The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has awarded Intuitive Machines, LLC, a leading space exploration company, an Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) under the Commercial Lunar Payload Services (CLPS) program. This $4.6 billion multiple-award contract enables Intuitive Machines to provide end-to-end lunar surface transportation and payload integration services to support NASA's sustainable lunar exploration goals.
Through a series of delivery orders under this IDC, Intuitive Machines has been contracted to deliver a range of science payloads, research investigations, and exploration technologies to the lunar surface, including the Polar Resource Ice-Mining Experiment-1 (PRIME-1) and a radio frequency mass gauge. The firm-fixed-price delivery orders, which do not include set-asides, have a total value exceeding $250 million to date. Leveraging its prior CLPS experience, Intuitive Machines will continue to transport payloads and conduct lunar surface operations through the ultimate contract completion date of November 28, 2028, with work primarily performed in Houston, Texas.
