AI Contract Overview

Show more

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Portland District, intends to award a firm-fixed price, single-source contract to North Coast Electric Company for Tech Connect Support Services at The Dalles Lock and Dam in Oregon. This procurement is necessary to maintain 59 Allen-Bradley programmable logic controllers, which require specific hardware, software updates, and support products manufactured by Rockwell Automation. North Coast Electric Company is identified as the only authorized local distributor capable of providing these essential services in the geographic area. The government intends to solicit the vendor directly on or around September 3, 2026, though interested parties may submit capability statements until the September 1, 2026, deadline. Failure to secure these services could lead to the damage or failure of critical equipment controlled by the Allen-Bradley systems. The action falls under NAICS 541519 for other computer-related services and is justified as a non-competitive acquisition for commercial purchases below the simplified acquisition threshold.

THIS IS A SPECIAL NOTICE PREPARED IN ACCORDANCE WITH FEDERAL ACQUISITION REGULATION (FAR) SUBPART 5.2 “SYNOPSES OF PROPOSED CONTRACT ACTIONS”


NAICS 541519, Other Computer Related Services


Response Deadline: 1 September 2026


The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Portland District (NWP) intends to negotiate/award a firm-fixed price (FFP) service, single source procurement to North Coast Electric Company for Tech Connect Support Services at The Dalles Lock and Dam, Oregon.


REASON FOR SOLE SOURCE ACQUISITION:


The statutory authority for this non-competitive acquisition is 10 USC § 3204(a)(1), RFO FAR 12.102(a), Soliciting from a single source for commercial purchases not exceeding the simplified acquisition threshold.


The purpose is to provide Tech Connect Support Services at The Dalles Lock and Dam, Oregon.


Background: The required Tech Connect Support Services at The Dalles Lock and Dam are specifically for Rockwell Automation brand hardware, software and support products. The Dalles Dam Project currently has (59 each) Allen-Bradley programmable logic controllers (manufactured by Rockwell Automation) currently in service that require the use of Allen-Bradley products, including software updates. This requires a current Tech Connect support contract.


Justification: North Coast Electric Company is the only appointed Allen-Bradley distributor authorized to sell Allen-Bradley Standard Controls, Drives, PLC/MMI and Rockwell Software products, along with related services, in the geographic area in which The Dalles Lock and Dam is located. Factory products and sales support are made available only through the local authorized distributor, North Coast Electric Company. No other company is a local authorized distributor, and no other company can provide these services to The Dalles Lock and Dam.


Impact: Continued Tech Connect Services are mandatory. Without this purchase, damage or failure to critical equipment that is controlled by Allen-Bradley hardware and software is likely to result due to the inability to properly maintain the Allen-Bradley products at The Dalles Lock and Dam.


The Government intends to solicit North Coast Electric Company directly for this project on or around 3 September 2026. At this time, a solicitation does not exist. All responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal, or quotation, which shall be considered by the agency.

Foster Spillway Gate Nut Replacement and Re-Tensioning
Solicitation # PANNWD-26-P-0000033137
The Department of Defense, through the USACE Portland District, is seeking industry capabilities for the Foster Spillway Gate Nut Replacement and Re-Tensioning project in Oregon. This effort involves the supply and replacement of custom hardware, including 192 castle nuts, 48 U-bolts, 8 U-bolt spacers, and 8 gate connection pins, as well as the provision of a custom installation tool. Most components are to be fabricated from A564 UNS 17400 Type 630 Condition H1100 material, while spacers will be made from self-lubricated composite material. Beyond hardware replacement, the contractor is responsible for the release and re-tensioning of wire ropes to ensure the gate contacts the spillway ogee evenly and does not rub side walls during vertical travel. The project is estimated to cost between 1 million and 5 million dollars and is expected to be awarded as a single Firm Fixed-Price contract via an Invitation for Bid in December 2026. Performance requirements include the operation of a crane, use of scaffolding or suspended manbaskets, and the management of stoplogs. The contractor must also handle the closure of Foster Dam Road for public safety. Due to the remote location, the project faces challenges such as limited ingress and egress, inclement winter weather, and wildfire risks. Additionally, a specific work window will be established to accommodate maintenance needs and the protection of fish species. Eligible bidders must be registered in the System for Award Management and maintain CMMC Level 2 (Self) certification or higher prior to award.

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Portland District is preparing to solicit bids for the replacement of Navigation Lock 1 Bridge at Bonneville Lock and Dam in Cascade Locks, Oregon, with a new fixed steel girder bridge on a downstream alignment. The project involves constructing a 34-foot-4.5-inch-wide single-span bridge with two 11-foot travel lanes, two 2-foot shoulders, a 5-foot sidewalk, and four built-up steel plate girders supporting a concrete deck. The bridge will replace the existing structure while maintaining vehicular access throughout construction, requiring phased work.

Solicitation # W9127N26BA006
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Portland District is seeking bids for a comprehensive HVAC upgrade at the John Day Dam Powerhouse, located approximately 109 miles east of Portland, Oregon, with operations spanning Sherman County, Oregon, and Klickitat County, Washington. The project involves replacing the primary chiller systems and installing secondary chillers across two chilled water loops, adding four new chiller skid packages totaling about 600 tons of refrigeration capacity, and integrating all new mechanical components into a unified digital control system. The work includes converting half the system to air-cooled units with roof-mounted condensers requiring structural penetrations, installing new ducting and air handlers, upgrading electrical feeds and piping, and modifying intakes and louvers to support smoke ventilation and free cooling using outside air. All systems must comply with stringent fire protection integration standards, including passive shutdown of HVAC zones during smoke events, and must use only refrigerants not subject to future phase-out schedules. The project will occur within an active powerhouse containing 13.8kV electrical busbars, requiring strict safety controls, noise and water intrusion mitigation, and continuous operation of critical fire suppression systems. Contractors must comply with Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification Level 2 (Self) requirements, with subcontractors also required to meet corresponding CMMC levels based on whether they handle Federal Contract Information or Controlled Unclassified Information, all verified in the Supplier Performance Risk System prior to award. Bidders must maintain an active SAM registration and have a NIST SP 800-171 assessment with at least a Basic confidence level on file. The work is governed by a firm-fixed-price contract under an Invitation for Bids, with an estimated value between $25M and $100M and a completion timeline of 1,004 calendar days after Notice to Proceed. The effort includes asbestos and lead mitigation, structural modifications, and installation of localized HVAC units with full integration into the central control network. The acquisition is unrestricted, classified under NAICS code 238220 with a $19M small business size standard, and subject to international trade agreements. The solicitation is planned for release in mid-August 2026, with bids due no fewer than 30 days after issuance, and contractors are advised to monitor SAM.gov for updates and to complete SAM registration well in advance due to processing delays.
