The operation of the ESS facility generates ionising radiation and produces activated materials. In accordance with regulatory requirements, the Environmental Safety & Health Division’s Radiation Protection group is responsible for radiation monitoring and surveillance of conventional environmental parameters in and around ESS. This monitoring and surveillance will be carried out by the Radiological and Environmental Monitoring System (REMS). Part of the REMS scope is for a number of fixed installation pulsed field neutron and photon area monitoring systems used for measurements of dose rates and integrated dose around the ESS facility. The area monitoring will be used as a safety related system as part of ESS’s safety systems used to ensure that area classification is respected. The measurements from the system must be capable of generating local radiation alarms, transmitting remote radiation alarms and providing hardwired signals using Safety Relays when preset alarm thresholds are exceeded or in the event of a fault. ESS intends to procure up to 60 area monitors during the lifetime of the agreement.

Supply and Service Agreement for Detector Cave (experimental end-station) for the ESS Test beamline (TBL). The scope of contract includes design, manufacture, delivery and installation.

The purpose of this RFI is to understand market availability, supply capabilities, price indications and lead-time (as appropriate) for NMX Robotic Systems. The scope consists of the NMX (Macromolecular Diffractometer) Robotic Positioning Systems for both Sample and Neutron Detectors.

Design, manufacturing and testing of a T0 Chopper project for the ODIN neutron imaging & scattering instrument

The services required comprehend all the relevant activities to create and produce signs, labels and marking for the ESS Facility. Such activities may cover different aspects such as recommendation to the best solutions for ESS to produce their own signs, labels or marking, or to provide ready to use signs, labels or marking and as an option installation of signs. The tender will be divided in lots where the supplier can participate in one or more lots. The contract period will be 5 years.

ESS, European Spallation Source, intends to procure Cleaning Services for ESS’ facilities in Lund. The site consists of several different buildings with varying activities such as offices, laboratories and machine halls. The total area today is approximately 21’000 sqm. As construction still is on-going the area will increase gradually as buildings are completed. The service delivery must include daily cleaning of the premises mentioned above as well as periodic cleaning and maintenance such as window cleaning, deep cleaning, floor care, textile- and furniture care. There will also be a need for specific cleaning efforts, for example machine scrubbing of floor in a machine hall between replacements of installations. ESS is looking for a future partner who wants to join our journey towards a way of working that is based on well-thought-out, daily efforts with great flexibility that gives the result ESS expects: a workplace that always gives a clean and tidy impression and that supports our quest to be the best place to work - "the place to be"

ESS is required to investigate, carry out and follow up activities in such a way that ill health and accidents at work are prevented and a satisfactory working environment is achieved. One of the hazards identified for those working in certain areas on site is that of low oxygen. A number of measures have been identified to reduce the risk of exposure to reduced oxygen levels. One of these measures is the provision of personal gas monitors. ESS’s Environmental Safety & Health Division is managing the service to provide these monitors to those who need them. The scope of the tender is to establish a framework agreement with a single supplier for the provision of portable gas monitors to be worn by personnel whilst they carry out their activities onsite. OHS will evaluate the tender on not only monitor types that can measure the presence or absence of a single gas but also monitors that can measure for multiple gases simultaneously. The types of monitors to be included in this framework agreement are as follows; · Oxygen monitors, specifically monitors to alert the wearer that they are in an environment with depleted oxygen, Oxygen Deficiency Hazard (ODH) monitors. · Hydrogen Sulphide (H₂S) monitors to alert the wearer that they are in an environment with H₂S. · Hydrogen (H) monitors to alert the wearer that they are in an environment with Hydrogen. · Carbon Monoxide (CO) monitors to alert the wearer that they are in an environment with elevated Carbon Monoxide. As ESS becomes fully operational, it looks to procure a large stock of monitors. They will be kept in continual use, with a certain number being recalled for calibration, by ESS, at a frequency defined by The Supplier. ESS will also keep a number of monitors as contingency in stock as spares.

The scope of the delivery is the NBPI Water cooling system 1026 for the cooling of the Neutron Beam Port Inserts as well as the NBOA Helium Supply system 1028 for the helium supply of the Optic Assemblies within the Neutron Beam Port Inserts. The full project delivery is of 2 main feed lines, 42 riser lines including media connector and 16 instrumented panels

Supply of data center routers and switches, office edge switches and wireless access points for the the ESS campus buildings and target buildings. The equipment will be needed before the end of the year 2020.

This agreement relates to the procurement of furniture and installation services in the chemical and technical laboratories of the European Spallation Source ERIC (ESS). This includes the actual furniture, but also the installation of extraction connections as well as process, piping and electrical installations required for the chemical and technical workshops.

Manufacturing of 42 Aluminium Neutron Beam Windows (NBW), according to ESS design drawing. 16 in need of customization whereof 15 needs cooling channels including pressure testing. Material is Al 6061 T6. Each window needs approximately 70-80 custom made captive bolts, depending on configuration, made according to ESS design drawing. Finished size per window is 904x360x44 mm.
