This Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Kennedy Space Center to United Launch Services, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of United Launch Alliance, L.L.C. The contract, valued at a ceiling of $15,000,000,000, provides a broad range of launch services to support NASA's planetary, Earth-observing, exploration, and scientific satellite missions. The contract vehicle, known as the NASA Launch Services II (NLS II) program, has a minimum capability to deliver payloads weighing approximately 550 pounds or more to a minimum 124-mile-high circular orbit with a launch inclination of 28.5 degrees. However, the launch service provider may offer a range of vehicles to meet higher payload weight and orbit requirements.

The NLS II contract is a multiple-award IDC that runs through December 31, 2032. It enables NASA to task United Launch Services, LLC to provide mission-specific launch services, including vehicle integration, assembly, testing, and launch operations. This contract vehicle supports critical national security space missions and NASA programs, leveraging United Launch Alliance's Atlas V and Delta IV launch vehicle fleets. United Launch Services, LLC has also been awarded other significant federal IDCs, such as the $3.4 billion National Security Space Launch Phase 2 program and positions on the $986 million Venture-Class Acquisition of Dedicated and Rideshare Launch Services (VADR) and Orbital Services Program 4 (OSP-4) multiple-award IDIQ contracts.
