Solicitation Number: N62478CON31FY2610 Notice Type: Sources Sought Code 7G21 – IT AND TELECOM – NETWORK: DIGITAL NETWORK PRODUCTS (HARDWARE AND PERPETUAL LICENSE SOFTWARE) NAICS: 334513 – Instruments and Related Products Manufacturing for Measuring, Displaying and Controlling Industrial Process Variables Synopsis: The Government intends to procure, under only one responsible source, where no other suppliers or service will satisfy the agency

requirements. The Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command, Hawaii (NAVFAC Hawaii) is conducting market research to determine if other potential products/services can provide for a Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) and Input/Output (I/O) Module that has the equal performance and listing/approval

requirements as the Allen-Bradley ControlLogix 5580 (1756-L83E) PLC and Allen-Bradley Flex 5000 IO module (5094-) as well as the Rockwell Automation programming software Studio 5000, all manufactured by Rockwell Automation Inc., 1201 South 2nd Street, Milwaukee, WI, 53204-2496. The alternate product/service must meet the following

requirements/specifications: 1. The existing Allen-Bradley MicroLogix 1400 PLCs installed throughout portions of the Fort Kamehameha WWTP SCADA system are reaching mature lifecycle status. As part of the long term SCADA modernization effort, selection of a compatible new PLC platform is required. The proposed products shall be compatible with the cybersecurity and standardization

requirements for the existing SCADA system. The cybersecurity Approval To Operate (ATO) is granted based on the existing SCADA system. Therefore, the proposed products shall be able to integrate and communicate with existing Allen-Bradley PLCs and I/O modules on the existing Fort Kamehameha WWTP SCADA system without additional hardware or software added to the existing PLCs and I/O modules. The system shall also provide a fully redundant supervisory control system to maintain continuous WWTP operation during a controller failure. The system must maintain coordinated controller logic, process data, and distributed I/O status during failover. The existing legacy panels shall also be integrated directly into the new supervisory architecture over the existing EtherNet/IP network via existing fiber optic connections. 2. Hardware: All process related functions, calculations, timers, and numeric manipulations must be accomplished in the PLC hardware and not in the HMI. 3. The PLC system must be microprocessor-based, capable of receiving binary and analog inputs and, through programming via the manufacturer’s standard development software, must be able to control binary and analog output functions, perform data handling operations, and communicate with external devices. The platforms must meet the

requirements of Class A computing devices, comply with 47 CFR 15, and withstand conducted susceptibility tests as outlined in NEMA ICS 1, NEMA ICS 2, NEMA ICS 3, and IEEE C37.90.1. The PLC hardware must function properly at operating temperatures between 32 and 122 degrees F at 5 to 95 percent relative humidity non-condensing. The hardware must tolerate storage temperatures between minus 40 and plus 140 degrees F at 5 to 95 percent relative humidity non-condensing. 4. Modular PLC: The PLC must be based on a modular, field-expandable design allowing the system to be tailored to the process control application. The system must be expandable through the use of additional hardware and user software. As a minimum, the main PLC chassis must include a mounting backplane, a power supply module, a central processing unit (CPU) module, and Ethernet communications. Distributed/remote I/O must utilize industrial Ethernet adapters and modular I/O terminal bases. The modules must be grouped together in mounting racks or cabinets. The backplanes and terminal bases must provide the communications mechanism to fully integrate the individual modules. Modules other than remote I/O must plug directly into the backplane. Wire connectors between modules are strictly prohibited except for standard Ethernet expansion between backplanes. The system configuration must support Removal and Insertion Under Power (RIUP), allowing for the removal and/or installation of modules while the system is energized. 5. Central Processing Unit (CPU) Module: The CPU module must be a self-contained, microprocessor-based unit providing network time synchronization, scanning, application program execution, storage of application programs, storage of numerical values related to the application process and logic, I/O bus traffic control, peripheral and external device communications, and embedded self-diagnostics. The scan time must be 100 milliseconds or better (capable of sub-millisecond ranges depending on logic size), ensuring abundant processing capacity including spare I/O channels. 7. Communications Module: The communications architecture must allow peer-to-peer communication with other PLCs and central/remote workstations using embedded Gigabit industrial Ethernet ports on the CPU and the remote I/O adapters. The communication network must utilize the manufacturer's standard industrial protocol over standard Ethernet architecture. The network must allow programming of the PLC to be done locally through a laptop computer or remotely from the central station or workstation via the standard programming software. 8. Power Supply Module: One or more power supply modules must be provided as necessary to power other modules installed in the same cabinet. Main chassis power supplies must plug directly into the backplane. Auxiliary power supplies may be used to supply power to remote I/O cabinets or distributed modules. Power supply modules must use AC power with a nominal voltage of 120 VAC plus or minus 5 percent. Modules must monitor incoming line voltage, provide over-current/over-voltage protection, and ensure a safe, orderly shutdown if voltage falls out of range. Modules must withstand a power loss for a minimum of 20 milliseconds while remaining in operation and providing adequate power to all connected modules. Each power supply module must be provided with an on-off switch integral to the module. If the manufacturer's standard power supply module is not provided with an integral switch, a miniature toggle-type switch must be installed near the PLC and clearly labeled. Power supply modules must feature indicating LED lights that remain lit to confirm proper operating status. 9. Input/Output (I/O) Modules: The distributed I/O modules must be self-contained, microprocessor-based units that provide an interface to field devices. Each module must contain visual LED indicators to display the on-off and fault status of individual inputs or outputs. Each I/O channel must be protected against reversal of signal polarity. Analog inputs and analog outputs must feature configurable per-channel 'open circuit, short circuit, and out of range' detection. 10. Program Storage/Memory
