The Project will be completed in three phases including a data driven system evaluation of the District's pump station assets and operations, hydraulic modeling of existing and proposed operations, and a final report that includes an implementation plan for improvements to increase overall efficiency and health of the system. The following list is a synopsis of tasks to be
completed as part of the project. The District encourages the Consultant to provide recommendations to enhance the proposed tasks below to optimize the conclusions of the proposed analysis.
Phase 1 - System Data Evaluations
1. Pump Evaluations (Run time, Maintenance History, Age)
2. Pump Curve Evaluations (BEP vs Flow Data)
3. Energy Consumption Evaluations
4. Flow Data Evaluations (Winter, Summer, & Shoulder Months)
5. Improvement Recommendations
6. Technical Memorandum (TM) #1 - Pump Station Optimization Results and Recommendations Phase 2 - Systemwide Evaluation
1. Hydraulic Modeling
a. Existing Conditions
b. Phase 1 Improvement Recommendations
c. Pressure Zone Modifications
d. Reservoir Management
2. Modeling Results Evaluation (System health, Energy Efficiencies and Costs, Water Quality/Age)
3. TM #2 - Hydraulic Results, Comparisons, and Recommendations Phase 3 - Conclusions and Recommendations (Draft and Final Report)
1. Summation of Phase #1&2
2. Conclusions of Phase #1&2
3. Recommendations (Pump Stations, Pressure Zones, Reservoir Management)
4. Probable Cost Estimates and ROI for Improvements
5. Implementation Plan for Improvements Interested consultants are encouraged to develop a scope of work that addresses the District's needs and provides value and innovation. Optional tasks recommended by the consulting firm to enhance the work product should also be included in the proposal and shall be clearly identified as optional items. Fully describe any exceptions to the anticipated scope as outlined in the RFP. Identify information needs or work that the consultant expects to be completed by District staff. If there are no expectations of District staff effort listed for a task, the District will expect the task to be completed without any District staff time. The consulting firm selected for this Project will be required to provide the necessary equipment, materials, and labor to complete the following services. Question Deadline 07/01/2024
