About this file
This document contains the Technical Specifications for retubing the condenser and evaporator tubes on two 200-ton Trane Water-Cooled Chillers at the McNary Lock and Dam facility. The intent is to replace all defective tubes in Heat Pump #1 and #2 following the successful installation and commissioning of Chiller #3.
The scope requires the contractor to furnish all labor, tooling, and equipment to extract the existing condenser and evaporator tubes, clean the tube sheets, and install new CuNi tubes of specified dimensions. The contractor will stand by for pressure and leak testing by the USACE, and then recommission the heat pumps. The government will be responsible for draining the chillers, removing insulation, evacuating the units, and providing access for the contractor. The contractor must comply with various security, safety, and training requirements. Submittals, warranty, shipping, and delivery requirements are also detailed.
This Technical Specifications document is associated with the pre-solicitation for the "MNA Trane Chiller Retubing" contract opportunity, Solicitation Number W912EF24RSS34. This is a sources sought announcement to identify qualified small business sources for a future competitive, firm-fixed price contract. Responses are due by July 12, 2024.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
MCNARY HEAT PUMP #1 AND #2 RETUBING CONDENSER AND EVAPORATOR
INTENT
The following specifications pertain to the repair of TWO 200-ton capacity Trane Water-Cooled Chillers Model RTHD. This is an in-house repair of TWO existing chillers that work together to regulate the temperature of McNary’s powerhouse and generating units. Items listed under Specifications 1.1 are the current configuration.
Incorrect tube material was used in the original Contract, W912EF-12-C-0027. The intent is to replace all defective tubes in both chillers (heat pump #1 and #2) following the successful installation and commissioning of Chiller #3 (heat pump #3).
SCOPE
The successful contractor shall be required to furnish all labor, tooling, and miscellaneous equipment to set up and extract the Two Hundred and Ninety-Eight (298) condenser and evaporator tubes from one chiller. Thoroughly clean all tube sheets holes in preparation for new tubes. Furnish and install new condenser and evaporator tubes. Use correct sealant(s) and installation methods. Stand by and observe the USACE lead pressure test and assist in leak checks. Upon completion of pressure and leak testing, the contractor will recommission the heat pump chillers.

Additionally, all contract personnel shall comply with Force Protection Condition (FPCON) measures, Random Antiterrorism Measures (commonly referred to as "RAMs"), and Health Protection Condition (HPCON) measures. The Contractor is responsible for meeting performance requirements during elevated FPCON and/or HPCON levels in accordance with applicable RA plans and procedures --this includes identifying mission essential and non-mission essential personnel. In addition to the changes otherwise authorized by the changes clause of this contract, should the FPCON or HPCON levels at any individual facility or installation change, the Government may implement security changes that affect contract personnel. The Contractor shall ensure all contract personnel are aware of their security responsibilities, including any site-specific requirements identified in local policies or procedures.
