- Description
- This is a notice of intent to award a modification on a sole source basis to Precision Machine & Supply, Inc., 3218 East Main Street, Lewiston ID 83501. The justification is Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements. This procurement is to purchase ten additional Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) control systems and ten additional Hydraulic Control Manifolds which were specially designed, manufactured, and supplied under Contract No. R06PC30062 to modernize pressure regulating valves (PRVs) at Hoover Dam. The modernization required the following: (1) changing the control of the PRV from mechanical to digital; (2) replacing the components operated by lake water and the mechanical linkages to the turbine with oil-hydraulic systems and digital hydraulic drivers; and (3) linking computer intelligence electronically from the UCM PLCs to the PRV's controls to operate the modernized PRV. In order to achieve the modernization, Precision Machine was required, in part, to perform the following work: (1) design, build, and install a PLC control system to operate the PRV that communicates with the Unit Control Modernization (UCM) control system and (2) design, manufacture, and install a control manifold to properly distribute the oil for moving the cylinder. In response to Precision Machine's requirements, Controlled Motion Solutions (Comoso) and American Governor provided designs and schematics. Precision Machine required that the Comoso's hydraulic manifold correctly control the flow of high pressure hydraulic oil into and out of the hydraulic cylinder in response to commands received from the American Governor controller. Precision Machine and its subcontractors have exclusivity agreements to the design and systems and they are proprietary. The additional quantities of the PLC control systems and Hydraulic Control Manifolds must be identical in design, manufacture, assembly, and function to those already provided for on the modernized PRVs under Contract No. R06PC30062. This notice of intent is not to be considered a request for quotations or competitive proposals, however, all capability statements received within 5 days after date of publication of this synopsis will be considered by the Government. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed action based on responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. All responses to this special notice shall be provided to Rita Horkan, LC-10212, Contract Specialist, P.O. Box 61470, Boulder City, NV 89006-1470, Facsimile (702) 293-8036, or via email at rhorkan@.usbr.gov. The Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition will be made available for public inspection as required by 41 U.S.C. 253(f)(4).
