SPECIFICATION

Steam Coil Replacements on Test Steam Generators #3 and #4 General Information

GENERAL: This specification supports a contract to replace existing steam coils on two Test Steam Generators (SGs) #3 and #4 located in the SE corner of Building 431, Puget Sound Naval Shipyard & IMF, Bremerton, WA. The Government shall not exercise any supervision 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.

Description of Services/Introduction: The contractor shall provide all personnel, equipment, supplies, facilities, transportation, tools, materials, supervision, and other items and non-personal services necessary to replace steam coils in existing Steam Generators #3 and #4 as defined in this Specification except for those items specified as government-furnished property and services. The contractor shall perform, at a minimum, to the standards in this contract.

Background: Puget Sound Naval Shipyard (PSNS) tests ships' valves and pumps at its Pump/Valve Test Facility (PVTF). The PVTF requires steam generators to provide steam to test certain components. Two of these steam generators (SG3 and SG4 specifically) are currently not operational due to recently discovered steam coil leaks. The contract will be "Turn-Key'', i.e., the vendor/contractor will provide the necessary materials and labor to perform this work. The existing boilers are 300 BHP, once through natural gas fired, modulatic water tube boilers manufactured by the company Vapor Power International. These are Vapor Power's model KR7-E8500-VHK-300 boilers, see brochure listed in section 3.4.3.1 in Description of Existing Boiler Equipment section below.

Objectives:

· Procure new steam coil kits for both Steam Generators #3 and #4 (three coil sections per kit/six coil sections total).

· Remove existing steam coils and install new steam coils on both Steam Generators #3 and #4.

Scope:

· Includes all materials and work required to replace the steam coils in SGs #3 and #4. Performance Testing will validate SGs #3 and #4 can safely operate at their normal working capacity (flow and pressure).

Period of Performance: Two months from time of contract award through completion, including completion of equipment installation and testing, and submission of an acceptable Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratory (NRTL) Certification Report.

General Information Quality Assurance: To be considered acceptable, the contractor must demonstrate full functionality of the repaired boiler system during normal operation of the two existing steam generators. This includes starting up the steam generators, operating them up to normal working capacity (flow and pressure), and performing the shutdown process. These satisfactory operations shall be verified by Government personnel during the test period(s). It is acknowledged that the contractor is not responsible for pre-existing equipment deficiencies not related to the steam coil replacements per this contract.

Recognized Holidays: No work or service is to be accomplished during Federal Holidays. If on a weekend, this applies to the normal work day taken off by Federal employees in observance of these Holidays.
