About this opportunity

The Department of Energy's Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory is seeking contractors for the construction of the Near Detector Complex as part of the Long-Baseline Neutrino Facilities (LBNF) Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) Project. The Near Detector Complex comprises a Service Building and an underground Near Detector Hall, connected by access shafts. The project aims to provide facilities for a world-class neutrino physics program, including precision measurement of neutrino oscillations and searching for charge parity-violation. Interested contractors should email Brian Quinn at bquinn@fnal.gov to be added to the list of offerors who will receive the Request for Proposal (RFP), expected to be released in May/June 2024.

This procurement is not set aside for any specific business category. The NAICS code and PSC codes have not been provided. There is no information on potential incumbents or current contractors, award values or budget ranges, or numerical details like the quantity of goods or timeline for services.

Update #2 · Latest ·

The Long-Baseline Neutrino Facility / Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment - U.S.  (LBNF/DUNE-US) Project will provide facilities to enable a world-class program in neutrino physics that can measure fundamental physical parameters, explore physics beyond the Standard Model, and better elucidate the nature of matter and anti-matter. Specifically, the LBNF/DUNE-US Project will build a new high-intensity neutrino beam at Fermilab aimed at the LBNF Far Site, located at South Dakota’s Sanford Underground Research Facility (SURF), 1,300 km away; the associated DUNE subproject will build neutrino detectors at Fermilab and SURF. The experiment will be optimized for precision measurement of neutrino oscillations with the goal of searching for charge parity-violation in the neutrino sector, as well as making other precision oscillation measurements. The Near Site Conventional Facilities (NSCF) provides the new service buildings, underground enclosures, utilities, roads, hardstands, and other conventional facilities features needed for operation of the LBNF Beamline and DUNE Near Detector.

This requirement is for the NSCF Near Detector Complex comprising the following elements:

1. Site Work

Site Work includes new utilities and other site improvements necessary to accommodate the LBNF Near Detector Complex.

2. Near Detector Complex

The Near Detector Complex is sited near Fermilab’s western boundary in the path of the neutrino beam and includes the Near Detector Service Building (LBNF-40) located at the surface, and the Near Detector Hall (NDH), an underground detector cavern excavated in rock. The NDH is connected to LBNF-40 by two shafts that allow access for equipment and personnel.  The DUNE Near Detector will be provided and installed by the DUNE subproject after beneficial occupancy.

To be put on the list of Offerors to receive an RFP, please email Brian Quinn, bquinn@fnal.gov.

This solicitation is expected to be released in May/June 2024. NO ADDITIONAL INFORMATION WILL BE AVAILABLE UNTIL THE SOLICITATION IS RELEASED.
