About this award
The Regents of the University of Colorado, operating through its Office of Contracts and Grants Division, received a delivery order award on December 2, 2024, to conduct a purged bakeout contamination control study for the Space Flight Contamination Control community. The work, valued at $275,150 and structured as a cost no-fee delivery order, will be performed in Boulder, Colorado, with completion targeted for January 20, 2026. This effort supports NASA's Science Mission Directorate Earth System Science Pathfinder Program and will deliver data-backed conclusions and recommendations regarding methods, equipment, and processes for purged bakeout—a critical contamination control technique in spacecraft and mission hardware preparation. No small business set-aside designation was applied to this award.
The University of Colorado brings substantial expertise in supporting NASA's space science missions, including ongoing work through a $15 million indefinite delivery contract with NASA's Johnson Space Center for low Earth orbit space life science research platform operations. This purged bakeout contamination control study represents a focused technical contribution to NASA's broader contamination control protocols, which are essential for protecting sensitive spacecraft hardware, scientific instruments, and microgravity research payloads from particulate and molecular contamination that could compromise mission success and data quality.
Description
Conduct a purged bakeout contamination control study that contributes specific, data-backed conclusions and recommendations to the spaceflight contamination control community regarding the methods, equipment, and process for purged bakeout.
