About this award
NASA's Glenn Research Center has awarded a delivery order valued at $255,053.27 to HX5 LLC, a certified women-owned small business based in Fort Walton Beach, Florida, for the Small Stirling Radioisotope Power System Development for Exploring Mars Together (GEARS to 0534) project. This Cost Plus Fixed Fee delivery order, set aside for total small business, is scheduled for completion by March 31, 2026, with work to be performed in Cleveland, Ohio. The award represents continued support for HX5's involvement in advanced power systems development under NASA Glenn's larger GEARS (Glenn Engineering and Research Support) single-award Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity contract, which is valued at over $430 million through 2027. HX5 has established a substantial track record executing multiple task orders under this IDIQ vehicle for diverse research initiatives including aircraft propulsion, thermal management, solar array validation, and radioisotope power systems.
HX5's selection for this Stirling power system development work reflects the company's extensive experience in specialized aerospace and research applications for federal agencies. Beyond its NASA Glenn portfolio, HX5 holds multiple General Services Administration OASIS+ Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity contract vehicles worth up to $999.999 billion each through 2029, including total small business set-aside and unrestricted multiple-award contracts, positioning the company to deliver multidisciplinary engineering, research and development, and technical support services across the federal government. The company also maintains significant delivery order work with the U.S. Air Force, Army Corps of Engineers, and serves as a subcontractor to major defense and aerospace primes.
