Actuators for Cross Lake, MN

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Engineering District St Paul seeks proposals to provide thirteen multi-turn actuators to replace existing gate hoist drives at the Cross Lake Recreation Area in Manhattan Beach, Minnesota. The replacement actuators must physically match the existing units to allow for installation without modification to other equipment, with the exception of upgrading the motor from one to 1.5 horsepower. Proposals will be evaluated based on technical capability, past performance, and price. Proposals are due by October 13, 2023.

This opportunity is set aside for total small business and will be conducted according to NAICS code 333912, covering power driven handtools. The solicitation seeks thirteen actuators to operate 181-inch by 72-inch Whipps Services 900 sluice gates at the Cross Lake facility over a 204-inch stroke in 10-20 seconds, providing 250 foot-pounds of torque. An amendment clarified the type and brand of gates being actuated. The place of performance is the Cross Lake Recreation Area in Manhattan Beach, Minnesota.
