About this award

This is a cost-plus-fixed-fee delivery order awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Langley Research Center to The Aerospace Corporation, a federally funded research and development center (FFRDC). The $167,913 contract is for independent verification of the Space Launch System (SLS) Block 1 pre-launch, liftoff, and ascent gust loads and methodology. The scope includes comparisons to the SLS Design Analysis Cycle 3R or Vehicle Acceleration Cycle 1 analyses, but does not include structural assessment or resolution of any differences found. This order is not associated with a set-aside program. The Aerospace Corporation is a non-profit organization that provides specialized engineering, research, and advisory services to NASA, the Department of Defense, NOAA, and other government agencies through prime contracts and grants.

Description

"nesc (national aeronautics and space administration engineering & safety center) independent verification of space launch system (SLS) block 1 prelaunch, liftoff, and ascent gust methodology and loads " - the scope of this effort is for the contractor to provide independent verification of the SLS, gsdo mobile launcher, and orion mpcv vehicles pre-launch, liftoff, and ascent gust loads, using tools developed by independent coupled loads contractors. Comparisons will be made to the SLS design analysis cycle (DAC) 3R or VAC 1 analyses. Structural assessment of the resultant loads is not within the scope of this assessment and will have to be undertaken by the appropriate program if the current programs design loads are found to be discrepant. Further, resolution of differences between the current programs loads and those determined by this assessment is also not within scope and will require a follow-on task.
