About this opportunity

The Department of the Army Corps of Engineers Engineering District Walla Walla is conducting a sources sought market research notice for the DWA Transformers Hatchery Electric Upgrades project, which involves procuring three pad-mounted, oil-filled transformers for the Dworshak National Fish Hatchery electrical upgrades. The project requires one 500 KVA transformer, one 1500 KVA transformer, and one 2500 KVA transformer, all operating at 24.9 KV primary voltage and 480V secondary voltage, along with operation and maintenance manuals. Interested firms must submit a five-page capabilities package demonstrating their ability to meet the technical specifications and provide information about their business classification, CAGE code, UEI number, and subcontracting plans. This market research will determine whether the future solicitation will be set aside for small businesses or issued as unrestricted competition, with evaluation focusing on firms' confidence in meeting requirements and their subcontracting approach. All responses are due by September 5, 2025, and must be submitted to Zachary Newby at the specified email address.

The set-aside designation is currently to be determined based on the responses received, with consideration for various small business categories including 8(a), small disadvantaged business, woman-owned small business, service-disabled veteran-owned small business, or HUBZone classifications under NAICS code 335311, which has a small business size standard of 800 employees. No current contractors or incumbents are identified in this pre-solicitation notice, and no specific contract values or budget ranges are disclosed at this market research stage. The project involves delivering three transformers with specific technical requirements including sound level limitations of 57-62 dB maximum and compliance with IEEE C57.12.90 testing standards. Delivery must be completed within 80 weeks of contract award to the Dworshak National Fish Hatchery in Orofino, Idaho, with deliveries coordinated 30 days in advance during normal operating hours of Monday through Thursday, 7:00 AM to 4:30 PM. The future competitive solicitation will be structured as a firm-fixed price contract with a minimum one-year warranty requirement covering parts, labor, and workmanship.
