Contract source

Description

The City of Spokane’s Solid Waste Disposal Department solicited and awarded a contract for annual ultrasonic thickness (UT) testing of boiler and auxiliary system tubes at its Waste‑to‑Energy Facility. The work is performed during two scheduled plant outages (Oct 2022 and Apr 2023) and requires a five‑person crew (project manager/data manager plus four UT technicians) operating four 12‑hour shifts. The vendor must provide on‑site daily printed data sheets, a final field draft map of all inspected areas, and coordinate with the City’s maintenance supervisor at least one month prior to each outage. No specific budget or vendor name is disclosed in the provided documents. The contract runs from 1 Oct 2022 to 31 Oct 2024 with up to three one‑year renewal options. • Scope: Ultrasonic thickness inspection of super‑heater, economizer, water‑wall, generator pendants, deaerator, spray‑dryer absorber walls, etc. • Deliverables: Daily printed data sheets, final hard‑copy field draft map; no off‑site written report required. • Requirements: Vendor must hold Washington State business license, have ≥5 years UT experience, and personnel must hold ASNT or AWS certifications.

Contract value

$150,000

No explicit contract dollar amount is disclosed. Based on the scope (two yearly outages, a 5‑person crew, 12‑hour shifts, specialized UT equipment, travel and overhead), a typical industry rate for qualified ultrasonic technicians is roughly $100‑$150 per hour, with a project manager at $150‑$200 per hour. Assuming 5 technicians + manager ≈ $650/hour total, each 12‑hour shift costs about $7,800; four shifts per outage ≈ $31,200; two outages per year ≈ $62,400 annually. Over the base period (≈2 years) this totals ≈ $125,000. Adding travel, administrative overhead, and a contingency margin brings the estimate to roughly $150,000. This ball‑park figure aligns with similar municipal UT contracts for comparable sized waste‑to‑energy facilities.
