. Only company vehicles will be allowed into controlled or restricted areas. Current valid copies of driver’s license, vehicle registration, and proof of insurance will be required for base entry. Clearance on the Entry Authorization List must be obtained no later than 5 business days prior to required entry.

12.2. The Tactical Support Switchgear and Motor Control Centers being studied are all within the Restricted Area. This contract will entail work and/or research within areas requiring Restricted Area access. Unless Unescorted Restricted Area access is granted, all contractors are required to be escorted at all times while within a Controlled or Restricted Area. Escorts will be provided when required.

13. CONDUCT REQUIREMENTS: The contractor’s employees shall comply with all base traffic regulations and properly conduct themselves while on station.
