About this IDV
NASA Glenn Research Center awarded an indefinite-delivery contract to Dynetics, Inc. on June 7, 2017, with a ceiling value of $485,962,997.94, as a single-award vehicle to design, develop, test, evaluate, produce, and deliver Space Launch System (SLS) Universal Stage Adapter (USA) structures that structurally connect the Exploration Upper Stage to the Orion spacecraft. The contract comprises a base period covering design, development, test, evaluation, production, and delivery of a USA for Exploration Mission 2 (EM-2) with post-delivery vehicle integration and support, plus six separate option periods for production and delivery of USAs for EM-3 through EM-8. The contract includes indefinite-delivery indefinite-quantity task ordering authority for studies, analyses, and integration support. Work is performed in Huntsville, Alabama. Recent delivery orders under this vehicle include Task Order 018 (October 1, 2025, $423,582 for additional loads and requirements, completion January 31, 2026) and Task Order 017 (November 8, 2024, $159,170.63 for risk reduction testing of additional response instrumentation during qualification vibration testing, completion December 1, 2025). Earlier orders span payload separation system studies, payload fairing design and development, and spacecraft-to-upper-stage interface shock environment testing. Ultimate contract completion is September 30, 2028.
Description
NASA has a requirement for the space launch system universal stage adapter that will structurally connect the exploration upper stage to the orion spacecraft. SLS is being developed to provide heavy lift launch and in space propulsion capability to enable both exploration and extension of human presence throughout the solar system. The USA meets that need, and also provides the capability to encapsulate large CO manifested and secondary payloads. SLS will meet these objectives through an evolutionary block upgrade strategy. The block 1 SLS configuration is being developed to launch the exploration mission 1 flight test, while the block 1B configuration is being developed to launch the crewed EM 2 flight test and future crewed and cargo missions.
