*Amendment 1 - Questions 10 and 11 added under Questions For Industry Transformer Supply Multiple Award Contract (up to $500M capacity) THIS IS A SOURCES SOUGHT ANNOUNCEMENT ONLY. This notice does not constitute a commitment by the Government. All information submitted in response to this announcement is voluntary, and the Government will not pay for information requested nor will it compensate any respondent for any cost incurred in developing information provided to the Government. As part of its market research, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), is issuing this sources sought to seek out interested firms capable of providing various configurations of transformers. The Government may use the responses to this sources sought for information and planning purposes. Responses are requested regardless of business size. Potential Contract Capacity : If sufficient interest is demonstrated by industry in response to this sources sought the resultant multiple award contract vehicle may be used to supply more than $500M worth of transformers to multiple Federal entities. NAICS : The proposed NAICS code for this procurement is 335311 – Power, Distribution, and Specialty Transformer Manufacturing Size Standard : The small business size standard for NAICS Code 335311, as defined by the Small Business Administration (SBA), is a business with 800 employees or fewer. Anticipated Advertisement : FY26 Anticipated Period of Performance : Up to 10 years (Base of 5 years plus 5-year option period) Responses are requested regardless of business size. Requirement Background : USACE has identified a significant need to replace transformers at various hydropower plants over the coming decade and acknowledges there is a high demand on the large transformer manufacturing industry. USACE hydropower transformers are typically procured with funding from a Power Marketing Administration due to the role the transformer has in the supply of power to that organization. USACE Portland District transformers are typically funded by Bonneville Power Administration (BPA), which also funds the replacement of transformers at hydropower plants owned and maintained by the Department of Interior's Bureau of Reclamation (BOR), as well as those they own and maintain themselves. USACE Portland District is interested in establishing a contract vehicle which could address the requirements of at least the three aforementioned Federal entities to leverage its unique buying power. Other Power Marketing Administrations may also be supported by this tool. Most of the power transformers are step-up transformers to be used in direct connection with electrical power generators and will be subject to backfeed mode as defined in the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) Standard C57.116, Guide for Transformers Directly Connected to Generators. The other transformers are auto transformers connected to Generators. The goal is to create a Multiple Award Delivery Order Cont…
