About this opportunity
Brookhaven Science Associates, LLC, operating Brookhaven National Laboratory under contract with the U.S. Department of Energy, is soliciting quotes for the fabrication of a Mpixel MAPS (Monolithic Active Pixel Sensor) to be used in the electron-Proton/Ion Collider (ePIC) Silicon Vertex Tracking Detector. The procurement requires fabrication of 12 prototype wafers using the Tower Partners Semiconductor TPS65IS 7M2L1F 65 nm process, with a guaranteed delivery of at least 6 wafers. Qualified offerors must demonstrate over 10 years of chip manufacturing experience, prior experience with the specified TPS65IS 7M2L1F process, and the ability to achieve a minimum 80% wafer yield rate. The award will be made to the responsive and responsible offeror offering the lowest total price while meeting all technical requirements. Critical dates include a questions deadline of September 3, 2025 at 4:00 PM EST and a quote submission deadline of September 10, 2025 at 4:00 PM EST, with Amendment 1 requiring an informational copy to be sent to Maile Nichols at mnichols@bnl.gov.
This opportunity is issued under full and open competition with no set-aside designation and falls under NAICS code 334413 (Semiconductor and Related Device Manufacturing) with a small business size standard of 1,250 employees. No specific award values or budget ranges are disclosed in the solicitation documents, though pricing must be structured around three milestones: NRE Mock-Up Tape-Out, NRE Mask, and Prototype Lot delivery. The work involves creating a 1,024 x 1,024 pixel sensor and will be performed in two main phases - a mock-up tape-out in fiscal year 2025 and final tape-out for fabrication in fiscal year 2026. The contract period extends through September 30, 2026, with performance anticipated to occur at the contractor's facility, while the sensors will ultimately be utilized at Brookhaven National Laboratory in Upton, New York. The procurement is subject to the Buy American Act, requiring offerors to specify their place of manufacture, and all pricing must be quoted in U.S. dollars with firm pricing maintained for 60 days.
