This is a SOURCES SOUGHT SYNOPSIS and is not a solicitation announcement. The purpose of this Market Research and Sources Sought Notice is to gain knowledge of potential qualified Large Business, Small Business, HUBZone, 8(a), Service Disabled Veteran owned, and Women owned Small Business firms. Responses to this Sources Sought Synopsis will be used by the government in making appropriate acquisition decisions. The Bureau of Reclamation, Pacific Northwest Region, anticipates a future Time and Materials IDIQ procurement to acquire for Circuit Breaker Reconditioning. If a solicitation is released, this requirement may or may not have Brand Name requirements associated within the statement of work The Columbia Basin Project, which includes the Grand Coulee (GC) Dam as its main feature, is the Bureau of Reclamation's (BOR) largest multipurpose project. The Grand Coulee Power Office (GCPO) manages three major hydroelectric power generating plants and a pump generator plant (PGP). The GC Dam also has four switchyards used to transmit power to various customers; an 11.95-kilo-volt (kV), a 115-kV, a 230kV and a 500kV switchyard. The facilities collectively provide for power generation and transmission, irrigation, flood control, and public recreation. The GC Dam has been in operation since 1942 and has increased in capacity over time. The existing GC low voltage (LV) and medium voltage (MV) alternating current (AC) frame circuit breakers and molded case circuit breakers (MCCBs) vary in age and condition, reflecting the era each was installed in. Over the years this has resulted in an increased arc flash rating across the Project compounding the difficulty in GCPO’s ability to work on these circuit breakers. GCPO has an untenable safety issue in the form of high arc flash danger across the Project’s complex electrical system.
