This Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Langley Research Center to BAE Systems Space & Mission Systems Inc. to support the Tropospheric Emissions Monitoring of Pollution (TEMPO) instrument project. The contract, which has a ceiling value of $77,347,734, covers three main efforts: Phase A concept development and Phase B preliminary design, Phase C critical design and development including fabrication and delivery of the TEMPO instrument, and an indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ) requirement for on-orbit commissioning, sustaining engineering support, and other technical support.
Under this IDC, NASA has issued several delivery orders to BAE Systems, including $151,431 for TEMPO instrument launch and operations readiness planning, $10,159,196 for instrument integration and testing, and other awards for storage, monitoring, handling, and simulator support. The TEMPO instrument is a NASA science investigation with the objective of providing the first space-based instrument to monitor major air pollutants across the North American continent hourly during daytime. This contract supports NASA's goals in Earth observation and atmospheric monitoring without any set-aside designations.
