Agenda Statement
Meeting Date: February 8, 2021
To: City Council
Through: Norm Regis, Acting City Manager
From: Rob Montgomery, Utility Director, Electric Department
Agenda Item: Enter into an agreement with Electric Power Systems in an amount not -to -
exceed $53,478 to procure, configure and install two new SCADA
servers to replace the existing servers at City of Seward's Fort
Raymond Substation Power Plant. The amount includes $I,488 to add
updated SCADA graphic capabilities to mimic Ft. Raymond's capacitor
bank system and another $2,073 for a cabinet to house the server.
The City of Seward owns, operates and maintains a backup generation facility. This facility has
six diesel fired EMD type generators. The computer servers that provide the SCADA controls
system for the power plant are I 1 years old with the last software update done in 20I5.
While the existing servers are still operational and have only had a few minor issues over the
last few years, it is important to upgrade the server hardware, operating systems, and SCADA
software due to the age of the servers. The servers currently sit inside of the Dial House and have
been subject to dust and other conditions that are not optimal for server operations. The servers
are still running older versions of Microsoft operating systems.
The replacement servers will be procured and configured by EPS in Anchorage. The new
servers will run Windows Server 2016 with current versions of Wonderware Intouch, Kepware
KEPServerEX, Canary Labs Trending, and Historian. One server will also be installed with a
virtual machine (VM) of Windows 10 with the current version of Proficy Machine Edition for the
PLC and Microsoft Office software.
A SCADA engineer will travel to Seward from Anchorage to install, copy historical files to the
new servers, and verify operation of all the human machine interfaces (HMI's) throughout the
power plant. The new servers will initially run in parallel with the existing servers so that power
plant operations are not affected. It is assumed that the SCADA engineer will be on the site for
two full days.
INTENT: To authorize the City Manager to approve a purchase order with Electric Power
Systems (EPS) in the amount of $53,478 to procure, configure and install two new SCADA servers
to replace the existing servers at City of Seward's Fort Raymond Substation Power Plant

Subject: Fort Raymond Substation Power Plant SCADA Server Upgrade
Mr. Borgeson/i Unrein,
The following is an estimate from Electric Power Systems Inc, (EPS) to procure, configure and install two
new SCADA servers to replace the existing servers at City of Seward's Fort Raymond Substation Power
Plaint. The total estimate for the project is $53,478, The servers were originally installed in 20110. The
software was updated in 2015 during the generator and #5 upgrade project, and the RAM memory
was upgraded on both servers. But the rest of the server hardware was not upgraded. While the existing
servers are still operational and have only had a few minor issues over the last few years, it is
recommended to upgrade the server hardware, operating systems, and SCADA software due to the age
of the servers. The servers are still running older versions of Microsoft operating systems.
The replacement servers will be procured and configured by EPS in Anchorage. The new servers will be
rack mount servers with Windows Server 2016 with current versions of Wonderware Intouch, Kepware
KEPServerEX, and Canary Labs Trending and Historian. One server will also be installed with a virtual
machine (VM) of Windows 10 with the current version of Proficy Machine Edition for the PLC software
and Microsoft Office. A Tripp Lite 24U floor enclosure server cabinet will be provided for the servers. The
enclosure includes built-in fans and filters to provide better cooling and protection from dust.
A SCADA engineer will travel to Seward from Anchorage for installation, copy historical files to the new
servers and verify operation of all of the human machine interfaces (HMI's) throughout the power plant.
The new servers will initially run in parallel with the existing servers so that power plant operations are not
affected. It is assumed that the SCADA engineer will be on the site for two full days.
