This is a PRESOLICITATION NOTICE and is for informational/market research purposes only. THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL, QUOTATION OR BID, NOR A SYNOPSIS OF A PROPOSED CONTRACT ACTION UNDER FAR SUBPART 5.2. Notice Details. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Northwestern Division, Portland District (NWP) is seeking Industry review of the 90% plans and specifications documents for this Supply/Construction Hybrid Acquisition. Project Site Background/Scope. The purpose of this requirement is to provide a hybrid design, manufacturing, and construction type contract with an estimated magnitude of over $500,000,000 for the turbine runner replacement and generator rehabilitation of up to sixteen turbines and generators at John Day Dam, spanning the Columbia River between Washington and Oregon. The goals of the project are to address decreasing reliability and efficiency of the hydroelectric generating units and to maximize the net economic benefits over the next several decades, while maintaining an acceptable level of operational flexibility, all within the hydraulic and environmental constraints imposed on the project. Economic benefits will be realized through increasing reliability and efficiency of the hydroelectric generating units after replacing existing turbines with improved fish passage turbines that provide improved power generating efficiency, rewinding the generators, and replacing and refurbishing other powertrain equipment. The design of the state-of-the-art turbines will be an iterative and collaborative process that focuses on improved fish passage design features and criteria to improve survival of turbine-passed fish. Finally, this project will decrease the risk of oil entering the water passageway and river through improved sealing technologies, design considerations for new adjustable-blade turbine runners, and the introduction of some fixed-blade turbine runners. Portland District anticipates soliciting the requirement in March 2023. The contract will include three main stages of performance: design, manufacture/fabrication, installation/on-site work. These stages will begin in approximately 2024 for a period which could exceed fifteen years. Acquisition Strategy Method. Portland District intends to award a Fixed-Price “C” type contract as described below. Fixed-Price Contract w/ EPA – The Government, at time of contract award, would have a defined requirement with optional CLINs which may or may not be exercised dependent upon final design elements. Each CLIN would include a schedule and scope, each of which may require modification should there be changes in either. Communications for Industry.
