About this award
NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center awarded a $4.48 million definitive contract to Leidos, Inc. for lunar logistics and mobility studies on April 30, 2025. The work addresses NASA's lunar logistics challenges—vast distances, harsh environments, and limited infrastructure—to support a Moon-to-Moon (M2M) architecture under the NextSTEP-2 Appendix R program.
The originating solicitation sought industry-led concept definition and maturation studies to identify innovative strategies for lunar surface logistics and uncrewed surface mobility capabilities, evaluate technology maturity and cost/schedule factors, and generate data supporting NASA's development of lunar surface logistics and mobility requirements. The studies account for forecasted annual lunar surface cargo demands ranging from 2,500 to 10,000 kg, with occasional large deliveries up to 15,000 kg that current cargo landers cannot accommodate.
Performance is located in Reston, Virginia. The contract is firm fixed price with an ultimate completion date of September 30, 2026. No set-aside applied to this award.
Description
NEXTSTEP2 appendix R: lunar logistics and mobility studies. The study will address NASA's lunar logistics challenges such as vast distances, harsh environments, and limited infrastructure to support a M2M architecture.
