Description
The U.S. Navy is soliciting a sole‑source, fixed‑price contract to replace and upgrade the programmable logic controller (PLC) system that controls the Radioactive Liquid Waste Processing (RLW) facility at Naval Station Norfolk. The contractor will provide engineering, design, hardware procurement, installation, testing, training, and documentation to deliver a new PLC/SCADA system that is an exact duplicate of an existing system at Norfolk Naval Shipyard, ensuring interchangeability. Work includes detailed assessments, hardware/software acquisition, pre‑planning, demolition of legacy equipment, installation of new control hardware, network integration, extensive testing (FAT, PVT, endurance), and hand‑over of O&M data. The effort spans 24 months, with on‑site work performed in building CEP‑198, adherence to extensive radiological, safety, and cybersecurity standards, and requires a professional engineering staff with at least five years of design experience and three years with PLCs.
