The Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL) is seeking a qualified small‑business (or joint‑venture) to fabricate, inspect, and deliver custom‑manufactured embedded floor plates for the Advanced Light Source Upgrade (ALS‑U) storage‑ring project. The work includes production of 96 precision metal plates across eight design variants, strict quality‑assurance reporting, and optional services such as inspection‑template fabrication, full inspection reporting, secure storage, and post‑fabrication machining of additional holes. Deliveries are hard‑dated between early January 2027 and late July 2027, with a first‑article review and multiple hold‑points requiring LBNL approvals before series production proceeds. The contract is firm‑fixed‑price, small‑business set‑aside, and must comply with DOE, Buy‑American, export‑control, and sustainability requirements.
• Fabricate 96 embedded floor plates (8 variants) with precise GD&T tolerances.
• Provide 100 % inspection, QA documentation, and optional inspection‑template or full‑report services.
• Meet a staged delivery schedule from 5 Jan 2027 to 30 Jul 2027; first‑article approval required before full production.
