About this opportunity
NASA Armstrong Flight Research Center (AFRC) issued a Limited/Sole Source Justification Notice to extend contract NND17AL01C with Kay and Associates Inc. for Center Aerospace Ground Equipment Support Services (AGESS). The contract provides comprehensive aircraft support services including critical/emergency maintenance, mission support, aircraft battery service, life support, proof load testing, fuel delivery, fueling, N2 servicing, equipment training, and inspections. NASA determined that transitioning to a new contractor would disrupt operational continuity and generate unnecessary duplicate costs, after conducting a market survey on SAM.gov that received responses from 6 companies. The extension will run from February 1, 2025 through July 31, 2026, comprising a 12-month base period and three 2-month option periods, with pricing utilizing existing collective bargaining agreement labor rates and NASA-approved escalation rates of 3.70% for 2025 and 3.45% for 2026. The justification notes that while multiple capable sources exist under NAICS 336413, the immediate need is to maintain continuous aerospace ground equipment support while preparing for a future consolidated Flight Operations Support (FOS) contract.
