AI Contract Overview

NASA Shared Services Center is seeking information from industry sources capable of providing ASME-certified high-pressure storage vessels designed for hydrogen, methane, and nitrogen storage at up to 15,000 PSIG, with a total capacity of approximately 1,250 cubic feet. Vendors are invited to propose either an assembly pack configuration of four vertically stacked vessels mounted on an I-beam support structure with 1-inch medium pressure end connections and integrated lifting points, or an individual vessel option consisting of a single 15,000 PSIG ASME-certified tube with a 6-inch R-Con connection. All vessels must be manufactured from SA372 Grade J or an approved commercial equivalent and meet ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code Section VIII standards, including full traceability of materials, hydrostatic and non-destructive examination test reports, and an ASME code stamp. Surface preparation must comply with RPTSD-8070-0001 Level 400A, and a corrosion-resistant coating suitable for the Gulf Coast marine environment is required. Respondents must submit a company profile including their UEI and socioeconomic status, technical documentation proving capability to meet the pressure and material specifications, past performance references for at least three similar high-pressure gas storage projects delivered within the last five years—including government contracts with contract numbers—estimated delivery timelines to NASA’s Stennis Space Center in Mississippi, and feedback on the draft Statement of Work to identify any unclear, overly restrictive, or non-commercial requirements. Offerors are encouraged to highlight missing industry-standard safety practices such as helium leak testing and fatigue analysis and to define their commercial warranty terms, including any extended warranty for coatings. This is a sources sought notice with no solicitation or contract awarded as a result; responses are due by May 20, 2026, at 2:00 PM CDT and must be submitted electronically to Caitlin Angstadt at [email hidden]. No pricing, line items, contract value, payment terms, or formal evaluation criteria are included, as this is purely a market research effort to assess industry capability and inform potential future procurement actions.
