Blanket Purchase Agreement 80AFRC23AA004

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration Armstrong Flight Research Center awarded a multiple-award Blanket Purchase Agreement to Quartus Engineering Incorporated to provide structural dynamics engineering and ground test support services. The BPA has a potential value of $700,000 and a period of performance through January 2028. Quartus Engineering will utilize the BPA to accept task orders for finite element modeling, ground and flight test analysis, materials testing, and related specialties supporting NASA's flight research programs.

The original solicitation sought engineering and technical services providers to aid NASA Armstrong in assessing the airworthiness of flight test aircraft and payloads. NASA Armstrong's Structural Dynamics Group evaluates design, testing, analysis, and flight plans to ensure safety requirements are met and demonstrate sufficient flutter margins. Services under the BPA will support these airworthiness evaluations through extensive ground testing, modeling, and analytical methods. The services procured aim to advance aeronautic concepts by determining their structural integrity and furthering development of NASA's flight research missions.
