The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Kennedy Space Center has awarded an indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contract called the Spacecraft Processing Operations Contract (SPOC) to Astrotech Space Operations, LLC, a subsidiary of Lockheed Martin Corporation. The $100 million SPOC IDIQ provides spacecraft processing operations and facilities, including cleanroom space, hazardous operations support like fueling, and transportation services to support NASA's range of small to heavy lift vehicles. Under the SPOC IDIQ, NASA has issued multiple firm-fixed-price delivery orders to Astrotech, including a $3.1 million order for Sentinel 6B spacecraft processing, a $3.8 million order for processing of two NASA science missions, an $11.7 million order for the Interstellar Mapping and Acceleration Probe mission, and a $7.3 million order for Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite-U payload processing. These task orders do not have set-aside designations, reflecting Astrotech's established capabilities in the space industry support services sector. The SPOC IDIQ and associated task orders are managed by the civilian NASA Kennedy Space Center.
