About this IDV

General Electric Company's GE Aviation division, operating as GE Edison Works, was awarded a single-award Indefinite Delivery contract valued at $33.0 million by NASA's Langley Research Center on January 28, 2021, with an ultimate completion date of July 27, 2026. The contract, with no small business set-aside designation, is funded through the civilian space agency and covers research and development activities related to hypersonic technology development, specifically focusing on hot structures and turbine engine assessment for hypersonic turbine-based combined cycle (TBCC) propulsion systems. The scope includes design, development, and fabrication of ceramic matrix composite components. Work is performed at GE's Wyoming, Ohio facility under various pricing structures, primarily cost-plus-fixed-fee and cost-no-fee arrangements.

The contract vehicle has generated 19 delivery orders since award, collectively valued at approximately $18.2 million, addressing discrete research and manufacturing initiatives supporting NASA's hypersonic propulsion advancement objectives. Delivery order work encompasses fabrication and characterization of silicon carbide/silicon carbide and carbon/silicon carbide composite materials using chemical vapor infiltration and melt infiltration densification processes; design and manufacturing of ceramic matrix composite aerodynamic control surfaces and heat exchanger components; F101 turbine engine cocooning design studies and turbine engine assessment work for hypersonic applications; development of dual flow path nozzles for turbine-based combined cycle propulsion systems; and fabrication of reusable ceramic matrix composite hot structures and actively cooled engine components. This contract leverages GE Aviation's established expertise in advanced aerospace materials, propulsion system development, and composite manufacturing technologies in support of NASA's mission to advance next-generation hypersonic flight technologies and materials innovation.
