The Bureau of Reclamation's Missouri Basin Regional Office seeks to upgrade excitation systems at Yellowtail and Canyon Ferry Powerplants through a front-end retrofit of existing ECS-2100 voltage regulators with new Basler Electric DECS-2100 control boards and Human Machine Interfaces (HMIs). The project requires comprehensive installation, system testing, commissioning, and training for up to 8 individuals at each powerplant location. Contractors must demonstrate relevant experience within the last 3-5 years and employ Basler factory-trained technicians to perform the work under strict site security and safety protocols. Responses to this sources sought notice must include business information, past performance evidence with no more than 5 projects, and documentation of equipment assets and company capabilities. The government will use these responses to determine whether to proceed with a small business set-aside or unrestricted solicitation, with interested parties required to submit capability statements to Alicia Dunn at adunn@usbr.gov by June 30, 2025, at 11:00 AM MDT.

This procurement is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside under NAICS code 335311 (Power, Distribution and Specialty Transformer Manufacturing) with a size standard of 800 employees. The government anticipates issuing a firm-fixed-price contract with a 4-month performance period and plans to release the solicitation on July 3, 2025. Installation work is scheduled across January through April, with one generator unit anticipated to be available per week for commissioning activities. The project encompasses multiple generator units across two separate powerplant facilities, requiring precise compatibility with existing systems and comprehensive documentation deliverables. No incumbent contractors or specific award values are mentioned in the sources sought notice, and the government emphasizes that responses are voluntary and will not affect future proposal submission or evaluation processes.
