The solicitation is exclusively set aside for small businesses and requires vendors to be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM). The total order includes multiple quantities of specific Schneider Electric components, such as 5 MODICON X80 EIO Drop Adapters, 9 X80 Racks, and 8 Isolated Analog Input/Output Modules, with an additional 2 hours of application engineering services. Delivery is specified as 30 days After Receipt of Order (ARO) to NASA Glenn Research Center in Building 113, located in Cleveland, Ohio 44135. The procurement stems from NASA Glenn Research Center's standardization of Schneider Electric PLC automation hardware throughout its aerospace test facilities, with the hardware required to be new, in original packaging, and identical to existing equipment. While specific award values are redacted, the solicitation emphasizes the critical nature of obtaining precise, compatible hardware to prevent potential test schedule delays and additional training costs.
