The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Johnson Space Center awarded an indefinite delivery contract to Space Tango, Inc., a self-certified small disadvantaged business, with a potential value of up to $25 million. Under this contract, Space Tango provides manufacturing and research and development products and services to support NASA's human spaceflight programs and biomedical research goals for the International Space Station. The work focuses on leveraging microgravity conditions to advance innovative projects in areas such as tissue engineering, additive manufacturing, regenerative medicine, organ-on-a-chip, and other supporting capabilities. To date, over $7.5 million in delivery orders have been issued to Space Tango for services like feasibility assessments, technology demonstrations, payload integration, organ production, stem cell manufacturing, cardiac modeling, and the development of flow chemistry platforms and "lab-on-a-chip" products. All work is performed at Space Tango's facility in Lexington, Kentucky and no set-aside designations apply. The funding for this contract comes from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, a civilian agency. Space Tango, a subsidiary of the Kentucky Science and Technology Corporation, utilizes its expertise in manufacturing and research and development to support NASA's exploration and biomedical research goals, with potential applications for both space programs and human health on Earth. The indefinite delivery contract mechanism provides flexibility for NASA to issue targeted task orders as needed, leveraging Space Tango's unique capabilities to advance priority projects across a range of technical areas.
