About this vehicle

NASA Langley Research Center awarded a fully small-business-set-aside Master IDIQ for Reliance Consolidated Models IV (RECOM IV) on January 29, 2013, with ordering authority that closed on October 30, 2018. The vehicle has been succeeded by Reliance Consolidated Models V, awarded November 1, 2018. This vehicle is no longer active and cannot support new orders.

The vehicle contracted design, analysis, and fabrication of precision aerospace models and developmental test hardware, including wind tunnel models, rotorcraft testbeds, rotor blades, structural components, and instrumentation systems for subsonic, transonic, and hypersonic testing. Work spans mechanical and electrical/electronic hardware elements, incorporating composites, smart materials, and rapid prototyping techniques using plastics, polymers, and metals.

Advanced Technologies, Inc. dominates the award base, holding 27 of 33 task orders and $10.6 million of the $11.3 million combined potential value. Micro Craft Inc. received 6 orders totaling $667 thousand. All 33 task orders were fully obligated against the $14 million shared ceiling. NASA Langley Research Center placed 30 orders ($10.6 million); NASA Glenn Research Center placed 3 orders ($699 thousand). All task orders carried small-business set-asides.

Task orders ranged from $9,947.83 (laser tracking measurements) to $2.166 million (10 percent active flow control common research model). Most were firm fixed-price delivery orders; a few incorporated cost-plus-fixed-fee pricing. Work included winged compound rotorcraft wind tunnel testbeds, rotor blades and hubs, Common Research Model variants at multiple scales, juncture flow models, acoustic baseline hardware, drag reduction models, curved duct test sections, and specialized support equipment for NASA wind tunnels. Completion dates typically fell 6 to 24 months after award. Orders peaked in 2015 and 2016 (9 awards each year), then declined to 2 orders in 2018 as the vehicle approached its ordering deadline.

Description

NASA Langley Research Center (LaRC) has awarded a Master IDIQ for Reliance Consolidated Models IV (RECOM IV). The goal is to provide high quality modeling in order to meet the mission objectives of NASA. Models consist of both mechanical and electrical/electronic hardware elements. Models may incorporate the use of new technologies such as smart materials, or new processes such as stereolithography and rapid prototyping using various materials from plastics, polymers and metals.
