PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT (PWS)

Garrison Transformer Repairs

1.0 General Information.

1.1 Background. The purpose of this project is to perform miscellaneous repairs on four transformers at Garrison Power Plant, North Dakota. Generator step-up transformers #5 and #2 are located on the draft tube deck at elevation 1703.0, and autotransformer KV33A and the station service transformer are located in the switchyard southeast of the powerhouse.

GSU #5 is leaking oil from the core and core clamp grounding bushings located on the top of the transformer; the Autotransformer is leaking oil from one thermowell temperature sensor located on the top of the transformer; the Station Service transformer is leaking oil from the conservator tank valve assembly; the tap changer on GSU #2 is currently stuck and cannot be moved out of the #3 position due to a failed worm gear.

Reference attached technical specification Section 26 11 14.00 10 – GARRISON TRANSFORMER REPAIRS for more detailed information.

1.2 Scope of Work. This is a non-personal services contract to provide miscellaneous repairs on four transformers at Garrison Hydroelectric power plant, North Dakota. Project requirements include the following items:

1) Perform pre-work and post-work electrical testing on GSU #5.

2) Perform pre-work and post work insulating oil testing on all transformers.

3) Drain transformer oil down to the level required to make necessary repairs on all transformers, and store in a clean container for refilling.

4) Supply ground bushings for GSU #5 and tap changer worm gear for GSU #2.

5) Make repairs as necessary for each transformer.

6) All work on an individual transformer must be performed during one continuous outage.

Reference attached technical specification Section 26 11 14.00 10 – GARRISON TRANSFORMER REPAIRS for more detailed information and requirements. The Government shall not exercise any supervision or control over the contract service providers performing the services herein. Such contract service providers shall be accountable solely to the Contractor who, in turn is responsible to the Government. This is a fixed priced, performance based service contract where the Government defines and measures desired outcomes, while Contractor methods are generally not constrained or directed.

1.3 Period of Performance. The period of performance shall be 270 days from award. Work shall be completed with mutually agreeable dates coordinated between the Government and the Contractor. Permissible outage dates are April through May 2022. The Contractor shall efficiently execute work to minimize the outage periods. Overlapping outages may occur between the station service transformer and GSU #2, or the station service transformer and GSU #5. No other concurrent transformer outages will be allowed. A minimum 18 hour transformer settling period shall be required before re-energizing the transformer.
