About this award

Written by GovTribe AI ·

The U.S. government awarded a delivery order contract to the California Institute of Technology's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) on September 17, 2019, for "Understanding and Mitigating Ionospheric Disturbances." The contract, valued at $2.67 million with a ceiling amount matching this value, is structured as a cost-plus-fixed-fee delivery order with an ultimate completion date of March 30, 2025. The work will be performed in Pasadena, California, and no set-aside designation was used for this award. The funding agency is identified as the Southwestern Region of a civilian federal agency, and the contract award reflects the government's selection of JPL based on technical merit and capabilities rather than small business or other set-aside considerations.

JPL, operating as a federally funded research and development center for NASA, brings significant expertise to ionospheric research and space science applications. The ionospheric disturbances project aligns with JPL's core competencies in space systems development, advanced sensor technologies, and scientific research. Ionospheric work is relevant to space weather monitoring, communications systems protection, and satellite operations—areas critical to national interests in space exploration and Earth observation. The cost-plus-fixed-fee structure is typical for JPL's research and development contracts and allows flexibility in addressing technical challenges inherent in space science research while maintaining cost control through the fixed fee component.
