About this opportunity
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration Langley Research Center issued a Limited/Sole Source Justification Notice to increase the ceiling value of Contract 80LARC21D0002 with General Electric Company by $20 million, bringing the total potential value to $33 million, to continue developing hypersonic technologies through proprietary carbon matrix ceramic materials, F-101 engine technology, and design support critical to NASA and Department of Defense research needs over the remaining four years of performance. NASA determined only General Electric possesses the required materials and engine technically qualified to satisfy the agencies' hypersonic research requirements.
Notice text
Pursuant to Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 6.302-1(a)(2)(iii), "Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy Agency requirements," NASA Langley Research Center (LaRC) awarded a modification on May 16, 2022 to increase the ceiling value under the Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) Contract 80LARC21D0002 with the General Electric Company (GE). The ceiling value was increased by $20M up to a total of $33M to meet future mission needs through the end of the current period of performance. A contract modification to increase the ceiling was necessary due to accommodate unanticipated budget increases and demand for hypersonic research. The attached Justification for Other than Full and Open Competition provides LaRC's rationale for this action.
Awarded contract 80LARC21D0002 to unknown vendor for unknown amount on 2022-05-16.
