The Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory LLC (APL) was awarded an indefinite delivery contract by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Marshall Space Flight Center, a civilian agency, with a $4 billion ceiling value. The Aerospace Research, Development, and Engineering Support (ARDES) II indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contract enables the government to issue task orders for a wide range of research, engineering, and technical services to support NASA's space science, exploration, and technology development missions.
Under this contract, APL has been awarded numerous delivery orders for specific projects and initiatives, including the ARTEMIS Guidance, Navigation & Control (GN&C) support services, Extended New Horizons Mission Support, lunar surface 3G/5G communications development, and a variety of scientific research and modeling efforts related to NASA's planetary science, Earth observation, and space weather programs. These task orders span a range of contract types, including cost-plus-fixed-fee, cost-plus-award-fee, and firm-fixed-price, and do not utilize any set-aside designations. The work is primarily performed at APL's facility in Laurel, Maryland.
