About this award
Sophisticated Alloys Inc., a small business metal alloy manufacturer based in Butler, Pennsylvania, has been awarded a purchase order valued at $19,301 by the NASA Shared Services Center for vacuum induction melting of recycled shape memory alloy compositions. The contract, awarded June 23, 2025, with completion targeted for December 31, 2025, is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside under firm fixed-price terms. The work will be performed in Cleveland, Ohio and involves processing experimental nickel-titanium-hafnium-zirconium (NiTiHfZr) alloy compositions to produce clean, homogeneous cylindrical ingots meeting strict quality specifications for minimal impurities and structural integrity.
This award resulted from a Request for Quotation issued by NASA Shared Services Center on June 13, 2025, seeking qualified vendors to perform vacuum induction melting on two distinct alloy compositions: Alloy 1 (Ni50.3Ti29.7Hf5Zr15 at.%) and Alloy 2 (Ni54Ti45Hf1 at.%), with the contractor responsible for producing approximately 45 kilograms and 40 kilograms of material respectively. Sophisticated Alloys Inc. demonstrated particular suitability for this work through its established expertise in advanced metallurgical processing and prior experience with NASA on similar vacuum induction melting and vacuum arc melting projects involving experimental shape memory alloy compositions. The company's technical capability and existing relationship with the NASA Shared Services Center made it the successful awardee under the evaluation criteria of Lowest Price Technically Acceptable.
