About this opportunity

Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory is seeking proposals for Storage Ring ID Transition Chambers for the Advanced Light Source Upgrade (ALS-U) project under a Department of Energy civilian contract. The solicitation requires vendors to manufacture 26 different line items of complex ultra-high vacuum (UHV) chambers, including tapers, spools, absorbers, and beam position monitoring components. Mandatory vendor qualifications include recent experience manufacturing UHV chambers for particle accelerators, 5-axis CNC machining capabilities for CuCrZr materials, coordinate measuring machine (CMM) inspection capabilities, and ISO6 clean room assembly expertise. The Request for Quotation (RFQ) AA-2025-01 Rev. 2 requires a firm fixed price proposal in USD, with quotes due January 24, 2025. Evaluation will focus on technical capabilities, manufacturing experience, and compliance with detailed technical specifications outlined in the compliance matrix and statement of work.

The procurement has no specific set-aside designation and will be awarded under NAICS code 332721 for Precision Turned Product Manufacturing with a 500-employee size standard. The total procurement includes 31 individual chambers to be delivered across 12 and 24-week schedules following design review and first article approval. Performance will occur in Berkeley, California, with payment terms of net 30 days (net 15 for small businesses) and delivery specified as Delivered Duty Paid (DDP). The contract is structured under the University of California's Prime Contract No. DE-AC02-05CH11231 with the Department of Energy, with specific requirements for first article testing, environmental compliance, and comprehensive documentation. While specific award value is not disclosed, the procurement involves complex precision manufacturing of specialized scientific equipment for an advanced light source research facility.
