JOB OVERVIEW

The Electron-Ion Collider (EIC) Project Infrastructure Independent Construction Cost Estimate (A-E Cost Estimation Services) is a specialized Architect-Engineer (A-E) consulting service that develops an independent, detailed construction cost estimate to verify the accuracy, completeness, and reasonableness of projected construction costs for infrastructure supporting the Electron-Ion Collider (EIC) at Brookhaven National Laboratory.

Where It Is Relevant: The project is located at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) in Upton, Long Island, New York, operated by Brookhaven Science Associates, LLC (BSA) for the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE). The services apply specifically to New York State Work Package No. 02, covering construction of support buildings, foundations, electrical distribution systems, process cooling infrastructure, underground utilities, tunnel connections, and related site improvements.

Why It Is Important: The Electron-Ion Collider is a major scientific research facility designed to investigate the internal structure of protons and atomic nuclei. Its specialized infrastructure requires substantial construction investment and precise cost planning. An independent estimate provides an objective assessment of construction pricing, identifies discrepancies and potential cost risks, and helps ensure that proposed contractor pricing is fair, reasonable, and aligned with the approved engineering design before construction contracts are awarded.

The ProSidian Engagement Team would review 100% detailed engineering drawings and specifications, calculate construction material quantities, validate labor and equipment costs, develop an AACE Class 1 construction cost estimate, and reconcile differences with the project Architect-Engineer and BSA.  Expected Outcome(s) include, but are not limited to, a documented, defensible, independently validated construction cost estimate that strengthens procurement decisions, improves budget accountability, reduces pricing uncertainty, and supports cost-effective delivery of EIC infrastructure.  Deliver independent construction cost estimates, validate pricing, reconcile discrepancies, and ensure cost-effective infrastructure project execution.

The Mechanical Cost Estimator Core Duties: Detailed estimate for HVAC, fire suppression, process cooling, DI water, compressed air, pumps, piping, and mechanical equipment,
