EIC ESR D1-D3 & D2 Dipole MagnetsBrookhaven Science Associates (BSA), operating Brookhaven National Laboratory under contract with the U.S. Department of Energy, is seeking input from interested suppliers regarding the production of Electron Storage Ring (ESR) dipole magnets for the Electron Ion Collider project. Specifically, BSA is requesting expressions of interest for 542 D1-D3 dipole magnets and 195 D2 dipole magnets, as outlined in the attached statements of work and technical specifications dated February 4, 2026. This notice serves as a Request for Information (RFI) and Sources Sought announcement, not a solicitation or binding contract. The goal is to gather capability data, assess supplier capacity, and understand market availability for these specialized magnets used in high-energy physics experiments designed to probe the fundamental structure of matter. Suppliers are asked to provide information on their experience producing similar dipole magnets within the past five years, manufacturing and testing capacities, availability of key engineering staff, lead times, minimum order quantities, and their ability to meet project schedules. BSA also seeks details on scrap yield rates for government-furnished steel, pricing validity, and potential effects of order quantity changes on cost and delivery. Responses are due by June 29, 2026, and should be submitted electronically to the highlighted contact person. The information received will assist the DOE Office of Basic Energy Sciences in planning and resource evaluation, but no commitments or payments will be made based on this RFI. All submissions should address compliance with BSA’s general terms and conditions and include budgetary pricing and compliance matrices as requested.
