Description
The Department of Energy’s Fermilab (via Fermi Forward Discovery Group) is seeking a subcontractor to supply, assemble, test, document, and deliver cold‑cathode vacuum gauges (LB650), associated readout controllers, measurement boards, and cabling for the PIP‑II accelerator upgrade. The work must meet detailed performance specifications (pressure range, radiation resistance, temperature limits, size/weight limits) and be cleaned to ISO‑4 clean‑room standards, double‑bagged, and shipped DAP to Batavia, IL. The solicitation follows a firm‑fixed‑price, lowest‑price‑technically‑acceptable (LPTA) source‑selection process, with a $750k threshold for a small‑business subcontracting plan if the award exceeds that amount.
• Deliver cold‑cathode LB650 vacuum gauges with CF‑F flange, 1 × 10⁻¹¹–5 × 10⁻³ mbar range, ≤ 2 kg, ≤ 116 mm × 64.5 mm envelope.
• Provide readout controllers (100 Hz, USB & Ethernet) and measurement boards (2 circuits, 100 m cable) that interface with the gauges.
• Ensure ISO‑4 cleaning, double‑bag packaging, and DAP shipping; include a Management Control Plan/QA‑QC procedure and warranty (12 mo use or 18 mo delivery).
