- Description
- This is a notice of intent to award a modification on a sole source basis pursuant to Federal Acquisition Regulation 6.302-1, only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. The Bureau of Reclamation, Acquisition and Assistance Management Office, intends to award a firm-fixed priced sole source modification to Precision Machine & Supply, Inc., 15708 East Marietta Lane, Spokane WA 99216/Andritz Hydro Corp., 10735 David Taylor Drive, Ste. 500, Charlotte NC 28262 (novation agreement is pending). Pressure Regulating Valves (PRVs) were designed in the 1930's through the 1950's and were manufactured by S. Morgan, Pelton/Baldwin, Allis Chalmers, and Newport News. As such, the PRVs are not standardized. Hoover Dam began modernizing PRVs in 2007. Modernized PRVs operate with a hydraulic system controlled by a programmable logic controller (PLC). The PLC monitors the status of the generator through the Unit Control Modernization (UCM). The hydraulic fluid is routed by way of a distributing valve that is controlled by the PLC. The modernization of Hoover Dam's PRVs requires the digital controls and hydraulic fluid valves be standardized. Hoover Dam overhauled the A2, A4, and A7 PRVs without modernization prior to 2007. Hoover Dam overhauled and modernized the N2, N3, N4, N7 and A6 PRVs under Contract No. R06PC30062 which was awarded to Precision Machine & Supply Inc. Hoover Dam Dam has overhaul and modernized PRV Units N1, N6, N8, A8, and A5 under Contract No. R11PC30062. PRV Units A1 and A3 are currently being overhauled and modernized during fiscal year 15/option year 3 under Contract No. R11PC30062. PRV Unit N5 will be overhauled and modernized during fiscal year 16/option year 4 under Contract No. R11PC30062. Hoover Dam is also planning to modernize A2, A4, and A7. Due to availability of funding, three additional Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) control systems and three additional Hydraulic Control Manifolds were procured under Contract No. R11PC30062 in order to modernize the remaining three PRV Units (A2, A4, and A7). Precision Machine and its subcontractors have exclusivity agreements to the design and systems and they are proprietary. This notice of intent is not to be considered a request for quotations or competitive proposals. This is a written notice to information the public of the Government's intent to proceed with a sole source modification for modernization (excluding overhaul) of PRV Unit A2 under Contract No. R11PC30062. Interested concerns must show clear and convincing evidence that competition of this requirement would be advantageous to the Government. All capability statements received within 5 business days after date of publication of this synopsis will be considered by the Government. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed requirement 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, Bureau of Reclamation, via email to 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).
