About this opportunity
The Department of Energy's Ames Laboratory is seeking a contractor for the MD160A Magnet Test Bed Phase 2 project, which involves construction and renovation work to support the installation of laboratory equipment in the Metals Development Building. The project includes selective demolition, mechanical and electrical modifications, and finishing work in rooms 160, 160A, and adjacent spaces, with specific requirements for electrical recircuiting, floor repairs, and installation of an Argon storage and handling system. Contractors must submit both technical and price proposals with evaluation factors including past performance, safety program effectiveness, communication and coordination plans, and project timeline adherence. The procurement requires a 5% bid bond, financial stability documentation, and completion of extensive safety and quality assurance questionnaires. Key dates include a mandatory pre-proposal meeting held on June 23, 2025, with proposal submissions due by July 9, 2025 at 4:00 PM CDT, and an anticipated award date of July 21, 2025.
This solicitation operates under full and open competition with no set-aside designation, though small business preferences apply for veteran-owned, service-disabled veteran-owned, HUBZone, and women-owned small businesses under NAICS code 236220 with a $45 million size standard. The contract will be awarded as a firm fixed-price subcontract with substantial completion required by December 1, 2025, and final completion by December 12, 2025. Work will be performed at the Ames National Laboratory facility in Ames, Iowa, which is operated by Iowa State University for the U.S. Department of Energy. The project involves construction work in multiple rooms within the Metals Development Building, with contractors required to coordinate with existing operations and comply with stringent safety requirements including DOE worker protection policies and laboratory-specific environmental, safety, and health standards. While no specific contract value is mentioned in the documents, the procurement includes provisions for a base bid plus three alternates, suggesting a multi-phase approach to the construction work.
