Justification for Other than Full and Open Competition 80MSFC21CA010 - redacted.pdf

This justification provides support for awarding the Flight-Like Advanced Material Reactors contract 80MSFC21CA010 through other than full and open competition. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration Marshall Space Flight Center solicited proposals for developing advanced material reactors to support ongoing research. An unknown vendor was awarded the contract for an unknown amount on January 17, 2023 based on this vendor being the only responsible source and no other supplies or services meeting requirements. The justification cites the need to build upon previous research conducted by this vendor and the lack of other qualified sources able to meet delivery requirements as rationale for the sole source award.
