Notice of Intent - Sole Source Procurement for Wells Control System Upgrade at Fort Drum

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is seeking to upgrade the wells control system at Fort Drum. The existing system is a proprietary control system, and the new controls must seamlessly integrate with the incumbent manufacturer's platform. The required supplies and services include proprietary programmable logic controllers (PLCs), input/output (I/O) modules, SCADA software licenses, and the associated engineering services for programming, configuration, and integration. The project requires the expansion and modernization of the existing Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system controlling the facility's water wells. • The existing SCADA system is a highly integrated and proprietary platform. • The new controls must be fully compatible with the existing Fort Drum wells control system, which is based on the Trane platform. • The project requires the expansion and modernization of the existing SCADA system. • The required supplies and services include proprietary PLCs, I/O modules, SCADA software licenses, and associated engineering services. • The project is a sole-source procurement, and the only viable path to meet the government's needs is to procure controls from the incumbent manufacturer.
