About this opportunity

NASA's Shared Services Center is conducting a sole-source justification notice for 15 composite rotor blades under FAR 12.102(a), with a capability submission deadline of July 17, 2026 at 12:00 p.m. Central Standard Time. The notice declares Sensenich Technologies, Inc. the sole provider of the required blades, but invites interested organizations to submit written capabilities and qualifications by the deadline; the government will evaluate responses solely to determine whether to compete the procurement, with the final decision to remain competitive left entirely to government discretion.

The requirement calls for three sets of five ROAMX blades manufactured using existing Sensenich molds and ply layup instructions. The first set will feature outboard ply orientation changed to 45 degrees; the subsequent two sets will incorporate structural adjustments determined through testing and contractor collaboration. Manufacturing must meet strict tolerances: outboard thickness to 0.005 inches or better with minimum 0.009 inches while preserving fibers, and root thickness within plus or minus 0.005 inches without machining. Work will be performed at the contractor's facility, with the first blade set due within 15 weeks of contract award and all deliverables completed within 8 months. NASA Ames Research Center is the performance site. The government will furnish CAD files and manufacturing instructions upon request. Commercial item procedures under FAR Part 12 apply. NAICS 336413 (Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing); PSC AJ12.
