Clackamas County Water Environment Services (WES) has issued Request for Proposals #2022-84 seeking qualified consultants to serve as Districts Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) System Integrators of Record. The procurement aims to select at least two system integrators to provide on-call and project-specific control system services related to design, installation, operation, and maintenance of the district's instrumentation and SCADA systems. The district's existing infrastructure includes five wastewater treatment facilities, twenty pump stations, twenty-five flow monitoring stations, and one regional detention facility, with potential future expansion of fiber optic communication and data visualization software implementation. Proposal evaluation will be based on three key criteria: project team, firm qualifications and experience, and understanding and approach, with a total of 100 points available. The original RFP was posted on September 15, 2022, with proposals due by October 18, 2022, and the selected contract will have an initial one-year term with the option to renew for four additional one-year periods, not exceeding a total of five years.

The RFP does not specify specific set-aside designations or restrictions on responding organizations. Proposers are expected to demonstrate extensive experience with SCADA systems, water/wastewater infrastructure, and data management tools like eRIS. The county has identified OCD Automation Inc. and Jacobs Engineering Group, Inc. as the apparent successful proposers based on their high-scoring proposals. While no specific budget range is provided, the contract will be for on-call and project-specific services, suggesting a flexible pricing structure. The district's existing technology infrastructure includes multiple facilities and monitoring stations, with a focus on expanding communication capabilities and implementing advanced data visualization. Proposers will need to show proficiency in working with complex, interconnected water environment systems and demonstrate the ability to provide comprehensive SCADA system integration support.
