About this opportunity
The Department of Energy is seeking a contractor to fabricate NOMAD Secondary Collimators for Oak Ridge National Laboratory's Spallation Neutron Source (SNS), with specific requirements for precision machining borated aluminum components. The solicitation targets machine shops with up to 500 employees within NAICS category 332710, requiring detailed manufacturing of collimators using aluminum with 31% Boron content according to provided technical drawings. Proposals are due on March 27, 2025, at 5:00 PM EST, with a 120-day proposal validity period, and must be submitted in MS Excel, MS Word, or PDF formats. Contractors will be evaluated on their ability to meet technical specifications, affordability, and schedule requirements for the components. The procurement is structured as a firm fixed-price subcontract with specific technical specifications detailed in accompanying engineering drawings.
The contract is not designated as a small business set-aside and will be funded directly by the Department of Energy, with a performance period from April 7, 2025, to August 29, 2025. The place of performance is located in Oak Ridge, Tennessee, with payment terms set at net 30 days via electronic funds transfer upon final acceptance of the manufactured components. The solicitation covers multiple optical bank assemblies, including detailed components for Beamline 1B with extremely precise manufacturing tolerances, such as 0.01-inch precision and specific surface roughness requirements. Contractors will need to produce intricate aluminum parts with specific boron content, including side plates, vertical and horizontal fins, and mounting assemblies. The total procurement appears to involve multiple complex machined components for a specialized scientific research infrastructure.
