ABOUT
Oak Ridge National Laboratory Contracts Division
The Contracts Division includes four purchasing groups and a group responsible for policies, procedures, records, reports, and compliance.
Most Contracts employees are located at 1060 Commerce Park; others are co-located with their customers at the lab, the SNS group is at the CLO building, and the ITER group is located at 1055 Commerce Park.
ORNL is one of DOEs largest and most diverse research and
development organizations. In support of the Labs programs we subcontract for a wide
variety of products and services. Our total annual expenditures are about
$721.5 million. We
purchase calculators and supercomputers, office supplies and office buildings. We have our
own extensive program to award subcontracts to American small businesses, and we help DOE
carry out an international effort to contract for research with scientific institutes in
the former Soviet Union.
Lab procurements are important in the state economy. This year we will
spend about $289.5 million with firms in Tennessee and about $18 million with the University
of Tennessee.
