for Other than Full and Open Competition – FAR Part 6

1. Contracting Activity: U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Charleston District, Charleston Contracting Office, 69-A Hagood Avenue, Charleston, SC 29403-5107

2. Description of Action:

The Contractor shall supply 1 transformer in accordance with the specifications outlined below:

- Electrical Service Size 1600A Transformer (See MUSC Dominion Load Letter for Specifications).

- Utility instrument transformers supplied under this contract shall include no-charge technical support for both initial installation and maintenance.

- Equipment and accessories supplied under this contract shall at a minimum be backed by a two-year warranty.

3. Description of Supplies/Services:

Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC) Stormwater Pump Station Upfit Project will replace existing stormwater pumps with larger 250hp (355FLA) pumps. The upgrade in pump size will require that the existing 1200A electrical service be increased to 1600A. The project will replace the existing service entrance fused disconnect with a 1600A Switchboard with (2) kirk-keyed main breakers, allowing City staff to switch over to a mobile standby generator if needed. Pumps will be controlled using Variable Frequency Drives (VFD). The transformer serves all PS electrical and instrumentation, including HVAC of the small control room building, and a few streetlights. Pumps will run briefly a few times per day to dewater groundwater but most demand will be during storm events, where they will run in sequence one, two or all three pumps combined for the duration of the storm event. Control Room Building and instrumentation (~200 sf) will be powered continuously.

The total estimated value of the proposed action is $
