About this award

This is a federal contract award to Zin Technologies, Inc., a self-certified small disadvantaged business, for the SAFFIRE (Spacecraft Fire Safety) project. The purpose of the SAFFIRE project is to close spacecraft fire safety knowledge and engineering gaps associated with material flammability, fire detection, fire suppression, and post-fire clean-up for NASA exploration vehicles.

The contract, awarded by the NASA Glenn Research Center, has a total ceiling value of $14,905,627.00 and a period of performance through March 31, 2024. It is a cost-plus-fixed-fee type contract and is not set aside for any specific business designation. The contract covers the SAFFIRE-I, II, III, IV, V, and VI experiments, which investigate large-scale flame spread, material flammability limits, flame growth/dynamics, fire detection, fire suppression, post-fire cleanup, post-fire monitoring, and fire behavior modeling in long-duration low-gravity environments.

Zin Technologies, Inc., the prime contractor, has a strong track record of providing engineering services, mission integration, and aerospace-related research and development to NASA and the Department of Defense. The company has received numerous federal contract awards and grants from these agencies to support various space exploration and technology development initiatives.

Description

The purpose of saffire is to close spacecraft fire safety knowledge and engineering gaps associated with material flammability, fire detection, fire suppression, and post-fire clean-up for NASA exploration vehicles. Saffire-i, II, and III were developed to investigate large-scale flame spread and material flammability limits in long duration low-gravity. Saffire-IV, v, and VI will continue to investigate these phenomena as well as address additional objectives such as flame growth/dynamics, fire detection, fire suppression, post-fire cleanup, post-fire monitoring and fire behavior modeling.
