Modified Hydrogen Electric Power System Procurement

NASA's Shared Services Center seeks procurement of a Modified Hydrogen Electric Power System from Teledyne Energy Systems, with a sole source intent under FAR 12.102(a) and a deadline of June 30, 2026 for interested organizations to submit capabilities and qualifications. The procurement is uncompeted unless the government determines, at its sole discretion, to conduct full and open competition based on submitted responses.

Place of performance is NASA Glenn Research Center. The work involves modification and evaluation of Teledyne's Hydrogen Electrical Power System to operate independently at GRC with NASA-supplied reactants, coolant interfaces, and electrical load, targeting a discharge power increase to 1.5 kW minimum. Scope includes coolant subsystem redesign, reactant supply subsystem with passive ejectors, electrical load interface, controls subsystem with safety interlocks, comprehensive Standard Operating Procedure development, as-built hardware documentation, system delivery, up to three days of on-site installation and training, and remote engineering support during NASA's two-month testing window. The effort is structured over approximately four months with three milestone payments corresponding to kick-off presentation (2 weeks), SOP submission (3 months), and system delivery with documentation (4 months).

NAICS code is 335999 (All Other Miscellaneous Electrical Equipment and Component Manufacturing); PSC code is 6150 (Miscellaneous Electric Power and Distribution Equipment). The government intends to acquire commercial items and services under FAR Part 12. Oral communications are not acceptable; submissions must be written and directed to Kacey.l.hickman@nasa.gov by 3:00 p.m. Central Standard Time on June 30. NASA FAR Supplement Clause 1852.215-84 (Ombudsman) applies.
