Astromaterials Glovebox Systems - Design & Fabrication (A-BOX)
Solicitation # 80JSC026A-BOX
This notice, issued by NASA’s Johnson Space Center under solicitation number 80JSC026A-BOX, is a Request for Information (RFI) for the design, fabrication, testing, delivery, and installation of controlled-atmosphere glovebox systems to support the Astromaterials Research and Exploration Science Curation Facility. The systems are intended for handling lunar and planetary samples, including those from Artemis missions, and must operate in ambient, cold (−85 to −20 °C), and ultra-cold/cryogenic (< −85 °C) environments while maintaining inert atmosphere conditions. Technical requirements are aligned with the American Glovebox Society Guidelines AGS-G001-2007 (3rd Edition), and compliance with quality standards such as ISO9001, AS9100, and NQA-1 is mandatory. The RFI seeks industry input on feasibility, capabilities, and cost estimates, with no formal proposals required. Access to the technical library containing detailed requirements is granted through SAM.gov after completing a two-step verification process and submitting a formal request form to NASA, with all requestors responsible for U.S. export control compliance. The response deadline has been extended to August 5, 2026, at 4:00 PM Central Time. The RFI emphasizes small business participation and solicit feedback on realistic subcontracting goals, barriers to entry for small businesses, and strategies to enhance involvement such as modularizing scope or encouraging teaming arrangements. NASA is considering potential set-asides for Small Business, Small Disadvantaged Business, HUBZone, Veteran-Owned, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned, and Women-Owned Small Businesses. Organizational conflicts of interest (OCI) are a significant concern due to the nature of prior involvement in astromaterials handling and related design work; respondents must disclose any potential OCI and propose mitigation strategies, though NASA’s review at this stage does not constitute formal approval or assurance. Responses must be submitted electronically via email to the designated contracting officer and contract specialist, formatted according to Attachment II—Capabilities Questions and Responses—which addresses small business utilization, OCI, technical capability, and business considerations. The place of performance is the ARES Curation Facility in Houston, Texas, and final delivery and installation will occur there. No contract value, pricing, or award criteria are provided, as this is purely an information-gathering phase to inform future procurement strategy. Any information submitted is treated as voluntarily provided under FOIA and will not be publicly

Z2DA--Renovate Space for Patient Care Improvements
Solicitation # 36C24626B0038
The Network Contracting Office 6 is preparing to issue a restricted Invitation for Bid for the renovation of approximately 3,500 square feet of clinical space on the first floor of Building 47 at the Western North Carolina VA Health Care System. The project involves upgrading ENT and Podiatry patient care areas, establishing a new waiting area, modernizing exam rooms, expanding storage, and ensuring all work complies with current building codes and VA design standards. The work must adhere strictly to the construction drawings and VA Final Bid Specifications. The contract is classified under NAICS code 236220 with a size standard of $45 million, and the estimated value ranges between $1 million and $2 million. The solicitation will be issued as a 100% set-aside exclusively for Service-Disabled Veteran Owned Small Businesses, but participation is contingent upon sufficient interest; failure to attract qualified SDVOSBs may lead to cancellation of the set-aside. Interested firms must be certified in the SBA’s database and registered in SAM.gov to be eligible for award, with no paper copies of documents provided. A Pre-Bid Site Visit is tentatively scheduled for September 15, 2026, at 2:00 PM EST, and potential bidders must RSVP by September 7, 2026, via email to Quentin Norvell at the VA. Attendance is not mandatory but strongly recommended and bidders are responsible for bringing all necessary personnel, tools, and materials. The formal solicitation is expected to be released on August 27, 2026, with bids due by September 30, 2026, although the deadline posted in the data reflects an earlier date which may be a placeholder or error. All contract documents, including amendments, will be accessible solely through SAM.gov, and bidders must regularly monitor the site for updates. No reimbursement will be provided for costs associated with site visits or bid preparation, and failure to register in SAM.gov or verify SDVOSB status will result in disqualification from award consideration.
