About this opportunity

NASA Shared Services Center is soliciting quotes on behalf of NASA Glenn Research Center for low-stress grinding and machining of government-furnished sheet specimens, with quotes due November 13, 2026 and written questions due November 11, 2026 at 12:00 p.m. Central Time. The set-aside is Total Small Business, and offerors must be registered in SAM.gov. The RFQ is 80NSSC27948089Q, under NAICS 332710 (Machine Shops) and PSC H199.

Work covers 10-15 alloys, including Ni/Co-based superalloys, Ti alloys, and Nb alloys. Rough machining is by water jet or CNC milling, followed by low-stress grinding that removes at least 0.003 inches to reach final dimensions, then longitudinal polishing to an 8 microinch root mean square finish. Offerors must submit detailed technical descriptions of their rough machining methods, equipment and fixturing for low-stress grinding of flat surfaces and edges, and longitudinal polishing methods. Quotes without these descriptions will be deemed technically unacceptable.

Specimens are machined in batches over 24 months. Initial batches contain a minimum of 36 specimens and a maximum of approximately 200 specimens. Pricing is firm-fixed with delivery FOB Destination. Machined specimens ship to Christopher Kantzos at NASA Glenn Research Center in Cleveland, Ohio. Award goes to the responsible offeror submitting the lowest-priced, technically acceptable quotation, provided the price is determined fair and reasonable. Questions must be submitted in writing to Sara Jusino-Terry at SARA.A.JUSINO-TERRY@NASA.GOV, as telephone inquiries are not accepted.
