About this award
Cornell Technical Services LLC was awarded a $176,905 cost-plus-fixed-fee delivery order by NASA's Langley Research Center on March 27, 2023, to provide Standing Review Board (SRB) support for the Spectro-Photometer for the History of the Universe, Epoch of Reionization and Ices Explorer (SPHEREX) mission. The contract, which carries an ultimate completion date of March 31, 2025, is performed at the contractor's facility in Columbia, Maryland. This delivery order was issued without a small business set-aside designation, allowing the contractor to compete in the unrestricted federal marketplace. The work is expected to be performed under Cornell Technical Services' existing EASSS 3 (Evaluations, Assessments, Studies, Services, & Support 3) Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity contract vehicle with Langley Research Center, valued at $111.75 million.
SPHEREX is a NASA astrophysics mission designed to map the universe's history through infrared spectrophotometry, with particular focus on understanding cosmic reionization and detecting water ice and organic compounds in interstellar environments. Cornell Technical Services, a small professional services firm specializing in technical advisory support to federal agencies, will provide expert evaluation and review board support to advance this scientific mission. The contractor's involvement in SRB activities aligns with its established track record of delivering technical, cost, and management analyses for NASA programs spanning astrophysics, planetary science, Earth science, and heliophysics domains.
