## Description

**Update:** 03/23/2026 NAICS Code Updated to 335311 and proposal due date extended to 07 April 2026

Background USACE is seeking information from interested and qualified contractors regarding potential modernization of excitation systems at Fort Peck Dam, a remote hydroelectric facility located on the Missouri River near Glasgow, Montana. The facility consists of two powerhouses with a total of five generating units. Existing excitation systems present reliability and supportability concerns due to aging equipment, partial legacy upgrades, and obsolescence of key control components.

Powerhouse 1 – Units 1–3 Existing digital excitation regulator hardware remains serviceable. Front-end excitation controls, field breakers, and operator interface components are obsolete and/or experiencing reliability issues. The Government is evaluating a targeted excitation system modernization approach, which may include replacement of failing or obsolete front-end components while reusing existing regulator hardware and cubicles, with modifications as required.

Powerhouse 2 – Units 4–5 Existing excitation systems include legacy components operating beyond their recommended design life. The Government is evaluating a full excitation system replacement for these units, which may include removal of existing equipment and installation of new digital static excitation systems. This Sources Sought notice is issued solely for market research purposes to assess industry capability, interest, and potential acquisition strategies. It does not constitute a solicitation.
