This is a Statement of Work (SOW) for the procurement of titanium raw materials by NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center.

NASA requires the procurement, cutting to size, certification, packaging, and delivery of titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V) and commercially pure titanium raw material in support of propulsion hardware fabrication. The SOW specifies 16 line items consisting of round bars, rectangular bars, plates, sheets, and seamless tubes in various sizes and quantities, with all material required to be of domestic (United States) production. Material shall be supplied in the annealed condition per applicable specifications including MIL-T-9047, MIL-T-9046, AMS 4911, and AMS 4942. All material must be new, unused, traceable to the original domestic producing mill, and free of defects. The contractor must provide Certified Material Test Reports (CMTR) per EN 10204 3.1 and Certificates of Conformance (CoC) documenting compliance with specifications and domestic production requirements. Dimensional tolerances allow for oversize up to +0.25 inches, and material must be cut by saw, waterjet, or equivalent methods without heat-affected zones. Cutting and finishing operations must be performed in the United States.

Partial shipments are authorized as material becomes available, with all items required to be delivered within six weeks of contract award. The contractor must provide a delivery schedule within ten business days of award and notify NASA of any anticipated delays within five business days. Each shipment requires itemized packing lists, CMTRs, and CoCs. The Period of Performance is December 1, 2026 through January 31, 2027. Contractors must be either a domestic producing mill or an authorized metals distributor with full heat or lot traceability to domestic producing mills; brokers and third-party intermediaries lacking mill traceability are ineligible. All material is subject to NASA receipt inspection, documentation review, and independent verification of chemistry, mechanical properties, dimensions, or country of origin. Nonconforming material shall be rejected and replaced at no additional cost to NASA, with shipping costs borne by the contractor.
