About this file

This document is the specifications for a federal contract opportunity to replace the existing spillway transformers, disconnect switches, and motor control centers at the Garrison Dam in North Dakota. The key details are:

The contract is to replace the existing 13.8kV/480V transformers, disconnect switches, and motor control centers serving the dam's spillway. The new transformers will be delta-wye configuration, with the size to be determined based on available space, physical access, and existing conductor ampacity. High resistance grounding will be added to the new transformers. The existing switchboard and motor control center will also be replaced. The work will be performed by Garrison personnel, with the contractor providing the new equipment. Potential offerors are invited to arrange their own site visit. The primary NAICS code is 335311 - Power, Distribution and Specialty Transformer Manufacturing. Solicitation documents will be posted to SAM.gov, and all questions should be directed to the contract specialist.
