About this IDV
NASA's Langley Research Center awarded an indefinite-delivery, multiple-award contract to CFD Research Corporation for $139.9 million on October 1, 2022, to design, manufacture, and test inflatable aerodynamic decelerator structures, including support for aeroshell integration and testing. This contract represents Track A of NASA's Inflatable Aerodynamic Decelerators program, which is unrestricted and open to all contractors; Tracks B and C under the same parent program are set aside for small businesses.
CFD Research is a small, for-profit engineering and technology firm headquartered in Huntsville, Alabama, specializing in computational fluid dynamics, artificial intelligence, and advanced research and development.
The contract period extends through September 30, 2027. Work encompasses design, manufacturing, and testing of inflatable structures with integration and testing support for aeroshell components. The originating solicitation, posted as a pre-solicitation notice on November 8, 2021, anticipated multiple awards under Track A, with up to three contracts anticipated for this technical track. The original solicitation contemplated a 10-year period of performance with both cost-plus-fixed-fee and firm-fixed-price task orders; the awarded contract ceiling reflects the negotiated value against that framework.
NAICS code 541715 applies.
