# NNSA Sets Y-12 FY2027 Award-Fee Plan

The National Nuclear Security Administration’s FY2027 Performance Evaluation and Measurement Plan establishes how it will assess Consolidated Nuclear Security, LLC, the management and operating contractor at the Y-12 National Security Complex, and determine the award fee available during the evaluation period. The assessment covers cost, schedule, technical results, and mission impact. This is incumbent-contract oversight, not a new solicitation.

- The plan makes performance against cost, schedule, technical, and mission-impact criteria relevant to the contractor’s award fee.
- Contractors supporting nuclear materials processing, manufacturing, and site operations can use the stated evaluation areas to understand the performance priorities shaping work at Y-12.
- Businesses seeking new work should distinguish this performance evaluation from a solicitation; the signal identifies no new procurement opportunity or proposal deadline.
