Offers due October 30, 2026 at 5:00 PM EDT - Department: Department of Energy - Contracting office: SLAC Natl Accel Lab -DOE Contractor (899040) - NAICS: 334517 Irradiation Apparatus Manufacturing - Product or service code: AJ12 General Science And Technology R&D Services; General Science And Technology; Applied Research - Place of performance: California - County: San Mateo County (FIPS 06081). https://abierto.us/counties/san-mateo-county-ca-06081 - First posted: October 12, 2026 - Last posted: October 23, 2026 - SAM.gov: https://sam.gov/workspace/contract/opp/e23378687af743c49c4d9298130ea54b/view ## Description SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory is operated by Stanford University for the Department of Energy. As a management and operating contractor, subcontracts awarded by the Laboratory are not Federal procurements, and are not directly subject to the Federal Acquisition Regulations in 48 CFR. Nonetheless, certain Federal laws, Executive Orders, and regulations may affect our DOE approved purchasing system, as required by statute, regulation, or contract terms and conditions. AMENDMENT 01 The following addendum is issued for Request for Quotation: 369006_X-Ray_Imaging_Detector_System. This amendment provides answers to supplier questions and clarifies the technical requirements and competition basis. This amendment must be acknowledged. Failure to acknowledge all amendments may make a proposal non-responsive. Suppliers shall confirm whether their previously submitted proposal remains unchanged. If the clarification results in a change, please submit a revised proposal. All other terms and conditions of the Request for Quotation remain unchanged. Supplier Questions and SLAC Responses 1. Is the detector intended for an industrial application or for research use, specifically X-ray diffraction? SLAC Response: The detector is intended for X-ray diffraction research. 2. Is this purchase replacing an existing detector? If yes, please provide the current detector model and original serial number so suppliers can confirm compatibility. SLAC Response: This purchase is not replacing an existing detector. However, part of the detector's purpose is to serve as a direct backup for LCLS, as needed, to reduce the risk of beamtime loss. The detector currently integrated for this application is the Varex XRD 4343CT-F22-C-000 Imaging Grade detector. 3. The solicitation states that the detector must be applicable for hard and high-energy X-ray diffraction greater than 20 keV. What operating energy range and shielding level are required for the intended application? SLAC Response: The required operating energy range is at least 20-100 kV. Shielding will be provided by the beamline. The detector window-to-sensor path must be non-metal. 4. Will SLAC consider an alternative detector with a 35 cm x 43 cm active area, rather than the stated minimum active area of 40 cm x 40 cm, if the remaining technical requirements are met? SLAC Response: No. Square geometry is required because of the diffraction-ring application, and the smaller detector dimension defines the usable area. The detector must also be a flat panel with a narrow depth of less than 10 cm due to space constraints, and the total weight must be less than 15 kg. 5. Will SLAC consider equivalent products from alternative manufacturers, provided the proposed product meets all technical requirements? SLAC Response: Not considered 6. Is the procurement a Small Business Set-Aside, or is it full and open competition? SLAC Response: This procurement is open competition and is not a Small Business Set-Aside.
