Mission Support Alliance has issued a request for proposals (RFP) for a subcontractor to build a new water treatment facility on the Central Plateau at the Energy Department’s Hanford Site in Washington state.
In a June 2 notice posted on a federal procurement website, the Leidos-led site support services vendor said bids are due by 4 p.m. Pacific time on July 13. Firms planning to bid should notify Contract Specialist Angie Gagnon by June 8 via email at [email protected].
In April, MSA sought expressions for interest on building the new 10,000-square-foot microfiltration membrane water treatment plant that will be located in the 200 West Area of Hanford, about 29 miles north of the city of Richland.
The new plant will replace the existing facility built in the 1940s in the same area within the Central Plateau. It will have a capacity of 3.5 million gallons per day, enough to supply potable water to all users on the Central Plateau, including fire protection and nuclear facilities, MSA said in procurement documents.
Testing and commissioning of the new facility are scheduled to start in early 2022. For a brief period, both plants will be operational, MSA has said. The old plant will be retired and eventually decommissioned at some point after the new one is operating.
A mandatory preproposal conference and site walkthrough will be scheduled at a later date, according to the RFP. The award will be made to the applicant submitting the lowest evaluated price that meets all requirements of the solicitation.
