About this opportunity
NASA Langley Research Center awarded a $821,434 Cost-Plus Fixed Fee task order to Ryzing Technologies LLC for "Pathfinder Tori and Hose Fabrication" services under the Track A Multiple Award Inflatable Aerodynamic Decelerators (IAD) Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity contract. The award was made without competition on August 13, 2025, as a logical follow-on to previously competed work, with a performance period of 182 calendar days. The task order supports the Vulcan Engine Recovery Aeroshell (VERA) flight project and leverages Ryzing's existing expertise in Hypersonic Inflatable Aerodynamic Decelerator (HIAD) technologies, including specialized tooling and fabrication procedures developed through over $350,000 in prior research and development investment. NASA justified the non-competitive award under FAR 16.505(b)(2)(i)(C), citing that competition would result in significant schedule delays and increased costs given Ryzing's unique technical maturity and proven track record in this specialized field.
