1.0 INTRODUCTION

The Water Replenishment District of Southern California (WRD or District) is seeking responses from software vendors to furnish Computerized Maintenance Management System (CMMS) software suitable for managing the physical assets the District.

This Request for Information (RFI) generally describes the project milestones, the software vendor selection process, and the minimum information that must be included in the response. This RFI will be used to develop a shortlist of CMMS products for which WRD will consider for purchase and implementation. Shortlisted vendors will be provided with a Request for Proposal (RFP) that will include representative workflows and demonstration scripts that will be used to make a final selection.

1.1 Background

The Water Replenishment District of Southern California is a special district established in 1959 under the California Water Code. WRD manages the groundwater resources of the Central and West Coast Basins, which supply water to about four million people over a service area that covers 420 square miles in southern Los Angeles County. WRD is responsible for maintaining adequate groundwater supplies, preventing seawater intrusion into the underground aquifers, and protecting groundwater quality against contamination.

1.2 Objectives

The intent of this RFI is to solicit information regarding CMMS software packages that will meet the needs of WRD’s future asset management program. Those software vendors that are selected from all of the responses to the RFI will then have the opportunity to respond to an RFP which will include a full cost proposal for software acquisition and workflow scripted software demonstration.

1.3 Purpose

The CMMS is intended to be used to for the Goldsworthy Desalter, Leo J. Vander Lans Advanced Water Treatment Facility (AWTF), production wells, Groundwater Monitoring Well network, and future facilities including the planned Phase 2 - Goldsworthy Desalter Expansion Project, and Groundwater Reliability Improvement Program (GRIP) related projects including the Advanced Water Treatment Facility and Turnout Structure Nos. 001B and 002. The CMMS will serve as an operational and management tool for managing work orders and their transactional workflows, including material management, backlog management, and preventive maintenance management. The CMMS will be the primary tool used to improve maintenance productivity for WRD.

WRD is also interested in learning if the CMMS or a partnered product can provide advanced asset management analytics and decision support including, but not limited to the ability to perform predictive asset analysis such as asset deterioration, optimized decision making to extend asset life, assist with generation of capital planning projects, run ‘what if’ scenarios such as estimating future replacement costs based on varying service levels and/or funding allocations, and other similar scenarios.

It is recognized that a single CMMS may not provide the advanced asset management capabilities but WRD is interested to know what other third party partnered solutions may exist that can be integrated with the CMMS and overall asset management program.

(4)

1. Work Orders: Planning, scheduling, assigning personnel or crews, reserving materials, recording costs, and tracking relevant information, such as the problem/malfunction cause, downtime involved, and recommendations for future action. Receiving work requests and customer complaints and, when appropriate, converting work requests or customer complaints into work orders.

2. Preventive Maintenance: Triggering work orders based on a variety of triggers to perform inspections, lubrication, cleaning, overhauls, etc. Creating step-by-step instructions or checklists, maintaining lists of materials required per type of activity/job, and other pertinent details.

3. Asset Knowledge Management: Recording data about assets including locations, specifications, construction history, warranty information, service contracts, spare parts, purchase date, expected lifetime, maintenance history, failure history, and other information helpful to work order and asset life cycle management.

4. Inventory Control: Management of spare parts, tools, and other materials including the reservation of materials for particular jobs, tracking where materials are stored, determining when more materials should be purchased, tracking shipment receipts, and tracking inventory.

5. Interface/ integration with other systems. The following schematic shows how the CMMS is intended to fit in the overall information systems (current and possible future such as SCADA inputs, GIS asset register and WRD Portal) as indicated in the following diagram:
