Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) Frequency Reference System (FRS) Flight

Solicitation # NASA-GSFC-LISA-FRS-FLIGHT

NASA Goddard Space Flight Center is seeking the design, fabrication, qualification, and delivery of flight Frequency Reference System (FRS) hardware for the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) mission. The requirement consists of three flight models and one flight spare, each comprising an optical reference cavity (FRS-O) and frequency-locking electronics (FRS-E). These subsystems utilize the Pound-Drever-Hall technique to achieve the picometer-scale measurement stability required for the mission. Due to the aggressive delivery schedule and the need for specific flight heritage and supplier relationships, NASA intends to issue a sole source contract to BAE Systems Space and Mission Systems Inc. The project follows a strict delivery timeline with flight units scheduled for delivery between February 9, 2029, and March 11, 2030, with the flight spare due by May 31, 2030. The contractor is responsible for the full lifecycle of the hardware, including integration, testing, and minimal post-delivery support. Key technical requirements include adherence to ISO 7 cleanliness standards for the FRS-O, compliance with the LISA Contamination Control Plan, and the execution of Comprehensive Performance Tests and TVAC environmental testing. The contract structure includes cost-reimbursement for non-recurring engineering, firm-fixed-price for production, and time-and-materials for special study task orders.
