About this opportunity
NASA's Shared Services Center issued a sources-sought notice for a vacuum-rated ejector-driven reactant manifold assembly on August 24, 2026, with a capability statement deadline of August 26, 2026 at 4:00 p.m. Central Standard Time. The notice signals NASA's intent to award a sole-source contract to Teledyne Energy Systems, Inc. under FAR 12.102(a) authority, but invites interested organizations to submit written capability statements challenging the sole-source determination and demonstrating competitive viability.
The manifold assembly is required for NASA's Sustained Energy for the Lunar surface ENabled by Electrochemistry (SELENE) Project. The Statement of Work specifies manufacturing of a vacuum-rated ejector-driven reactant manifold component for a 64-cell EDR fuel cell stack, with performance at NASA Glenn Research Center. Deliverables span five months from award: a kick-off presentation within two weeks, a manufacturing readiness review presentation by month three, a long lead time procurement report by month four, and an EDR manifold manufacturing report by month five.
The Government will evaluate capability statements solely to assess competitiveness; quotes are not acceptable at this stage. The final decision to proceed competitively or sole-source remains at Government discretion. The procurement is coded to NAICS 541990 (All Other Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services) and PSC AJ11. All correspondence must reference the notice ID (6a8c87e25075ddd19a0f4ca6) in the subject line.
