AI Contract Overview
NASA/MSFC is seeking the development of a high performance, lightweight 100-lbf thruster for an in-space propulsion system as part of the Robotic Lunar Lander Development Project. The agency intends to award this contract to Pratt and Whitney Space Propulsion on a sole-source basis, utilizing flight heritage hardware to ensure a low risk and low cost approach. The project requires a thruster with a thrust-to-weight ratio of at least 67 lbf/lbm that has been successfully demonstrated with monomethylhydrazine and MON-25 cold propellants. The development timeline is approximately one year from the date of contract execution and must include design verification tests conducted in simulated vacuum space environments. While the government intends to proceed with a single source, interested organizations were invited to submit capabilities and qualifications by November 15, 2012, to determine if the procurement should be conducted on a competitive basis. This acquisition is not for a commercial item under FAR Part 12 and is subject to the NASA Ombudsman clause.
