MNA - Power and Control Infrastructure Upgrades

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Walla Walla District, is seeking information from responsible sources who can provide a solution that is fully and seamlessly interoperable with the OPTO-22 equipment and the existing Generic Data Acquisition and Control (GDACS) system infrastructure at McNary Lock and Dam. The project involves upgrading the McNary Dam spillway electrical system, including the modernization of the spillway hoist remote-control system. The Government intends to specify the use of OPTO-22 Groove EPIC processors and I/O components. • The project requires installing 25 networked Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) that must interface directly with the existing GDACS system. • The Government is seeking information from responsible sources who can provide a solution that is fully and seamlessly interoperable with the OPTO-22 equipment and the existing GDACS system infrastructure. • Interested parties must provide a statement of capability with clear and convincing evidence that their proposed alternative components can integrate with the existing OPTO-22 system without the need for custom middleware, separate software platforms, or additional specialized training.
