Study contract for fluid quick disconnectors

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration Shared Services Center has issued a Special Notice for a study contract focused on fluid quick disconnectors. This opportunity is posted as an unrestricted procurement with no set-aside designation, indicating it is open to all qualified contractors regardless of socioeconomic status. The notice was published on August 29, 2025, and falls under the NAICS code 541512 for Computer Systems Design Services, though it also carries a PSC classification for IT and Telecom Mobile Device Support Services. The opportunity is accompanied by two government files containing the capability statement and statement of work details. The contracting opportunity represents a civilian agency requirement rather than a defense-related procurement.

The Special Notice serves as a market research tool to identify potential contractors capable of performing study work related to fluid quick disconnector systems, likely for aerospace applications given NASA's mission focus. Interested contractors have a brief response window, with submissions due by September 4, 2025, providing only six days from the posting date. The attached statement of work document presumably contains detailed technical requirements and project objectives that potential contractors must review to assess their capability to perform the work. Contractors seeking to participate should demonstrate relevant experience in fluid systems analysis, quick disconnect technologies, or related aerospace engineering disciplines. The capability statement posting suggests NASA is gathering information about contractor qualifications and technical approaches before potentially moving forward with a formal solicitation process.
