About this opportunity
NASA's White Sands Test Facility is seeking comprehensive architectural, engineering, and surveying design services for a new 2,000 square foot building in the 250 Control Area. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration Johnson Space Center intends to issue a sole source contract to Write & Dalbin Architects, Inc. (WDA) based on their exclusive knowledge from completing the original Preliminary Engineering Report and addendum in September 2024. The design work must be completed and stamped by appropriate professional engineers or architects, covering site work, civil engineering, electrical and mechanical requirements, energy management, controls and instrumentation, ancillary test area monitoring, physical security, and information technology. NASA justifies the sole source approach under 10 U.S.C 3204(a)(1) and FAR 6.302-1(a)(2)(iii)(A), stating that selecting another contractor would require substantial duplication of costs to recreate work already obtained from WDA. Interested organizations may submit capabilities and qualifications electronically to Elizabeth Tapia and Fabian Cueto by 12:00 p.m. Mountain Daylight Time on October 8, 2025, though these submissions will be evaluated solely to determine if the sole source justification remains valid.
This procurement does not utilize any set-aside designations and is classified under NAICS code 541310 for Architectural Services and PSC code C211 for Architect and Engineering services. Write & Dalbin Architects, Inc. is positioned as the incumbent contractor, having completed the foundational engineering reports that inform the current requirement. The contract opportunity does not specify award values or budget ranges in the available documentation. The facility design encompasses approximately 2,000 gross square feet and involves complex technical requirements across multiple engineering disciplines. NASA plans to acquire these services as commercial services under FAR Part 12 regulations. The timeline indicates an expedited procurement process with capability submissions due within eight days of the posting date.
