HomeMy WebLinkAboutHDR_Bozeman SCADA On-callFebruary 252021 Statement of Qualifications SCADA On-Call City of Bozeman February 25, 2021 Zeb Breuckman, PE, SCADA Manager City of Bozeman P.O. Box 1230 Bozeman, MT 59771-1230 RE: SCADA On-Call Services Dear Mr. Breuckman, A city’s SCADA system is without question both the brains and nervous system of its infrastructure. These systems play a major “behind the scenes” role in water and wastewater conveyance and treatment processes, as well as critical government functions and infrastructure, such as security and lighting. Further, these systems do more than just start and stop equipment, but instead can be used to optimize a process to save energy, improvement treatment performance, etc. It is crucial that the team involved in working on these systems for the City of Bozeman, not only have a vast amount of experience with this type of work, but also have an exceptional overall working knowledge of the City’s Water Reclamation Facility and Water Treatment Plant, along with a sound understanding of the operations required to support both. As will be demonstrated in our proposal, our team provides a process-centric view to the City of Bozeman SCADA Program. In other words, HDR will keep future process operation and optimization requirements in mind when recommending and implementing any future SCADA improvements that may be performed through the On-Call Services. Our understanding of the long-term vision will be coupled with our technical experts that have a demonstrated ability to deliver successful projects but also provide other key benefits to the City: • Past Experience is Indicative of Future Results: Most members of our project team played integral roles in the recent successful projects at the City of Bozeman’s WRF and WTP. In addition, our SCADA team has taken the time to educate themselves on your system and to better understand what your future programming needs may be. Without a doubt, there is not a team more familiar with the City of Bozeman’s systems than HDR. • Integration with Process Controls: In addition to our SCADA experience, we are wastewater and water treatment process experts that have been actively involved in the upgrade of most of your infrastructure in the last 10 years. Being able to “speak both languages” will bridge the gap between operations and the technical implementation needed for the City of Bozeman. The outcome will give the City of Bozeman the ability to have control over their treatment processes and be poised for compliance with future regulations. • Local Team with Proven History of Fast Response: Finally, our team members have a proven history of quickly responding to problems with the City’s instrumentation and control systems. Their familiarity with these systems, proven client service, and location is just another example of why our team is best suited to meet the City of Bozeman’s needs. We are pleased to submit our qualifications for the Bozeman SCADA On-Call Professional Engineering Services and look forward to the opportunity to work with you on this project. If you have any questions or comments, please contact us at 406.577.5026. Sincerely, HDR Engineering, Inc.

Through this process we have become one of Bozeman’s preferred consultants for infrastructure related improvements for wastewater treatment, water treatment, and lift stations which comprise the majority of the City’s SCADA system. Through this past and future work, HDR has designed and implemented a significant amount of SCADA infrastructure, established the ‘inside the fence’ standards for SCADA at the Sourdough Water Treatment Plant and at the Water Reclamation Facility, and we sincerely hope to be providing these same services far into the future. Our proposal aims to answer the question ‘Why Hire HDR.’ Despite having a qualified, cost-effective team combined with an intimate knowledge of all of your facilities, HDR provides continuity between the past and future SCADA improvements and the on-going upgrade of existing SCADA systems…a benefit that no other firm can provide. HDR’s National Expertise Provided Through Local Staff results in Unmatched, Cost-effective ServiceHDR’s Montana SCADA team not only provides support to our SCADA experts around the country, but also serve as the go to SCADA engineers for numerous communities in Montana, both large and small, including Bozeman, Kalispell, Missoula, and Billings, as well as Phillipsburg, Hamilton, Stevensville, Superior and Polson. We are the firm of choice for these communities because we are able to bring a national perspective and provide local service at local rates. HDR’s Past Bozeman Experience Proves our Ability to Meet Schedule and Budget RequirementsIn this situation we feel that past performance is indicative of future results. HDR has a proven history of time and time again providing world class engineering solutions both on time and within the City’s budget. Our local SCADA staff provide services to communities as large as Billings and as small as Superior which proves that we have the ability to address complex SCADA issues while working within very tight budgets as is often the case with small communities. HDR’s Strong SCADA Presence in Montana Results in Quick Response with a Deep BenchWith electrical and SCADA staff in Bozeman, Billings, Butte, and Missoula we can respond quickly to address your needs, even emergency situations. Further, our staff of six Montana-Based SCADA staff, supported by a team of over 30 SCADA experts around the country, means that our workload never impacts our ability to provide world-class service. Integrating Process Knowledge with SCADA Implementation Optimizes System PerformanceOne of the many advantages of the HDR team is the fact that we have staff leading this project, Cora Revis and Jarrett Moran, that have an intimate knowledge of both the existing processes and the SCADA systems that control them. At the end of the day, SCADA systems simply serve as a tool to enhance the operations of the water systems or wastewater facilities. Every tool is only as good as the person who uses it. An understanding how SCADA works combined with how SCADA can enhance or optimize a process is a critical benefit with respect to this project…a benefit that cannot be realized from someone that only has a SCADA background. As our Project Principal and Project Manager, Cora and Jarrett’s process experience and understanding of how SCADA impacts the process, combined with Jarrett’s past public works background, will provide the nexus to SCADA upgrades resulting in meaningful improvements to the processes they control. With advancements in technology and evolving business needs, successful implementation and maintenance of SCADA systems is a continuous process.
