Quick Summary

This is an Award Notice for the emergency diagnostic and repair of an Eaton 30KVA Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) at the Hoover Dam Powerplant. The Department of the Interior, Bureau of Reclamation, issued a noncompetitive sole source solicitation for this critical requirement, primarily targeting Eaton due to specialized needs, but also considering responses from any responsible source. The solicitation closed on February 27, 2026, with an estimated award date in March 2026.

Purpose & Background

The Bureau of Reclamation, Lower Colorado Basin Region, required urgent repair services for a failed Eaton 30KVA UPS unit (Model 9390-40) at the Hoover Dam Powerplant. This UPS supports critical loads and ensures continuous powerplant operations. The requirement was advertised as a noncompetitive sole source solicitation due to the urgency, the need for specialized OEM parts, and certified technicians from Eaton, as market research indicated Eaton was the only vendor capable of meeting these specific and immediate needs.

Scope of Work

The awarded contract covers comprehensive repair services, including troubleshooting, diagnostics, disassembly, component replacement, cleaning, calibration, function testing, start-up, and commissioning of the Eaton AZ 30KVA UPS. All work must comply with Eaton manufacturer procedures, and only new, original equipment manufacturer (OEM) parts from Eaton were to be utilized. A final itemized report detailing work completed and commissioning results is required. The work was to be performed at the Hoover Dam Powerplant during scheduled equipment outages, with deliveries to the Hoover Dam Central Warehouse.

Solicitation Process & Evaluation
