About this award
NASA's Shared Services Center has awarded a $114.6K firm fixed-price purchase order to Global Effects, Inc. of Sylmar, California for the design and fabrication of two high-fidelity replica Orion Crew Survival System (OCSS) suits. The contract, awarded on September 23, 2025, with completion targeted for January 31, 2026, supports outreach and display activities for the Artemis II lunar mission. The replicas must be fully functional display-quality suits featuring nylon restraint layers, removable washable liners, orange cover layers with Velcro patches, leather-palmed gloves, and helmets with movable visors, accompanied by two additional helmet and glove sets and protective transport cases. This procurement was conducted as a sole-source acquisition under FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i), with NASA determining Global Effects as the only qualified vendor capable of delivering these specialized replica systems.

The award followed a Special Notice posted on September 16, 2025, that requested industry capability statements to inform the agency's procurement methodology. Work is being performed at the contractor's facility in Sylmar, Los Angeles, California. This procurement falls under NAICS code 315210 (Cut and Sew Apparel Contractors) and is funded through NASA's Shared Services Center, reflecting the agency's commitment to developing high-quality educational and outreach materials for its human spaceflight programs.
