PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT

PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT (PWS)

Oahe Dam Hydraulic Steel Structure (HSS) Nondestructive Testing

1.0 General Information: This is a GSA purchase contract (under FAR Part 8) contract to provide Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) in accordance with ANSI/AWS D1.1 Structural Welding Code – Steel (2020) to determine if any surface cracks exist in tested welds or base metal for the Omaha District Army Corps of Engineers. 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.

1.1 Background.

1.1.1 Oahe Dam is located on the Missouri River near the town of Pierre, South Dakota. Structures to be inspected are located on the intake structure upstream of the. Structures requiring nondestructive testing include eight intake bulkheads that are 24’-7” tall x 19’-1” wide x 2’-2” deep.

The intake bulkheads are used for dewatering (with personnel behind them) and consist of horizontal built-up girders, with multiple upstream compression flanges and a downstream tension skin plate. The tension skin plates are considered fracture critical, as are any members or welds within 12” of the skin plates. These steel structures were fabricated in the late 1950s and early 1960s.

1.2 Scope of Work. This is a GSA purchase contract (under FAR Part 8) to provide nondestructive testing on Oahe Dam hydraulic steel structures. Nondestructive testing shall be performed whether or not welds meet visual inspection criteria. The government will provide access to the structures requiring nondestructive testing. The contractor is responsible for providing their own safety equipment mentioned in Part 4 of this PWS. Specific items and areas to be nondestructively tested are as listed below. Additional items to be investigated with magnetic particle or dye penetrant testing may be identified by the Government during the inspection, as long as such additional work does not require the inspection to extend beyond the specified duration. Unless noted otherwise, all testing will be performed over existing paint. In some areas, the contractor may be required to perform some light cleaning, brushing, and/or scraping to prepare surfaces for testing. It is anticipated that all on-site work required in this PWS will be completed by one NDT technician within the specified inspection duration.

Intake Bulkheads Magnetic particle testing:

All welds within 12” of the downstream skin plate and base metal within 3” of those welds All welds connecting lifting plates to the bulkhead and base metal within 3” of those welds All accessible surfaces of painted magnetic steel lifting pins and shackles Areas within 3” of lifting pin bearing locations on lifting plates

Dye penetrant testing:

All accessible surfaces of unpainted lifting pins and shackles

The Contractor will provide all Non-Destructive Testing Equipment and will: 1) coordinate with the COR to schedule the inspection; 2) inspect the identified members using the prescribed NDT method in accordance with AWS D1.1; 3) bring any indications or defects to the attention of the Government at the time of inspection and fully document all indications and defects including defect location, length, width, orientation, extent, and type as much as possible. 4) create a written stand-alone report fully documenting the members inspected, method of NDT used, and results including detailed information about any indications or defects discovered.

1.3 Period of Performance: Non-Destructive Testing work at Oahe Dam shall occur June 5-9, 2023. The NDT report shall be submitted within 30 calendar days of completing the inspection. If Government review comments require any revisions to the report, the corrected report shall be submitted with 15 calendar days of receiving Government comments.

1.4 Contractor Bids: Contractor shall submit for approval a bid on the following work items:
