Statement of Work for the Forward Hadronic Calorimetry SiPMs

1 SCOPE

This Statement of Work (SOW) will be the basis for the procurement of Silicon Photomultipliers (SiPMs) for the longitudinally segmented Forward Hadronic Calorimeter (LFHCal) of the Electron-Ion Collider (EIC) General Purpose detector to be built in the EIC interaction region IP- 6 (Experimental Hall of the EIC Detector) 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.

1.1 Background

The EIC Project will design, build, and install the accelerator hardware for a new electron storage ring, an electron injector, and modifications to the hadron ring required to produce an electron-ion collider and infrastructure. It will include one interaction region at IP-6 and one detector. The facility is designed to meet requirements to ensure high reliability and availability for the user program.

The EIC physics detector will provide an almost 4π coverage in tracking, particle identification, electromagnetic and hadronic calorimetry. The hadronic calorimeter in the forward (hadron-going) endcap (LFHCal) is of a particular importance, to measure highly energetic particle jets with a sufficient energy resolution, isolate jet neutral components (neutrons and KL particles), complement tracking and electromagnetic calorimetry in particle flow algorithms, and be an integral part of the detector solenoid flux return path.

The LFHCal makes use of SiPM-on-tile technology, where every one of the sixty-five scintillating tiles composing a calorimeter tower has a dimple for its own Silicon Photomultiplier sensor. The total number of SiPMs required in accordance with this Statement of Work is 341,380, with an option for an additional 257,874 SiPMs. The 341,380 SiPMs are of type (a) with an active area of

1.3 mm x 1.3 mm. Of the 257,874 SiPMs, 173,842 are of type (a), and 84,032 are of type (b) with an active area of 3 mm x 3 mm.

Early start of procurement of these sensors is of a paramount importance for EIC, since it allows one to start the calorimeter tower assembly shortly after the Department of Energy (DOE) CD-3 approval, and therefore finish the assembly and installation in the EIC interaction region at the Experimental Hall of the EIC Detector (IP-6) in 2029, on time for the solenoid acceptance tests.

2 APPLICABLE DOCUMENTS

In the event of a conflict between the Technical Documentation and this SOW, the Contractor shall immediately notify the BSA Contractual Representative who will in each instance determine which document takes precedence and advise the Contractor accordingly. Failure to notify BSA of a document conflict shall not relieve the Contractor’s responsibility to ensure full compliance to all requirements.

The following documents are an integral part of the SOW; the applicable revision level will be the latest that is in effect at the time of award:

Records verifying the configuration of each item shall be maintained for a minimum of five (5) years from the date of acceptance of the equipment by BSA.

For changes in configuration, a request for change approval shall be submitted to BSA for consideration. Changes in configuration may be made by the Contractor only with the written approval of BSA.

4.3 Responsibility for Subcontractor

It is the responsibility of the Contractor to flow down and impose applicable technical and quality assurance requirements upon their contractors and subcontractors. BSA reserves the right to disapprove, in writing, any contractor or subcontractor.

4.4 Responsibility for Conformance

The Contractor is responsible to provide items which conform to the requirements of the PO/Contract regardless of any assessments, surveillances, inspections and/or tests by BSA or its representatives at either the Contractor’s or BSA’s facility. The Contractor is responsible for notifying the BSA Contractual Representative of any recalls or alerts associated with this PO/Contract.

4.5 Measuring and Test Equipment (M&TE) Calibration

The Contractor shall calibrate any M&TE used in the fulfillment of the PO/Contract requirements against certified standards that are traceable to national standards such as the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), or an international standard, or a physical constant. The Contractor shall notify BSA of any condition found during the calibration, servicing or repair of measuring and test equipment that can affect the end item requirements.

4.6 Inspections and Test Requirements

Unless otherwise specified in the PO/Contract, the Contractor shall be responsible for the performance of all inspections and tests specified herein. Except as otherwise specified in the PO/Contract, the Contractor shall utilize facilities suitable for the performance of the inspection and test requirements, specified herein, which are acceptable to BSA. BSA reserves the right to re-perform any of the inspections and/or tests set forth in this document or referenced specifications where deemed necessary to assure that Equipment conforms to prescribed requirements at no cost to the Contractor. BSA and/or their representative shall have the option to witness all of the tests defined in this SOW.

4.6.1 Acceptance Testing

The systems shall be tested by the Contractor at the Contractor’s facility, the Contractor’s subcontractor’s facility, or a pre-approved BSA collaborator prior to shipment, using an ATP (as noted in Section 3.2.2) generated by the Contractor and approved in writing by BSA. BSA or its designee retains the right to witness all testing. Final acceptance of the units shall take place following the successful completion of final testing at BNL. The time period for the final testing at BNL shall be within 90 days after receipt of the units at BNL.

4.6.2 Approval for Production

After BSA Technical Representative acceptance of the program plan, manufacturing/inspection/test plan, and ATP, the units required by the PO/Contract shall be produced by the Contractor and the Contractor’s suppliers using the same design, materials, processes, methods and tooling described in the aforementioned plan(s). Any changes must have prior written approval from BSA. If production of the SiPMs is not approved by BSA, there shall be no further cost to BSA.

4.7 Repairs

If failures occur or repairs are required to an assembly or any component during manufacturing or testing that affects form, fit, function, reliability, safety, or interchangeability, the process shall stop and BSA shall be immediately notified. Failure to provide SiPMs that satisfy the technical specifications outlined in EIC-DET-SPC-019 and all referenced documents will result in replacement of SiPMs at the cost of the Contractor.

4.8 Failure Reporting, Analysis and Corrective Action

The Contractor shall maintain a failure reporting, analysis, and corrective action system which shall, at a minimum, evaluate, analyze, and correct failures occurring during end item acceptance testing and inspection. The results of all failure evaluations and analyses shall be documented and available for review by the BSA Contractual Representative.

7 VALUE ENGINEERING

The Contractor is encouraged to make recommendations for changes that might lead to an improvement in performance, reliability, quality, safety, or reduction in cost. Simplicity in operation, ease of maintenance, and an improvement in the performance and reliability of the specific functions beyond the requirements of this specification are objectives which shall be considered in the production. Where it appears a substantial improvement in simplicity of design, performance, ease of maintenance or reliability will result from the use of materials, parts, and processes other than those specified, it is desirable that their use be investigated. When investigations point to advantages that may be realized, the recommendation for change shall be presented to BSA for review.
