The Regents of the University of California, through Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL), seeks custom-fabricated floor plates for the ALS-U Storage Ring tunnel.
- **Buyer:** U.S. Department of Energy; Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory; Advanced Light Source (ALS), ALS-U. The procurement documents identify The Regents of the University of California as the contracting entity.
- **Requirement:** Fabricate, inspect, document, package, and deliver embedded floor plates to LBNL drawings and specifications. The package lists a first article and nine production batches across nine part numbers.
- **Products and quantities listed:** 108 plates total across the line items: 12 each of AL-1425-2859, AL-1498-3423, AL-1425-2860, AL-1498-3480, AL-1425-2861, AL-1425-2862, AL-1425-2858, AL-1521-1093, and AL-1975-5588. The first part number comprises 2 first-article plates and 10 production plates.
- **Quantity discrepancy:** The SOW summary describes 96 plates, but the listed line-item quantities sum to 108. It also labels AL-1975-5588 as type 9 in one summary and type 8 in another; confirm the governing drawings and schedule.
- **Services and options:** Core fabrication, inspection, serialization, packaging, delivery, and quality documentation. Options include controlled storage and release; inspection templates or individual CMM measurements; and additional-hole machining, listed as two 26-plate options.
- **Notable requirements:** Obtain LBNL authorization before production or shipment; receive first-article approval; maintain traceable serial numbers; report nonconformances; and provide certificates of conformance, material certifications, packing lists, batch verification, and inspection reports. Delivery is FOB Destination to LBNL with freight included.
- **OEMs/vendors:** No product OEM, manufacturer, or supplier is named in the provided materials.
