Summary
This Request For Proposal (RFP) is issued by the South Dakota Science and Technology Authority (SDSTA) for bi-annual wire rope Non-Destructive Test (NDT) inspection services for Sanford Underground Research Facility (SURF) and the evolving operations. An individual firm will be selected for a fixed price contract based on the total of the quantities and unit costs listed on the statement of work document, demonstrated competence, and qualifications for the required work.
SDSTA is a quasi-governmental agency established by the State of South Dakota in 2004 to operate and manage SURF at the former historic Homestake Gold mine in Lead, SD. This facility has been and continues to be rehabilitated and developed to host cutting-edge research across multiple disciplines, including physics, geology, biology, and engineering. Our mission is to advance world-class science and inspire learning across generations. SDSTA’s standard procedure is to perform Bi-Annual Magnetic NDT Wire Rope inspections on the active length of the eight (8) regular hoisting ropes in the Spring and Fall of each year, and to inspect the drum ends each Fall. Testing will occur in March and September unless mutually agreed upon otherwise.
