About this award

NASA's Shared Services Center awarded a $31,684.41 firm fixed price purchase order to MSE Supplies LLC, a minority-owned, Asian-Pacific American-owned supplier based in Tucson, Arizona, for the procurement of a hydrogen gas generator to support propulsion system build-up activities. The contract was awarded on August 11, 2025, with an ultimate completion date of November 15, 2025, and performance will take place in Huntsville, Alabama. The award was made without a set-aside designation under a sole source justification, as NASA determined that MSE Supplies LLC was the sole qualified provider of the required equipment. The specific requirement calls for a MSE PRO High-capacity Alkaline Hydrogen Generator capable of producing hydrogen gas at five liters per minute and 0.4 megapascals with purity exceeding 99.999% using distilled water as input.

This procurement directly supports NASA's Mars Propellant Production proof-of-concept initiative at Marshall Space Flight Center, which aims to develop the capability to convert carbon dioxide to methane for potential Mars exploration missions. The hydrogen gas generator serves as a critical component in the agency's broader deep space exploration objectives and advanced propellant production research. MSE Supplies LLC, which specializes in advanced materials and scientific equipment for federal research and development agencies, has an established track record of supplying sophisticated specialized components to NASA and other federal agencies, with previous contract values ranging from approximately $11,000 to $70,000.
