About this opportunity
The Department of Energy has issued a Limited / Sole Source Justification Notice for a five-year extension of the Management and Operating (M&O) contract for Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL), to be awarded to UT-Battelle, LLC from April 1, 2025, through March 31, 2030. The contract, valued at an estimated $12-13 billion with an annual operating budget of approximately $2.5 billion, covers the continued operation of this multi-program national laboratory conducting critical research in neutron science, energy, high-performance computing, materials science, environmental management, and national security. The justification for the non-competitive procurement is based on UT-Battelle's unique capabilities, exceptional past performance, and the laboratory's essential role in supporting DOE's scientific and national security missions. The Department of Energy argues that competitive re-procurement would not likely result in meaningful performance or cost improvements, and the extension is authorized under statutory provisions for nonprofit institutions operating Federally Funded Research and Development Centers. Twenty-four of DOE's twenty-five core capabilities are currently delivered by ORNL, further supporting the rationale for maintaining the current contract arrangement.
