About this opportunity
NASA Shared Services Center is seeking to procure a specialized vacuum pumping system for the Lunar Environment Structural Test Rig #2 at NASA Glenn Research Center. The procurement specifically requires an Edwards Next85D Pump Package and Edwards Vacuum nXDS6i Scroll Pump, along with 24 auxiliary hardware components necessary for a complete vacuum handling system supporting Artemis mission objectives. The system must achieve a vacuum operating pressure of 1*10^-6 Torr at ambient temperature, with a manufacturer's warranty of at least 12 months. The contract will be awarded using a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) methodology, meaning the responsible offeror with the lowest conforming quote that meets all technical requirements will be selected. Quotes are due by May 12, 2025, at 3:00 p.m. CT, and all correspondence must reference Notice ID 80NSSC25901515Q.
The solicitation is exclusively set aside for small businesses within the Air and Gas Compressor Manufacturing (NAICS 333912) category. The procurement is for a single system to be delivered to NASA Glenn Research Center in Cleveland, OH, with a performance period extending through September 30, 2025. While a specific award value is not explicitly stated, the procurement is part of NASA's critical Artemis Exploration Systems Development Mission Directorate (ESDMD) Exploration Habitat Program. Vendors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM), provide two points of contact, include their CAGE code and UEI number, and specify ARO delivery time and shipping details. The brand name requirement is justified by the need to maintain system compatibility, reduce maintenance costs, and avoid potential performance risks associated with changing the vacuum chamber system architecture.
