Fabrication of quantity 8 of the FIGARO 64 element 5G phased array

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration Shared Services Center published a Special Notice to fabricate eight 64-element 5G phased array printed circuit boards. The notice seeks the fabrication of eight fully functioning and tested PCBs meeting specific workmanship and fabrication standards within 30 days of contract execution upon delivery of final design files.

The Special Notice provides details for a sole source contract opportunity with NASA for the fabrication of eight Figaro 64 element 5G phased arrays. Interested parties have until January 9, 2024 to submit capabilities and qualifications to NASA to be considered for conducting the procurement on a competitive basis instead of the sole source award, though the determination to compete the effort is at the agency's discretion. The work will be performed at NASA's Glenn Research Center, with Cara Craft serving as the primary point of contact for any questions. Fabricators must have experience with Ohmega-ply resistor material and realizing micro-via and mechanical drill designs within specified dimensions to be eligible.
