About this vehicle
NASA Johnson Space Center established the Lunar Terrain Vehicle Services Master IDIQ on March 28, 2024, with ordering authority extending to March 27, 2037, providing ten years and eight months of remaining procurement window. The vehicle contracts development and delivery of human-class rovers to extend extravehicular activity exploration range on the lunar surface, with a combined potential value of $443.3 million across eight task orders to date.
Ordering momentum shows steady activity: three task orders in 2024, three in 2025, and two awarded through May 2026. The vehicle remains active with $136.1 million obligated (31% of combined potential value), indicating early-stage execution against the full ceiling. Recent activity concentrates on two major mission campaigns: the High Achievability Mission Campaign, delivering phased mission-unique task orders for near-term lunar exploration capability (two orders awarded May 26, 2026, each exceeding $218 million in ceiling value with firm fixed pricing and completion by May 2031), and Special Studies for LTVS Capabilities, evaluating uncrewed logistics transfer modifications (three orders awarded July 15, 2025, ranging from $397,280 to $403,590 in value with November 2025 completion). Earlier task orders in September 2024 addressed pre-priced evaluation of NASA mission requirements assessment, ranging from $893,184 to $1.1 million each.
Competition is highly concentrated. Lunar Outpost Inc. and Venturi Astrolab Inc. each hold three task orders with roughly equal dominance—Lunar Outpost at $221.5 million combined potential value and Venturi Astrolab at $220.2 million. Intuitive Machines, LLC holds two orders valued at $1.6 million combined. All task orders are unrestricted (no set-aside). Customer concentration is absolute: all eight task orders fund NASA Johnson Space Center directly.
Task order pricing is firm fixed, with a spread from five-hundred-thousand-dollar study efforts to two-hundred-million-dollar-plus development campaigns. The vehicle serves as the sole identified procurement mechanism for LTV platform advancement, with no stated predecessors or successors in the contract family.
