About this award

NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center issued a delivery order to The Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory LLC on January 1, 2022, under the Aerospace Research, Development, and Engineering Support (ARDES) II indefinite delivery contract (80MSFC20D0004) for the Lunar Advanced Filter Observing Radiometer for Geologic Exploration (LAFORGE) instrument. The order carries a ceiling value of $5.871772 million and is priced on a cost-plus-fixed-fee basis, with ultimate completion on September 30, 2027.

Place of performance is Laurel, Maryland. ARDES II is an indefinite delivery vehicle administered by Marshall Space Flight Center supporting aerospace research, development, and engineering services across NASA and federal agencies.

APL is a not-for-profit federally funded research and development center subsidiary of Johns Hopkins University, competing full-and-open without set-aside restrictions. The order engages a multi-vendor technical team including Xometry, Inc. (equipment fabrication), Optimax Systems, Inc. (optical components and materials), and Hardric Laboratories, Inc./Ceretek (optical mirrors and machining services).

Government-invoiced labor under this order has escalated substantially. SCI-reportable activity totaled $296 thousand (0.7 FTEs, 1,537 hours) in FY2022, $595 thousand (1.4 FTEs, 2,939 hours) in FY2023, and $1.8 million (4.0 FTEs, 8,334 hours) in FY2024. Derived hourly rates rose from $192.48/hr in FY2022 to $218.11/hr in FY2024. In FY2024, APL self-performed all reported hours with no subcontractor labor reported against the SCI threshold.
