About this opportunity

NASA Johnson Space Center has issued a Limited / Sole Source Justification Notice to award a sole-source contract to Ensign Bickford Aerospace and Defense Company for the modification, testing, and performance evaluation of explosive transfer lines and associated manifolds. These specialized components are critical for NASA's ongoing research and exploration programs. The total estimated value of the contract is $344,410 with a 12-month period of performance. NASA has determined that Ensign Bickford, as the original supplier, possesses the proprietary knowledge and design details necessary to meet the agency's requirements, which cannot be easily recreated by an alternate source. The justification cites 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) as the statutory authority for the sole-source award.
