About this opportunity
NASA Johnson Space Center has awarded a sole-source modification to Axiom Space, Inc. under a limited sources justification, adding Contract Line Item Number (CLIN) 5, Hardware Production and Delivery, to Contract 80JSC022DA022 (P00015), the Exploration Extravehicular Activity Services (xEVAS) contract, on October 22, 2026. The notice was posted October 28, 2026, with no set-aside used. It is classified under NAICS 336414 and PSC 1675.
NASA cites 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1), only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements, and states that the notice is published under FAR 5.301 and FAR 6.305. Axiom is the only xEVAS contractor in active development of a lunar-capable xEVA system and the only one capable of meeting NASA's technical, integration, compatibility, and schedule requirements. NASA states that award to any other source would duplicate costs to the Government and delay agency requirements. Market research, published as a SAM.gov notice on June 11, 2026, identified no alternative source able to meet those requirements.
CLIN 5 covers xEVA system hardware production and delivery, including development, upgrades, enhancements, sustainment, maintenance, repair, and refurbishment. Its period of performance runs from modification issuance through the xEVAS ordering period end date of May 30, 2032. The action does not extend the contract period of performance.
Notice text
This notice provides the Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (JOFOC) supporting the sole-source modification of Contract No. 80JSC022DA022 (P00015) with Axiom Space, Inc. to add Contract Line Item Number (CLIN) 5, Hardware Production and Delivery, to the Exploration Extravehicular Activity Services (xEVAS) contract. CLIN 5 provides for xEVA system hardware production and delivery, including development, upgrades, enhancements, sustainment, maintenance, repair, and refurbishment. The CLIN 5 period of performance extends from contract modification issuance through the xEVAS ordering period end date of May 30, 2032. This action does not extend the contract period of performance.
NASA Johnson Space Center modified Contract 80JSC022DA022 with Axiom Space, Inc. on October 22, 2026, under the authority of 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1), "Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements." Axiom is the only responsible source capable of meeting NASA's technical, integration, compatibility, and schedule requirements because it is the only xEVAS contractor currently in active development of a lunar-capable xEVA system. Award to any other source would result in substantial duplication of cost to the Government and unacceptable delays in fulfilling agency requirements.
NASA conducted market research and published a notice on SAM.gov on June 11, 2026. NASA evaluated available information and determined that no alternative source could satisfy the agency's integration, compatibility, and schedule requirements.
This notice is published in accordance with FAR 5.301 and FAR 6.305.
Awarded contract 80JSC022DA022 to unknown vendor for unknown amount on 2026-10-22.
