FXI and ISR Mirror Bender Upgrade Package

Brookhaven National Laboratory, on behalf of the Department of Energy Office of Science, intends to solicit design, engineering, manufacturing, assembly, delivery, and installation of upgraded mirror bender systems for the FXI and ISR Beamlines at the National Synchrotron Light Source II, with formal solicitation expected by the end of June 2026 and anticipated award in July 2026.

Work is performed at BNL in Upton, New York, with factory acceptance testing at the contractor's facility and site acceptance testing at BNL. The contractor must replace existing piezo-based bender systems with stepper-motor-controlled systems while maintaining current motion performance specifications including travel range, resolution, accuracy, and repeatability. Equipment must comply with ultra-high-vacuum standards per BSA document LT-ENG-RSI-SR-VA-002, U.S. electrical standards and NFPA70 certification, ASME B31.3 piping standards, and BSA controls interface requirements. Scope includes one FXI Collimating Mirror Bender System, one FXI Toroidal Mirror Bender System, one ISR Horizontal Focusing Mirror Bender with in-vacuum double piping metal cooling lines, one ISR Vertical Focusing Mirror Bender, and ultra-high-vacuum and radiation-rated cables.

Site acceptance testing must be completed approximately 9 months (38 weeks) after contract award. Deliverables include Final Design Review at 8 weeks, equipment delivery at 32 weeks, factory and site acceptance testing, a two-year warranty, spare motors and encoders, Job Hazard Analysis documentation, and a comprehensive end-item documentation package. Contract type is Firm Fixed Price with full and open competition. NAICS code 334519 (Other Measuring and Controlling Device Manufacturing), PSC 6650. One or more items are subject to Free Trade Agreements. Vendors must be registered in SAM.gov under the applicable NAICS code before submitting quotes; a draft Statement of Work dated March 26, 2026, is available.
