This is a Sources Sought announcement for a hydroelectric generator rewind project at Eufaula Powerhouse in Oklahoma. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers—Tulsa District is conducting market research for an anticipated construction contract, with proposals expected to be solicited in November 2026. The Sources Sought closes on September 8, 2026, at 2:00 PM CDT, and no contract will be awarded from this announcement.

The scope of work involves rewinding three Westinghouse hydroelectric generating units (rated at 31,579 kVA each) installed in 1963. Key deliverables include designing and manufacturing prototype coils with voltage endurance and thermal cycle testing; manufacturing three complete sets of stator coils with shop testing and delivery to site; designing and manufacturing new stator core laminations and core clamping for Unit 1; performing pre-disassembly mechanical and electrical testing; disassembling all three generators; inspecting and refurbishing guide bearings as directed; removing old stator coils and installing new stator windings; removing and replacing the Unit 1 stator core while inspecting and cleaning Units 2 and 3 cores; reassembling all units; furnishing and installing Machine Condition Monitoring equipment with air gap and vibration sensors; performing efficiency tests, start-up, commissioning, and model validation testing; and furnishing spare parts. Contract performance will occur at Eufaula Powerhouse, Oklahoma.

The procurement is classified under NAICS Code 237990 (Other Heavy and Civil Engineering) with a $45 million size standard. All business sizes are encouraged to respond, including Small Businesses, 8(a) firms, HUBZone, Women-Owned Small Businesses, and Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses. Firms must be registered in the System of Award Management (SAM) and provide a five-page maximum Experience/Capabilities Statement in PDF format, including company information, relevant experience, teaming arrangements if applicable, and up to three project examples from the past three years. Questions should be directed to Contract Specialist Clinton J. Yandell at clinton.j.yandell@usace.army.mil or (918) 669-4920. Only email submissions are accepted.

The type of set-aside decisions to be issued will depend upon the responses to this Sources Sought announcement and associated market research.

The Eufaula Powerhouse is located on the Canadian River, about 12 miles east of Eufaula in McIntosh County, Oklahoma. The powerhouse consists of three hydroelectric generating units, manufactured and installed by Westinghouse in 1963. Each generator is rated at 31,579 kVA, 13,800 V, 0.95 PF, 60 Hertz, 100 RPM, 115% overload capacity. The general scope of work for the project is to perform all work required to rewind the three generating units. The contractor shall provide all labor, material and equipment to perform this work in accordance with the detailed requirements of the specifications and contract drawings. The work shall include, but not necessarily be limited to the following:

1. Design, manufacture, and perform voltage endurance testing on prototype coils.

2. Manufacture and perform thermal cycle testing on prototype coils.

3. Design, manufacture, shop test, prepare and load for shipment, deliver f.o.b. destination, and unload three complete set of stator coils and all accessories.

4. Design, manufacture, test stator core laminations and core clamping system for Unit 1.

5. Perform pre-disassembly mechanical and electrical testing, and alignment checks of three generating units.

6. Disassemble three generator units, including the exciter equipment, air housings, and rotors.

7. Inspect the turbine guide bearing, turbine guide bearing housing, and generator guide bearing and, if directed by the Government, ship and refurbish bearings.

8. Inspection, cleaning, and testing of the rotor pole assemblies and field windings for all three units.

Reinsulation of the existing field leads for all three units. Perform field windings tests prior to removing the rotors.

9. Remove old stator coils for all three generating units.

10. Furnish, install and test new stator windings, including winding supplies and connections such as circuit rings, surge rings, main and neutral leads, neutral CTs, wedges, fillers, RTDs, etc.

11. Remove the stator core of Unit #1 and furnish, install and test new stator core of Unit #1, including stator clamping system.

12. Inspect, clean and test the stator cores of Units #2 and #3.

13. Reassemble each of the three generating units.

14. Furnish and install Machine Condition Monitoring (MCM) equipment for each unit, to include air gap sensors, shaft runout/vibration sensors and equipment for data acquisition, control and indication and programming. Perform necessary calibration & commissioning work for the new MCM systems.

15. Perform reassembly alignment checks and adjust units as necessary.

16. Perform generator efficiency tests on one unit.

17. Perform start-up, commissioning, and testing of all three generators.

18. Perfom model validation tests on all three units.

19. Furnish spare parts.
