Aeronautics and Exploration Mission Modeling and Simulation (AEMMS)

NASA has selected Science and Technology Corporation (STC) of Hampton, Virginia, to provide research and development support services for the Systems Analysis Office; the Army Aviation Development Directorate; the Applied Modeling and Simulation Branch, and the Fundamental Modeling and Simulation Branches of the NASA Advanced Super-computing (NAS) Division; and the NASA Aeromechanics Office. The major objectives include modeling, simulation, analysis of systems relevant to the NASA aeronautics, exploration, space operations and science missions; the development and application of technologies for the design and analysis of aerospace vehicles and systems; large-scale numerical simulations in support of NASA and Army mission critical engineering applications; and fundamental advances in numerical methodologies, algorithms, physical models, and application code development at NASA Ames Research Center.

The NASA Aeronautics and Exploration Mission Modeling and Simulation (AEMMS) contract is a cost-plus-fixed-fee (CPFF) hybrid contract that has Definitive Contract Line Items and Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) Contract Line items and consists of a two-year base period and three one-year option periods with a total value of $39,311,355.00. The services to be acquired cannot be performed on a fixed price basis because it is not possible to adequately define the requirements for these services in advance.
