About this opportunity

NASA's National Shared Services Center (NSSC) is seeking to procure Spare Bellows Actuators for Neutral Gas and Ion Mass Spectrometers through a potential sole source contract with Eagle Picher. The procurement will be managed by NASA/NSSC, with performance to be conducted at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, and will utilize commercial acquisition procedures under Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Parts 12 and 13. Interested organizations are invited to submit their capabilities and qualifications in writing by 11:59 a.m. Eastern Standard Time on April 10, 2025, with the understanding that these submissions will be evaluated solely to determine whether the procurement will be conducted on a competitive basis. The government retains full discretion in making this determination, and only written submissions will be accepted. The procurement falls under NAICS Code 334419 for Other Electronic Component Manufacturing, and NASA Clause 1852.215-84 (Ombudsman) is applicable to this acquisition.

The pre-solicitation notice indicates no specific set-aside designations for this contract opportunity. Eagle Picher is identified as the sole manufacturer and intended sole source contractor under FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i), suggesting they are the incumbent and likely awardee. While specific award values or budget ranges are not disclosed in the documentation, the contract appears focused on procuring specialized spare parts for scientific instrumentation. The procurement timeline suggests a relatively rapid acquisition process, with the pre-solicitation notice posted on April 7, 2025, and responses due by April 10, 2025. The targeted procurement involves laboratory equipment and supplies, specifically categorized under Product Service Code 6640, which encompasses laboratory equipment and related components. The short response window and sole source indication imply a streamlined, urgent procurement process for these critical scientific instrument components.
