About this award

NASA's Shared Services Center awarded a purchase order to Linde Gas & Equipment Inc. for 111 liters of helium-3 gas on August 12, 2026, with a ceiling value of $123,825.03 and firm fixed price. Performance is scheduled to complete by September 2, 2026, at Danbury, Connecticut. The helium-3 will serve as Government Furnished Equipment for the NSS instrument sensor tube filling work, with delivery to the Linde facility following a ten to fifteen business day lead time. NASA justified the sole-source award based on helium-3's limited availability through Department of Energy allocation and Linde's exclusive distribution authority; competing vendors would introduce materials certification issues, substantially higher costs, and extended delivery timelines. The procurement originated from a special notice posted August 4, 2026, with a capability statement deadline of August 6, 2026.
