REDACTED_ Allen-Bradley SCADA JA_RIA JMTC Sub A.pdf

This document is a Justification and Approval (J&A) for Other Than Full and Open Competition issued by the US Army Engineer District, Corps of Engineers for a SCADA system replacement project at Rock Island Arsenal. The project involves replicating existing SCADA system functions and installing new I/O cards using an Allen-Bradley PLC 7xx using an Allen-Bradley Controller 7xx with RSLogix 5000 PLC programming software and FactoryTalk SE software for SCADA. The contract is planned under FAR Part 16.505 with an estimated construction contract cost using FY24 O&M funding. The purpose is to modernize Substation A by replacing the existing electrical distribution system, which has aged components that are difficult to repair and are overloaded. The project will construct a new total of 24 medium-voltage main feed and tie circuit breakers sized to accommodate planned additional loads for both the Rock Island Arsenal and the Joint Manufacturing & Technology Center. The contracting agency has determined that only the existing SCADA system can integrate with the substation infrastructure, justifying a sole-source procurement with Allen-Bradley components.
