This Performance Work Statement (PWS) outlines the requirements for replacing the antiquated process controls of the Naval Station Norfolk (NSN) Radioactive Liquid Waste (RLW) Processing System. The project involves removing existing equipment, including process control stations, PLC control panels, and tank level indicator control stations, and installing modernized programmable logic controllers (PLCs), wires, inlet/outlet cards, and human-machine interface (HMI) screens. The PWS details specific technical requirements for the new PLCs, memory, I/O characteristics, software, functions, alarm processing, and control panels, ensuring compliance with various industry standards. It also specifies requirements for workstation equipment, data communication, and factory testing. Contractor responsibilities include providing operation and maintenance manuals and adhering to material and equipment standards. NNSY responsibilities cover personnel escort, training, computer access, and oversight. Security requirements mandate DBIDS cards, Secret clearances for classified access, adherence to Privacy Act and CUI regulations, and restrictions on Portable Electronic Devices (PEDs) within controlled areas.
The Naval Station Norfolk (NSN) water processing system requires an upgrade from an outdated Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) to a system identical to one at Norfolk Naval Shipyard (NNSY). This 12-month project, with a 6-month extension option, will take place at NSN building CEP-198, excluding off-site prefabrication and software development. The contractor must adhere to numerous federal and local regulations, including those related to occupational safety, health, environmental protection, and radiological controls. NNSY will provide essential support, including utilities, system schematics, and personnel for escort and heavy lifts, and will oversee radiological activities. The contractor is responsible for all work, material procurement, disposal (including hazardous waste), project management, and reporting. Key requirements include comprehensive system assessment, design, hardware/software procurement, development, installation, testing, commissioning, documentation, and training for NNSY personnel. The contractor must also provide a pre-loaded laptop for system interface. Stringent personnel qualifications and adherence to electrical and hazardous energy control standards are mandated. Subcontracting requires prior approval.
