AI Contract Overview

The Government intends to award a sole source contract to FDH Engineering for non-destructive testing of trunnion girder anchor rods at the Cannelton Dam in Kentucky and the Newburgh Dam in Indiana, both located on the Ohio River. This procurement is made under the authority of 10 U.S.C. 2304 (c)(1) and FAR 6.302-1, recognizing FDH Engineering’s unique expertise and experience required for this specialized evaluation. The testing is essential to verify the tensile load on the anchor rods, which provide critical lateral resistance to the trunnion girders that support the tainter gates, without causing damage or compromising the structural integrity of the gate supports. The methodology involves applying a refined regression analysis model to measurements of wave propagation within the rods to assess tension forces accurately. The US Army Corps of Engineers, Louisville District, is overseeing this contract, which includes all labor, materials, testing, analysis, and reporting necessary to complete the evaluation before November 2015 to maintain the project’s overall schedule. While the contract is a sole source award, the agency invites all responsible sources to submit capability statements by 10:00 AM Eastern Time on August 14, 2015, for consideration. This procurement is classified under NAICS code 541330, and though it is not a request for proposal, it outlines the specific performance requirements and procedural details for interested parties.

Full Description

Notification of Sole Source Procurement. In accordance with 10 U.S.C. 2304 (c)(1) and FAR 6.302-1 the Government intends to limit sources to FDH Engineering for an in-situ evaluation of structural members at Cannelton Dam, KY and Newburgh, IN. FDH Engineering retains the necessary expertise and experience to complete the required evaluation. Testing must be completed prior to November 2015 in order to maintain the overall project schedule. The US Army Corps of Engineers- Louisville District is seeking a sole source contract with FDH Engineering to conduct non- destructive testing of trunnion girder anchor rods that support the tainter gates on the Cannelton and Newburgh Dams. Cannelton and Newburgh Dams are located on the Ohio River within the geographic boundaries of the Great Lakes and Rivers Division of the US Army Corps of Engineers. Trunnion girder anchor rods are located on support piers on each side of the tainter gates. The tainter gates are attached to the support pier by the trunnion girder. The anchor rods extend through the center of each girder and are either friction bolted into the pier or grouted into place. The anchor rods provide lateral resistance to the trunnion girder during the tainter gate operation. Non-destructive testing method is necessary to verify the tensile load on the anchor rods while preventing damage and possibly jeopardizing the structural integrity of the gate support during necessary periodic examinations. The non-destructive test method sought uses a refined model of regression analysis of collected measurements of wave propagation within each trunnion rod to determine the tension forces within the rod. A contract will be executed consists of all labor and materials to complete testing of rods on each Dam including analysis and reporting. All responsible sources may submit a capability statement which shall be considered by the agency. Capability statement must be submitted no later than 10:00AM Eastern Time on 14 August 2015 to contact@example.gov. THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL.
