Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) SCADA System – Collection System
I. INTRODUCTION
The City of Fernley (City) is soliciting Statements of Qualifications (SOQs) from qualified consulting firms to provide professional SCADA engineering, integration, and construction support services for the City’s Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system. This RFQ focuses specifically on all wastewater-related SCADA components located outside the WWTP, including remote lift stations, NE tank, and others.
The intent of this RFQ is to identify a qualified consultant with demonstrated experience in municipal wastewater SCADA systems to assist the City with system assessment, architecture development, implementation planning, procurement support, and construction-phase services.
II. PROJECT BACKGROUND
The City’s wastewater system includes multiple lift stations that rely on aging and outdated SCADA equipment and configurations. Much of the existing infrastructure has exceeded its intended service life and no longer meets current operational, cybersecurity, or reliability standards, limiting system performance and long-term scalability. To address these issues, the City seeks to modernize and standardize its SCADA framework to provide a secure, reliable, and scalable system that integrates all off-plant wastewater assets. This updated system must be compatible with the existing WWTP SCADA system and fully compatible with a new SCADA system planned for implementation at the WWTP in the near future.
This project will establish consistent SCADA standards, address existing operational deficiencies, improve overall system reliability, and provide a clear implementation plan that defines how the City will deploy the SCADA system in the near term and will allow it to expand in the future without rework or major disruption.
