Description

Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) is gathering industry interest for the design, fabrication, and delivery of a modular hot‑cell system to be installed in the new Radioisotope Processing Facility (RPF). The effort covers one base‑award Transloading Modular Hot Cell with options for six additional transloading cells and seven processing cells, including shielding, cask handling equipment, and basic containment interfaces, but excludes the design of internal process equipment, automation, and ventilation systems which ORNL will supply. The contractor must comply with a suite of DOE and ASME quality and safety standards and provide detailed design, shielding analysis, fabrication plans, shipping and installation procedures, and testing documentation. • Design and detailed engineering of transloading and processing modular hot cells (up to 14 units total). • Fabrication of the base‑unit transloading hot cell and optional additional cells, including shielding, manipulators, ventilation ports, and a 1,000 lb overhead crane for the transloading cell. • Development of fabrication, quality‑assurance, shipment, and on‑site installation plans; testing, commissioning, and as‑built documentation. • Compliance with DOE Orders (e.g., 830, 413.3B, 425.1D) and ASME NQA‑1; adherence to leak‑tightness, HEPA filtration, and radiation‑shielding requirements.

Budget estimate

$10,000,000 – $30,000,000

Based on the scope—design, analysis, and fabrication of up to 14 specialized modular hot cells with shielding, manipulators, and integrated handling equipment—a DOE‑funded project of this magnitude typically ranges from $10 million to $30 million. The lower bound assumes a single base‑unit design and modest fabrication; the upper bound includes all optional cells, extensive shielding, and full documentation and testing. Factors influencing the range include the chosen shielding materials (lead vs. steel), level of customization for manipulators, and logistics of shipping and on‑site installation.
