About this opportunity

The United States Army Corps of Engineers St. Paul District (USACE) is soliciting quotes for electric motor winding and vibration analysis services for the Dredge Goetz fleet. The solicitation requires a qualified contractor to perform comprehensive testing of multiple electrical motors, including generators, winch motors, ladder motors, pump drive motors, cutter motors, and carriage motors. Contractors must use the SKF/BAKER AWA-IV system to conduct specific offline tests such as Balance Resistance, Insulation Resistance, Dielectric Absorption, Step Voltage, and Surge Tests. The testing will be conducted in two distinct phases: winding analysis between March 15-April 11 in the base year and February 1-March 30 in option years, with vibration analysis occurring between May 1-June 30 annually. Quotes are due by March 7, 2025, at 5:00 PM, with testing locations potentially including Fountain City Service Base in Wisconsin and St. Louis Service Base in Missouri.

The contract is set aside for total small business participation under NAICS category 811310 with a size standard of $12.5 million. The contract will cover testing along the Mississippi River system from Reeds Landing, Minnesota to Lansing, Iowa, with strict safety requirements including mandatory use of personal protective equipment like life vests, hardhats, protective eyewear, and high-visibility vests. Contractors must meticulously record motor data plate information and follow comprehensive electrical lockout procedures, with no repair work permitted without prior written approval from the contracting officer. The contract includes a base period with potential multi-year options, not to exceed 5 years and 6 months total duration. A USACE employee will be present during all testing to assist with equipment access and identification, and the contractor will be required to provide detailed written reports documenting any problems discovered during the motor and vibration analysis.
