Tolerances driving cost

4. Budgetary estimates received from 3 vendors Tolerances are issue
Master & False Coil
Budgetary estimates received from 3 vendors
2 No Bids
Tolerances are issue
Tight profile tolerance along length, slots positioning along length
Possible mitigations
Apply tolerances in constrained state, loosen tolerances

7. Procurement Costing Estimate
Estimates (LBNL 24.5%)
Yokes, Loadpads & Collars - $371k
Master, False Coil - $100k
Aluminum Shells - $148k
Nitronic End Plates - $33.3k
Axial & Tension Rods - $27.4k
Total (No Contingency)= $680k
30% Contingency = $204k
Total with Contingency = $884k

8. LBNL Procurement Leadtimes
Processing Times after Requisition Submitted
Up to $25k – 14 Days
$25k-$150k – 25 Days
$150k- $500k
