About this award

Written by GovTribe AI ·

NASA's Armstrong Flight Research Center awarded a $214.9 million definitive contract to General Electric Company (GE Aviation) on September 30, 2021, to accelerate the introduction of megawatt-class electrified aircraft propulsion (EAP) systems into future aircraft products by identifying certification gaps and conducting ground and flight testing.

The effort supports validation of electrified powertrain technologies for industry transition, with work performed at Wyoming, OH. GE Aviation, a large prime contractor competing on full-and-open basis, leads the program with a firm fixed-price structure and a ceiling value of $214.9 million. The originating pre-solicitation (posted October 22, 2020, due May 11, 2021) anticipated performance from December 2023 through June 2025 and sought demonstration of over 1.5 megawatts of power delivery capability with flight-test validation.

GE Aviation assembled a multi-vendor team including Eaton Aeroquip LLC, BAE Systems Controls Inc., Eaton Corporation, and Parker-Hannifin Corporation for aviation engine hardware; GE Gas Power and GE Avio S.R.L. for engine components and manufacturing; Tessec LLC, a minority-owned small disadvantaged business, for precision-machined components; Retlif Inc. for specialized testing services; and The Boeing Company's Engineering, Test & Technology Division for R&D hardware and engineering support. Additional subcontractors include A.F.C. Tool Co., Inc., Lincoln Electric Automation, Inc., and Magna Machine CO. for supporting hardware and fabrication.

NAICS code 336411 (aircraft manufacturing) and PSC code C711 (aircraft and aircraft components) align with the megawatt-class electric powertrain development and demonstration mission.

Description

As the agency reported it.

The requirement is to assist NASA in accelerating the introduction of megawatt class EAP systems into future aircraft products by U.S. Industry. This effort helps to identify certification gaps, and address gaps through ground test and flight tests.
