Request for Proposal: ALCF Equinox AI System

Solicitation # 6-B143-P-00251-00

UChicago Argonne, LLC, operating Argonne National Laboratory under a Department of Energy prime contract, is soliciting proposals for the Equinox AI System. This procurement involves the delivery, installation, and integration of a scalable, rack-scale artificial intelligence computing environment aligned with the NVIDIA AI Factory model. The base system consists of sixteen NVIDIA GB300 NVL72 compute racks, including all necessary networking, software, and licensing. The project is designed to support DOE science and the Genesis Mission, with strict facility requirements including a 10 MW electrical load and heat rejection capacity, a footprint under 6,000 square feet, and the use of 480V five-wire power service. The contract utilizes a best-value tradeoff award basis, prioritizing technical merit over price, though both are significant factors. Proposals are evaluated through a three-part process: a pass/fail business and management review, a technical evaluation using adjectival ratings, and a price analysis. Financing for the system may be structured through a lease-to-ownership arrangement with terms ranging from 12 to 84 months. Following system acceptance, which is contingent upon a mutually developed Acceptance Test Plan covering functional and stability testing, the contractor must provide five years of maintenance and support services.
