	HIAF (High Intensity heavy ion Accelerator Facility) is a new accelerator facility for advances in the nuclear physics and related research fields in China. It is composed of a superconducting ion linear accelerator, a high-energy synchrotron booster, a high-energy radioactive isotope beam line, an experimental storage ring, and a few experimental setups. Characterized by unprecedented intense ion beams from hydrogen through uranium, HIAF can produce a large variety of exotic nuclear matters not normally found on the earth and will bring researchers to the forefront of promoting the most vigorous and fascinating fields in nuclear physics. In addition, HIAF will provide an excellent platform to develop heavy-ion applications in medicine, life science, space science, and material science. The construction of HIAF started up in December of 2018, and takes approximately seven years in total. Since the commencement, the civil engineering and infrastructure are being constructed on time schedule and will be completed in July, 2023. R&D on key accelerator techniques are going on successfully, and prototypes of core devices are fabricated in collaboration with home and abroad universities, institutes, and companies. Presently, we come to the stage of invitation for bids and volume production of various apparatuses. The progress and present status will be given in the presentation.
