Architect Engineering Services for the Electron Injector Complex Preliminary and Detailed Design
1. SCOPE
This Statement of Work (SOW) will be the basis for the procurement of Architectural/Engineering (A/E) design services to be used at the Electron-Ion Collider (EIC) at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) managed by Brookhaven Science Associates (BSA). This document outlines the Contractor’s responsibilities and obligations necessary for completing the requirements as set forth herein.
Synopsis Architectural/Engineering (A/E) design services are required to develop the preliminary and detailed designs, services and documents as well as to provide construction support services for the Electron-Ion Collider (EIC) Electron Injector Complex (EIN) Subproject. Designs shall include Infrastructure Systems, Structures and Components required to support the proposed new Electron Injector Complex.
The Construction Support Services are included as option work and will be awarded at the discretion of Brookhaven Science Associates (BSA).
The conceptual design has been completed and the conceptual design report, when combined with this Statement of Work (SOW), will serve as the basis of the A/E’s scope of services.
Project Background The Electron-Ion Collider (EIC) will be a particle accelerator that collides an electron beam with a beam of ions. It will produce comprehensive data on the internal structure of protons and nuclei to reveal unprecedented details of the arrangement and interactions of the quarks and gluons that make up the building blocks of nuclei.
The EIC will be built to leverage the existing Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) and its infrastructure. Enhancements to the infrastructure will be required to accommodate the planned new facilities. A significant enhancement will be the design and construction of the Electron Injector Complex to provide suitable beam parameters for use in the Electron-Ion Collider. The purpose of this project is to construct a 750MeV electron linear accelerator (LINAC) approximately 100 m in length, along with a rapid-cycling synchrotron (RCS) approximately 1500 m in circumference, consisting of two 130 m straight sections and end arcs with a bending radius of approximately 196 m. These structures are proposed to be constructed of conventional reinforced concrete and steel. Associated support buildings are planned to consist of two power supply and mechanical service buildings, radio-frequency klystron (power supply) building along and adjacent to the Linac, a laser room associated with the Linac and a cryogenic system with connection to the existing RHIC cryogenics system. Electrical power will be provided by an overhead line from the EIC distribution system.
EIC EIN Subproject Goals and Objectives The EIN ring tunnel comprises 12 key segments: Two main straight segments (D2 and H2) and ten smaller segments (A1, B1, B2, C1, D1, E1, F1, F2, G1, and H1). Major EIN facilities are sited next to the straight segments, while smaller support buildings are located near the smaller tunnel segments. The EIN subproject is intended to be operated with a schedule: 9 months on (Oct-Jun) and 3 months off (Jul-Sep).
The largest structure within the EIN Complex is the Rapid Cycling Synchrotron (RCS) Tunnel, which is directly interconnected with the LINAC Complex - a facility designed to accommodate the linear particle accelerator. The LINAC Complex located between H1 and H2 includes an Electron Gun Structure (GUN), LINAC Gallery, Bunch Accumulation Ring (BAR), Local Injection Control Room, and various supporting equipment rooms.
The second largest facility is the RF Complex, located at D2, houses the Radio Frequency (RF) Support Gallery, Kicker Power Supply equipment, Cryogenic Building, and other supporting infrastructure.
The project also includes expansion of the Medium Voltage infrastructure to accommodate new EIN power supply requirements.
EIC EIN Complex Design Background
The EIN Complex is designed to support high-intensity particle acceleration through a staged process that begins with a Linear Particle Accelerator (LINAC) and transitions into a circular synchrotron ring optimized for rapid cycling. The LINAC provides initial beam acceleration and accumulation, delivering electrons into the RCS for further acceleration to the desired energy levels.
The complex includes a network of interconnected facilities: the LINAC Complex, RF Complex, transfer lines, and the RCS tunnel organized in two straight and two curved sections of precast concrete segments. Straight sections of the tunnel are enlarged to accommodate critical systems such as injection and extraction equipment, RF cavities, and beam diagnostics. The curved sections are more compact, focused on guiding the beam along the ring path.
Supporting infrastructure includes Power Supply buildings, Radio Frequency Support Gallery buildings, Pumphouses, and other service buildings, all integrated with utility systems for cooling, cryogenics and electrical distribution.
Site grading differentiates between above-grade service buildings and below-grade beam enclosures to optimize shielding and operational efficiency.
The overall layout is driven by beam physics, operational safety, and maintenance access, with careful coordination between accelerator requirements, architectural design, and civil infrastructure. The facility is engineered for high reliability, longevity, flexibility, maintainability, efficient installation, and lifecycle cost.

The A/E shall prepare detailed drawings and comprehensive specifications using clear, plain language and consistent terminology to prevent misinterpretation, conflicts between drawings and specifications, and the need for frequent contractor Requests for Information (RFIs) or costly rework. The clarity and completeness of the plans and specifications must be the basis for accurate bidding (i.e., cost estimates and schedules) leading to fewer change orders and disputes during construction.
All design information shall be consistent and compatible across different disciplines (architectural, civil, structural, mechanical, electrical, etc.).
4.2.2 Quality Assurance Program
The A/E shall prepare a project-specific quality assurance (QA) plan and submit the plan to BSA for approval. The QA plan shall conform to the “Contractor Requirements Document” as defined in DOE Order 414.1E, Quality Assurance (available at http://www.directives.doe.gov) and describe the A/E’s QA program, including implementing procedures, to be implemented and maintained for the scope of services.
The purpose of the QA plan is to give the A/E’s QA requirements for the scope of services and describe how they will be satisfied. The goal is to assure that all aspects of this project are performed in a controlled manner, comply with applicable codes, and that all components and systems are designed and developed according to sound engineering standards, quality practices, and technical performance requirements for the project.
Design Effort Phase: Elements to be included during the design effort by the A/E are indicated below:
1. Review of proposed materials of construction and installed equipment for availability, economy, compatibility with other components, performance, and maintainability.
2. Continuous review of the design to ensure that this project can be constructed as designed using the most efficient available techniques within available funds and based on the proposed phased funding and phased construction schedule. Design review shall assess the operability of the project after completion.
3. Review for coordination of required elements and systems to ensure that the design reflects the latest approved version of the project scope description.
4. Establish and maintain a configuration control system to assure the design reflects the current approved scope and is not changed without BSA approval.
5. Submit the A/E’s project-specific QA plan and implementing procedures to BSA for review and approval prior to start of preliminary design. The A/E program must comply with applicable elements of the Quality Assurance Plan for the Electron-Ion Collider.

Figure 1: Location of Electron Injector Complex with LINAC and Rapid Cycling Synchrotron (EIN)
The current configuration for the Electron Injector Complex (EIN) is shown below.
N
Figure 2: Electron Injector Complex with LINAC and Rapid Cycling Synchrotron (EIN) Configuration
The above sketch was developed and contained in the Conceptual Design. Building sizes and geometry as shown in the Conceptual Design Report may change as the machine design matures. The A/E shall collaborate with BSA to develop the Preliminary Design. An iterative design process will be required throughout the Preliminary Design Process. However, it is the project goal to converge on the geometry and dimensions of the infrastructure elements by the completion of the Preliminary Design Phase.
Building Sizes The EIN will be built to leverage designs developed for the EIC project. Enhancements to the Infrastructure will be required to accommodate the planned facilities. BSA expects the A/E to follow the principles of “Value Engineering” throughout their design development (see section 8). That is, to achieve essential functions at the lowest cost with required performance, reliability, quality, maintainability, environmental protection and safety.
The Square footage as indicated in the table below is anticipated to be approximate. The building footprints were based on similar functionality for the main EIC Project buildings. However, more detailed A/E design required under this contract will dictate the final configurations. The A/E shall include in the design tunnel penetrations for RF transmission waveguide, cooling piping, electrical power (AC and DC) conduits and cooling to compensate for heat dissipation of conductors or waveguide Building Sizes (Square foot)

3. A means of providing interior climate control within the RCS tunnel is required to satisfy equipment operational requirements and ensure operational stability. During Preliminary Design, anticipated thermal loads, equipment environmental tolerances, heat rejection characteristics, and relevant ambient boundary conditions shall be analyzed to define the required interior environmental parameters (e.g., temperature range, allowable gradients, humidity limits, and stability criteria). The resulting environmental criteria and associated thermal loads shall be allocated to the project mechanical cooling systems, including HVAC systems and process water systems, as applicable. These requirements shall be formally documented and incorporated into the project Basis of Design (BOD). Completion of the design of the RCS Tunnel HVAC system shall be completed by the A/E included in Detailed Design
