MOLLER pivot shielding platform

The Department of Energy (DOE) has issued a solicitation for the fabrication, inspection, and delivery of the MOLLER Pivot Shielding Platform, a specialized metal manufacturing project to be completed according to specific JLAB drawings (A090050500-0000 and A000002300-0001). The contract opportunity, listed under NAICS category 332710 for Machine Shops, seeks a contractor capable of producing this technical subassembly with precise manufacturing specifications. The solicitation was posted on December 4, 2024, with proposals due by December 20, 2024, indicating a relatively short response window for potential bidders. While specific evaluation criteria are not detailed in the notice, contractors will likely be assessed on their technical capabilities, manufacturing precision, and ability to meet the exact drawing requirements. The procurement process appears to be a standard competitive solicitation with no specific set-aside restrictions.

The contract will be performed in Newport News, VA 23606, targeting a machine shop specializing in sophisticated metal container manufacturing equipment. The PSC category (3685) further clarifies the technical nature of the required manufacturing capabilities for this project. Subassembly delivery is explicitly permitted, which provides some flexibility for potential contractors in meeting the project requirements. The solicitation does not specify a precise contract value or budget range, which suggests interested firms should prepare detailed cost proposals based on the technical specifications. While the notice provides limited details about potential award size or contract duration, the specific technical drawings and manufacturing requirements indicate this is a precise, specialized procurement targeting contractors with advanced metal fabrication capabilities.
