About this IDV

Written by GovTribe AI ·

This Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC), awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Goddard Space Center, is part of the Rapid Spacecraft Acquisition IV (RAPID IV) contract vehicle. The purpose of this contract is to provide a rapid and flexible means for the government to acquire spacecraft, related components, equipment, and services to support NASA's scientific, exploration, and technology demonstration missions, as well as those of other federal agencies.

The contract has a ceiling value of $6,000,000,000 over a 10-year ordering period. It was awarded to Southwest Research Institute (SwRI), a nonprofit research and development organization, as one of multiple prime contractors. Under this IDC, SwRI has received two task orders to date: a $50,807,345 firm fixed price delivery order for developing and supporting the QuickSounder spacecraft, and a $500 firm fixed price order to provide spacecraft data to support the RAPID IV contract catalog. The original RAPID IV solicitation was unrestricted, seeking offerors with experience in successful spacecraft development to provide designs with minimum payload capabilities. This contract supports the government's need for flexible and rapid procurement of small spacecraft and related technologies.
