About this IDV

NASA Langley Research Center awarded a multiple-award indefinite-delivery contract to Miller Scientific Incorporated, doing business as Heetshield Inc., with a ceiling of $91.975 million on October 1, 2022, to design, manufacture, and test inflatable aerodynamic decelerators and flexible thermal protection systems including support for aeroshell integration and testing. The contract is set aside for total small business.

Performance occurs in Flagstaff, Arizona. The original solicitation anticipated a 10-year period of performance divided into three technical tracks: Track A for inflatable structures design and testing (unrestricted), Track B for flexible thermal protection systems (small business set-aside), and Track C for gas generator inflation systems (small business set-aside). Multiple awards were anticipated across all three tracks, with up to three contracts for Track A and two each for Tracks B and C. The contract authorizes both cost-plus-fixed-fee and firm-fixed-price task orders and uses NAICS code 541715.

The contract period extends through September 30, 2027. Heetshield Inc. is a self-certified small disadvantaged business. Recent task-order activity includes a delivery order issued by NASA Langley Research Center on August 18, 2025, valued at $152,870 and priced firm fixed price, for flexible thermal protection systems design, manufacturing, and testing with ultimate completion on July 16, 2027.
