Johnson Space Center Mission Enabling Services Contract

NASA Johnson Space Center established this Master IDIQ on October 1, 2022, to provide development, sustainment, and maintenance of mission-enabling applications and services supporting JSC and affiliated organizations; ordering authority extends through September 30, 2027, leaving approximately fourteen months for new task orders. The vehicle succeeded the Joint Operations and Integrated Systems Technology (JOIST) contract and carries partial small-business set-aside designations.

The contract consolidates three service lines under a hybrid baseline structure: Baseline A funds the NASA Aircraft Management Information System (NAMIS), Baseline B supports Flight Operations Directorate mission-enabling services, and an IDIQ component covers management, mission support, and advanced research and development technology. Work spans specialized and highly specialized applications and services aligned to JSC flight operations requirements. Baselines operate under cost-reimbursable arrangements with fixed fees; IDIQ task orders are issued as either cost-plus-fixed-fee or firm-fixed-price at Government discretion.

The solicitation (80JSC021MESC, posted February 2021) indicated anticipated set-asides for Small Business, 8(a), Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB), Service Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SD-VOSB), Economically Disadvantaged Women-Owned Small Business (ED-WOSB), and HUB Zone businesses, with the Government reserving the right to structure awards based on capability statement responses. The NAICS code is 541512 (Computer Systems Design Services) with a size standard of $30 million.

The source does not provide awardee names, task-order portfolio metrics, obligated-value figures, ordering velocity trends, typical task-order values or durations, or geographic concentration data. The vehicle is actively in its performance window and remains available for pursuit; however, limited public ordering visibility constrains market assessment. Interested parties should monitor procurement.jsc.nasa.gov/mesc/ and SAM.gov for release of individual task order opportunities.
