About this opportunity

Argonne National Laboratory, operating under the Department of Energy Office of Science, is seeking to procure a broadband microwave system designed for integration into roll-to-roll coating pilot systems as part of the METALLIC project aimed at developing domestic critical minerals and materials supply chains. The procurement includes a customized microwave unit with specific technical requirements such as a 350 mm wide web passage chamber, heating zone length over 900 mm, C-band solid state power amplifier, and associated delivery, installation, commissioning, and operational training services. Vendors must submit firm fixed price quotations in USD using appropriate Incoterms, complete comprehensive representations and certifications, and demonstrate compliance with country of origin requirements including 65% U.S. components. The solicitation requires acceptance of Argonne's commercial terms and conditions as well as moderate risk on-site supplemental conditions for contractors working at the facility. Critical deadlines include a question submission cutoff of June 24, 2025, at 12:00 PM CST, and proposal submission deadline of June 27, 2025, at 5:00 PM CST, with all inquiries directed to jdoria@anl.gov.

This solicitation does not utilize any set-aside designations and no incumbent contractors are identified in the documentation. While specific award values are not disclosed, the procurement involves a single broadband microwave system unit with associated installation and training services, suggesting a specialized, high-value technical acquisition. The project timeline spans 18 weeks from contract award, with 14 weeks allocated for unit development and delivery, followed by installation and training completion within the full 18-week period. Performance will take place at Argonne National Laboratory's Materials Engineering Research Facility (MERF) in the United States, where the system will enhance drying and heating efficiency for membrane coatings and support artificial intelligence-enabled autonomous coating process development. The procurement falls under NAICS code 334516 for Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing and PSC code 6640 for Laboratory Equipment and Supplies, reflecting the specialized scientific instrumentation nature of this acquisition.
