About this opportunity
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Portland District solicited construction services for the repair and modification of three transformers (T9, T10, and T11) at The Dalles Lock and Dam located in Klickitat County, Washington and Wasco County, Oregon. The procurement targeted electrical contractors capable of performing comprehensive transformer repairs on 230,000/132,790-13200 Volt, 233,000 kVA class transformers manufactured by General Electric in 1972, with particular focus on addressing a failed high-voltage neutral conductor in transformer T10 that forced it out of service in 2018. The solicitation required contractors to perform detailed technical work including internal transformer inspection, oil drainage and processing, neutral conductor repair, component reinstallation, electrical testing, and commissioning services. Proposals were to be evaluated using a Best Value Tradeoff source selection method with nonpriced factors considered equal in importance. The solicitation underwent multiple deadline extensions, with the final due date extended to August 14, 2025, before ultimately being cancelled on September 4, 2025.
This procurement was designated as a 100% Total Small Business Set-Aside under NAICS code 238210 (Electrical Contractors and Other Wiring Installation) with a small business size standard of $19 million. The estimated project value ranged between $3 million and $5 million for a single firm-fixed-price construction contract. The work was to be performed at The Dalles Lock and Dam on the Columbia River, with transformers located on the powerplant intake deck. The contract included a performance period extending from July 2025 through September 2027, with the actual work timeline spanning 365 calendar days. Two mandatory site visits were scheduled during the solicitation process, with specific safety requirements including steel-toed boots, hardhats, and REAL ID-compliant identification for attendees. The solicitation included provisions for mobilization, demobilization, testing, commissioning, and optional asbestos removal services as separate contract line items.

Update #2 ·
*This update adds in two videos of the transformers and where the work will be conducted.
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineer (USACE) Portland District intends to solicit construction firms who are interested in submitting a competitive firm-fixed-price proposal for this project. This announcement is for the construction/modification/repair of The Dalles T9, T10, and T11 transformers located in Klickitat County, Washington and Wasco County, Oregon.
Project Scope: The US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Portland District seeks Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction Contractors who can provide construction services for The Dalles Lock and Dam (“the Dalles” and “TDA”). The Dalles T9, T10, and T11 transformers are identical 230,000/132,790-13200 Volt, 233,000 kVA class Forced Oil and Forced Air (FOA) three-phase transformers manufactured by General Electric’s Pittsfield, Massachusetts facility in 1972. The T10 transformer was forced out of service in 2018 due to a failed high-voltage neutral conductor internal to the tank between the H1 and H2 windings. All three transformers are located outside on the powerplant intake deck on the Columbia River.
