About this opportunity
NASA Marshall Space Flight Center, via the Shared Services Center, intends to solicit a -120 degree C cooling sample plate for an upgraded Air Jet Erosion Tester, with capability statements due by June 26, 2026. The Government has determined Rtec Instruments is the sole source provider and intends to award sole source under FAR 12.102(a), but will review submitted capability statements to determine whether competitive procurement is warranted; respondents retain the opportunity to demonstrate that the procurement should proceed on a competitive basis.
Work will be performed at Building 4711, Room E176, Marshall Space Flight Center, Huntsville, Alabama. The procurement encompasses supply and installation of a -120 degree C cooled sample holder integrable into an Air Jet Erosion Platform, an upgraded platform incorporating existing 900 degree C heating capability, nozzles, and control PC components, and installation and training services. The requirement addresses cryogenic erosion testing for lunar regolith and Martian dust, simulating solid particle erosion mechanisms relevant to lunar and Martian surface operations.
Period of performance runs from April 2026 through August 2026, with obligation required by August 31, 2026. NAICS 334516 (Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing) and PSC 6640 (Laboratory Equipment and Supplies) apply. Interested organizations must submit written capability statements and qualifications by 4:00 p.m. Central Standard Time on June 26, 2026; oral communications are not acceptable. All correspondence must reference ID 80NSSC26936284Q. NASA FAR Supplement Clause 1852.215-84 (Ombudsman) applies.
