Request for Proposal

SCADA Migration - RTU Mapping and Integration Services

February 9, 2026

Proposal

The City of St. Cloud, Minnesota Public Utilities Department is soliciting proposals from qualified

consultants to provide professional services to develop, document, validate, and implement a

Remote Telemetry Unit (RTU) Mapping Program to support the migration of existing field RTUs from

legacy Master Telemetry Units (MTUs) and Workstation/Human Machine Interface (HMI) systems

(“Old SCADA”) to the City’s new SCADA architecture, including upgraded HMIs and MTUs. The

intent of this project is to ensure continuity of operations, functional equivalency, and data

integrity throughout the migration process.

Background Information

The City of St. Cloud’s SCADA Systems communicates with the wastewater (sanitary/storm)

collections and water distribution remote sites. The entire network includes 8 water distribution

sites (Tanks, Flow Monitoring and Water Quality Sampling), 1 stormwater site, and 38 wastewater

sites (Lift Stations, Flumes/Flow Meters, Chemical Pre-Treatment), including wastewater collection

for the cities of St. Augusta, Sauk Rapids, Waite Park, Sartell, St. Joseph, and Foley.

Project Description

The RTU Mapping Program shall identify, document and map all existing RTU Input/Output (I/O)

points, communication parameters, protocols, addressing, scaling, alarm setpoints and

metadata necessary to achieve functional equivalency between the legacy and new SCADA

environments. For the purposes of this RFP, functional equivalency is defined as the ability of the

new SCADA system to provide the same monitoring, control, alarm, and reporting functionality

currently available in the legacy system. The program shall support systematic migration of RTU

point databases, tag structures, alarms, and historical data references while minimizing

operational disruption to Public Utilities facilities.
