About this award
The Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory LLC (APL) was awarded a $31.3 million cost-plus-fixed-fee delivery order by NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center, with an ultimate completion date of April 30, 2026. This delivery order supports planetary science work within NASA's Radioisotope Power Systems (RPS) Program and its constituent projects, as well as NASA's Planetary Exploration Science Technology Office (PESTO). The award was made without set-aside designation on March 9, 2021, and will be performed at APL's headquarters in Laurel, Maryland. APL, a not-for-profit university-affiliated research center and subsidiary of Johns Hopkins University, brings substantial expertise in systems engineering, technology development, and research support across complex scientific and engineering domains.
APL has engaged three subcontractors in support of this delivery order: the Desert Research Institute (Nevada System of Higher Education) for scientific services; Advanced Cooling Technologies Inc., a small business manufacturer specializing in thermal management solutions for aerospace applications; and the University of Virginia for materials design and synthesis work. These subcontracting arrangements leverage specialized capabilities in thermal control systems, advanced materials science, and environmental research that complement APL's core systems engineering and technical management expertise. The cost-plus-fixed-fee contract structure enables flexibility in addressing the complex research and development requirements associated with radioisotope power system technologies and planetary exploration objectives.
