About this opportunity

The Department of Energy, through Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, seeks detailed design services for 76 Advanced Light Source Upgrade (ALS-U) Storage Ring power supply racks, with proposals due October 19, 2026. This is an open (no set-aside) procurement under RFP AA-2027-01.

Place of performance is Berkeley, California. The scope covers rack-level detailed design of three configurations: six layouts for Standard Sectors (54 racks across 9 sectors), six layouts for Hard Bend Sectors (18 racks across 3 sectors), and four layouts for transfer line racks (4 racks total). Deliverables include 3D mechanical models in Autodesk Inventor Professional 2025 format with native source files, fabrication and production drawings, electrical schematics, and interconnect/cable harness designs. All 48U racks (42U usable space) must comply with ALS-U electrical standards including NFPA 70, UL 61010 or UL 60950-1, ANSI/IEEE 519-2014, and IEC 61000-4-34:2005. Heat exchanger specifications are fixed at the Schroff 29714-016 model with 62F inlet water temperature and 6.5 GPM flow.

Design completion is required by January 31, 2027, with phased delivery prioritizing Standard Sector Racks. Contractors must conduct Preliminary Design Reviews and Final Design Reviews for each rack type with two-week LBNL review windows. Post-design support is capped at 200 hours at a fixed hourly rate, covering documentation review and vendor coordination but excluding travel and onsite support. An optional deliverable permits vendors to propose production and assembly support concepts.

The subcontract is fixed-price for detailed design with on-call hourly support, period of performance through January 31, 2029. NAICS code is 541330 (Engineering Services); small business size standard is $25.5 million average annual receipts. Evaluation weighs technical approach (including schedule feasibility and personnel qualifications), relevant past performance on electro-mechanical or power distribution projects within three years, quality assurance and configuration management capabilities, and acceptance of Sample Subcontract terms. Questions are due September 24, 2026. An optional pre-proposal conference was held October 8, 2026 (recording provided). The RFP has been revised multiple times through October 12, 2026; the most recent revision issued Questions & Clarifications No. 5 clarifying schedule flexibility, the Acceptance Criteria List status, and correction obligations under the SOW.
