About this file

This document is an Amendment to Solicitation (Amendment No. 04) for the Tunnel Transfer Line Fabrication project (RFP# 370471-DSF) issued by Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory. The amendment provides responses to seven technical questions from potential bidders, clarifies subcontracting allowances, and indicates that Fermilab will provide specific components like check valves and a 12-PIN hermetic connector. Two additional drawing files (F10241037_DWG and F10252563_DWG) have been uploaded to the shared files, and bidders are instructed to acknowledge this amendment prior to the opening date of September 19, 2025. The amendment allows subcontracting of work, with the requirement that subcontractors meet all Statement of Work requirements, and suggests that bidders propose their own delivery schedule which will be evaluated as part of the overall proposal.
