The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center awarded a $249,023 firm-fixed-price purchase order contract to Duke University's Office of Research Administration Division. The contract is for chamber services to support validation of facilities and test teams for decompression sickness studies during spaceflight and exploration missions. This contract has no set-aside designation. The scope of work includes recruiting subjects, performing a 6-hour prebreathe followed by a 6-hour simulated extra-vehicular activity (EVA), and collecting measurement data. This contract award is associated with a larger NASA Request for Quotation (RFQ) opportunity seeking providers of hyperbaric chamber services. As a leading research university, Duke has extensive experience supporting a wide range of federal government agencies through both contract awards and grant funding for critical research and development efforts.
