About this award

NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center awarded Micron Semiconductor LIMITED a $280,000 firm-fixed-price contract on October 21, 2020, for the delivery of 40 custom solid-state detectors to support the Mercury Imaging X-ray Spectrometer (MERiT) instrument aboard the Lunar Gateway program. The detectors were procured on a sole-source basis through solicitation number 80GSFC20007, with no small business set-aside designation applied. Micron Semiconductor LIMITED, a United Kingdom-based manufacturer with a registered SAM.gov presence since 2009, was identified as the only contractor capable of meeting NASA's specialized technical requirements and delivering the components within the required three-month timeframe for instrument development. The contract included a firm completion date of May 31, 2021.

The Lunar Gateway represents NASA's planned lunar outpost for deep space exploration missions, and the MERiT instrument will contribute X-ray spectrometry capabilities for lunar science investigations. Micron Semiconductor LIMITED's selection leveraged its incumbent status and proven expertise in delivering specialized detectors and related components for prior NASA space science missions. The contract performance was executed from the vendor's location in Great Britain, with the detectors supporting NASA's broader lunar exploration and Artemis program objectives.
