About this opportunity

This Special Notice from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration Shared Services Center concerns a sole source contract for custom braided triaxial sleeving and cord using Zylon Poly-Benzobisoxazole fiber. The agency intends to award a contract to A&P Technology as the sole provider of this specialized product.

The Notice seeks to inform other organizations of this planned sole source award and provide an opportunity to submit capabilities and qualifications by October 20, 2023 to be considered for conducting this procurement on a competitive basis instead. The Statement of Work provides further details on requirements for approximately 3,900 feet of braided sleeving and delivery of related cord and certification data to NASA Langley Research Center by January 12, 2024. Eligible contractors must demonstrate relevant experience and qualifications for producing these specialized materials by the stated deadline to potentially perform the work competitively rather than through sole source award.
