About this IDV
This federal Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Kennedy Space Center, a civilian agency, to Air Products & Chemicals, Inc. (Air Products), a for-profit manufacturer of goods. The $262,545,609.22 ceiling value contract is for the purchase of liquid and gaseous helium required at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The contract is not set aside for any particular business type. Air Products has been awarded multiple federal contracts and grants, primarily with the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) and NASA, for the supply of critical industrial gases and related services. This includes a $36,983,247.15 multi-center Indefinite Delivery Vehicle (IDV) with NASA for the purchase of liquid nitrogen through June 30, 2029, which has generated task orders across several NASA centers. The current task order under this IDC, valued at $172,012,676.00, is for the provision of helium support services through September 30, 2025. Air Products' expertise in supporting critical government operations by supplying essential gases for military readiness, space exploration, and scientific research is evident from its extensive contract history.
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Kennedy Space Center (KSC) Office of Procurement has issued a Special Notice to extend the period of performance of the existing contract 80KSC019D0032 with Air Products and Chemicals, Inc. from September 30, 2022 to December 31, 2022. This extension is justified under the authority of the Federal Acquisition Regulation and United States Code allowing other than full and open competition when there is only one responsible source for the needed liquid helium. This Notice of Intent is published for informational purposes only and does not constitute a request for competitive proposals.
