The contract is being awarded in support of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Tulsa District (SWT) hydropower mission. The Government will evaluate the proposals in accordance with the criteria described herein, and award a firm fixed price contract to the responsible offeror, whose proposal conforms with all the terms and conditions of the solicitation and whose proposal is determined to represent the overall best value to the Government.

Interested firms or joint venture entities (referred to as “offerors” or “proposers”) submit specified performance capability proposals, demonstrating their capability to successfully execute the design-bid-build construction contract resulting from this solicitation. The Government will evaluate the performance capability proposals in accordance with the criteria described in Section 00 22 11, PROPOSAL SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS, EVALUATION CRITERIA, AND BASIS OF AWARD to choose the best value proposal for award.

1.2 Project Description: The requirements of this contract are to provide all equipment, labor, materials, and work required to refurbish Robert S.

This is not a full and complete listing of the required work listed in the specification. Specifically, the proposed plan of work involves the Contractor furnishing all supervision, engineering, labor, materials, and equipment to perform the stated work in strict accordance with the detailed requirements of the contract.

The existing Kaplan turbines will be replaced with new Kaplan turbine runners with a rated output of 49,300 hp. to accommodate the new rewound generators. Besides the replacement of the turbine runner the majority of the turbine work will be focused around head covers, wicket gates, turbine shaft, runner, bearings, operating ring, servomotors, and facing plates. The wicket gates will be replaced. A discharge ring insert will be fabricated, installed and machined to proper profile. The rest of the turbine equipment will be inspected and/or replaced/refurbished to include but not limited to stay ring, stay vane, vacuum breaker, head covers, bottom ring, and facing plates.

The Contractor shall also be required to rehabilitate Units 1 through 4 by replacement of the generator stator winding. The new stator winding shall be rated no less than 37,895 KVA at a power factor of 0.95 with a temperature rise not to exceed 75 degrees C above a cooler discharge air temperature of 40 degree C., when operated at rated load. Replacements of Units 1 through 4 generator stator cores will be included as an option. The field winding will be inspected, tested, and cleaned, but may be reinsulated as an option.

All in-person visitors will be required to follow CDC guidelines for manufacturing and all visitors will be screened for COVID-19 symptoms.

Visitors' body temperatures will be checked prior to entry into the plant to identify anyone with a fever of 100.4°F or greater (or reported feelings of feverishness) and if so, will be denied entry. Visitors will be checked for appropriate PPE including hard hat, safety boots, and face covering. Once admitted into the plant, visitors must maintain a social distance of six (6) feet from one another and their assigned escort. Visitors may be allowed access inside machinery if said machinery is not in service at time of visit and is determined to be safely accessible. Cameras and cell phones will be permitted in most areas, but visitors must not photograph security features of the plant. Visitors must remain with their assigned escort at all times. Verbal questions will not be allowed during the site walk portion but will be addressed if submitted in writing on the Projnet website as described in paragraph 1.5 above.
