About this opportunity
This Special Notice was published by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Johnson Space Center regarding their intent to award a sole-source contract. NASA Johnson Space Center requires eight units of TTE-End System Space 3U cPCI engineering development units and eight units of TTE-RearIO 3U cPCI cards from TTTech North America Inc.
The Special Notice aims to procure these specialized Time Triggered Ethernet hardware components from TTTech North America Inc. on a sole-source basis to support NASA's Gateway and PPE software development efforts. Interested parties had until July 14, 2023 to submit capability statements if they believed they could meet the requirement, though no reimbursement for preparation costs would be provided. As TTTech North America Inc. is the sole producer of this technology and it must be compatible with Gateway flight systems, NASA determined a sole-source award was justified to ensure development timelines are met and proper training is provided for critical Gateway software.

MATERIAL/DESCRIPTION
QUANTITY - 8
14033: TTE-End System Space 3U cPCI (EDU) enables a connection of a data processing hardware (CPUs, FPGAs, MCUs) to a TTEthernet network. This Engineering Development Unit for ground functional testing is equipped with a commercial cPCI connector for usage in off-the-shelf 3U cPCI chassis.
QUANTITY -8
13866:TTE-RearIO 3U cPCI (EDU) provides physical interfaces of connected end system or switch cards via the RearIO backplane pins. This allows to use the cards with a commercial chassis and to connect other devices directly by using standard cables.
TTTech North America is the contracted provider of the flight network equipment for the multiple modules of the Gateway Spacecraft. They are the sole producer of this specialized Time Triggered Ethernet technology, and they do not provide their products through any authorized resellers. Use of any other technology would not be compatible with the Gateway flight systems and would not allow the Gateway software development teams to develop, integrate, verify, or test critical software components for the Gateway flight system.
This synopsis does not constitute a solicitation; however, if any interested party believes they can meet the above requirement, it may submit a statement of capabilities. The statement of capabilities must be submitted in writing and must contain clear and convincing evidence that competition of this requirement would be advantageous to the Government. Please note that if parties choose to respond, the Government will not provide reimbursement for any costs incurred from the preparation and submission of documents.
Capability statements shall be submitted by e-mail ONLY as a Microsoft Word or Adobe PDF attachment no later than July 14, 2023 to the following address: kavina.patel@nasa.gov
