REQUEST FOR INFORMATION: High-voltage (HV) pulse generator

The Department of Energy Office of Science is seeking information through this Request for Information regarding a high-voltage pulse generator for what appears to be an ESR injection kicker pulser system, based on the attached technical specification document. This pre-solicitation notice is classified under NAICS code 334515 for Instrument Manufacturing for Measuring and Testing Electricity and Electrical Signals, and PSC code 6115 for Generators and Generator Sets, Electrical. The agency is requesting responses that include capability confirmation, cost estimates, country of origin information, estimated lead times, and small business status verification through SAM.gov registration. Interested vendors must review the detailed technical requirements contained in the attached PDF file titled "ESR_InjKicker_pulser_quote 5Aug25 DMG.pdf" to provide accurate responses. The response deadline is September 19, 2025, allowing vendors one month from the August 19, 2025 posting date to prepare their submissions.

This procurement does not utilize any set-aside designation, making it a full and open competition available to all qualified contractors regardless of business size, though the agency specifically requests small business status information as part of their market research. No incumbent contractors or current service providers are identified in the notice, suggesting this may be either a new requirement or the agency is conducting broad market research without revealing existing relationships. The notice does not specify award values, budget ranges, or quantities, as this is an information-gathering exercise rather than a formal solicitation. The timeline for delivery or service performance is not established in the notice itself, though vendors are asked to provide their estimated lead times as part of their response. The technical specifications and performance requirements are contained entirely within the government-provided attachment, which will determine the scope and complexity of the required high-voltage pulse generator system.
