This Indefinite Delivery Contract was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Kennedy Space Center as a multiple award contract under the Spacecraft Processing Operations Contract (SPOC) master IDIQ. The contract aims to procure spacecraft processing operation services and facilities to support common launch service plans from NASA Kennedy Space Center and Vandenberg Space Force Base over a five year period from 2023-2028, with a potential value of $100 million.
The prime contractor, Space Exploration Technologies Corp., will provide spacecraft and satellite payload processing facilities, cleanroom space certified to ISO 14644-1 Class 8 or better, and approval for hazardous operations including spacecraft fueling. A price catalog outlines the majority of recurring services, and the contract allows for additional facilities and services to be added over time.
The original pre-solicitation notice sought capability statements from interested parties with relevant processing facilities, cleanroom certifications, and hazardous operations approvals to support missions launching on small to heavy lift vehicles from the two sites. Responses were to address barriers to engaging underserved communities and partnering with related small businesses.
