About this opportunity

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) issued a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (JOFOC) for the procurement of the Atlas Devices Counterweight-Offload Astronaut Sensor, Telemetry & Electronics Rig (COASTER) and associated support services for the Johnson Space Center. The sole-source justification is based on Atlas Devices being the only global provider of human-rated articulated jib arm sensor and suspension systems that uniquely interfaces with NASA space suits, including xEMU, Mark III, and EMU. A notice was published on Sam.gov on November 21, 2024, with responses due December 6, 2024, during which only one company (T-Fox Inc) expressed interest but was found incapable of meeting the requirements. The contract (80TECH25PA008) was awarded on February 18, 2025, with services to be provided through September 30, 2025, for use in telemetry-based suited and unsuited gravity offload testing. While the specific contract amount was not disclosed, the procurement will support critical testing capabilities at NASA's Space Vehicle Mockup Facility.
