About this file
This is a Request for Proposals (RFP) for the fabrication and production of vacuum chambers for the LCLS-II-HE Collimators at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory. The procurement includes four different types of vacuum chambers to be delivered within 20 weeks after contract award. The basic requirements consist of one each of DSG-000105293 (PC1L1 Vacuum Chamber), DSG-000100582 (PC1L0 Vacuum Chamber), four units of DSG-000099431 (CHAMBER, HE COLIM 6.0CF), and two units of DSG-000095996 (CHAMBER, HE COLIM 4.5CF). Five optional line items are available for additional batches of the 6.0CF chambers for various beamlines (BCS Test Stopper, MFX and CXI, DXS, TXI, and MEC), with quantities ranging from one to nine units per option. All chambers must be blanked and backfilled with nitrogen, include fabrication per SLAC specifications, UHV cleaning, vacuum baking at 250°C for 48 hours minimum, and residual gas analysis testing at 150°C to meet SLAC vacuum policy requirements.
The RFP is issued by SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory (operated by Stanford University for the U.S. Department of Energy) with offers due by March 24, 2026, at 5:00 PM PDT. The procurement uses a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) evaluation methodology with technical evaluation factors addressing specification compliance, precision fabrication capability, quality control procedures, packaging and shipping, past performance (requiring minimum five years' experience manufacturing precision ultra-high vacuum components), and delivery schedule meeting the 20-week target. Business evaluation factors include financial standing (Dun & Bradstreet SER score of 6 or lower), compliance with SLAC terms and conditions, and pricing. Offerors must submit two volumes: Volume I (Technical Proposal, 100-page maximum) and Volume II (Business Proposal). The subcontract is firm fixed price with payment terms of Net 30. Subcontract Administrator is Angela M. Garcia (angelag@slac.stanford.edu, 650-926-5011). All suppliers must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) and comply with representations and certifications requirements, including E-Verify, Buy American Act certification, and various federal acquisition regulations incorporated by reference.
