About this opportunity
NASA's Shared Services Center (NASA/NSSC) has issued a Special Notice soliciting mentoring services regarding the SABER algorithms and data products for the TIMED satellite mission. The agency intends to award a sole source contract to Space Environment Technologies, LLC under FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i), having determined that this firm is the sole provider capable of delivering the required mentoring services. The procurement will be conducted as a commercial acquisition under FAR Parts 12 and 13, with the work performed at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center. Performance is classified under NAICS code 541690 (Other Scientific and Technical Consulting Services). The Special Notice invites interested organizations to submit capabilities and qualifications statements to demonstrate why the procurement should be competed on a full and open basis rather than through sole source award.
The objective of this procurement is to secure advisory and technical expertise in four primary areas: knowledge transfer through structured mentoring on SABER retrieval algorithms and data products, technical guidance for reprocessing the complete 24-year SABER dataset beginning in late 2025, validation support for Version 3 products, and scientific documentation through peer-reviewed publications. The submission deadline for capabilities and qualifications is March 18, 2026 at 3:00 p.m. Central Standard Time, with responses required in written format only. While no specific eligibility restrictions are outlined in the notice, interested contractors must demonstrate relevant technical qualifications and experience with SABER algorithms and data products to be considered. The period of performance extends from March 1, 2026 through September 30, 2026, with work to be performed primarily at the contractor's facilities supplemented by virtual coordination with NASA Goddard Space Flight Center personnel and the SABER science team.
