Closed Cycle Cryostat System Supply

NASA is seeking a subcontractor to supply a fully integrated closed cycle cryostat system designed to meet strict technical performance standards for low-temperature operation in research or space testing environments. The system must be capable of reliable, maintenance-free cooling under demanding conditions typical of space-based experiments or ground-based simulations, ensuring thermal stability and precision without reliance on consumable cryogens. The contract is classified under NAICS code 333415, indicating it pertains to other industrial machinery manufacturing, and is structured as a subcontract with no set-aside provisions. Responses to this solicitation are due by August 6, 2026, with the opportunity posted on July 30, 2026. The contracting activity is managed by the NASA Shared Services Center on behalf of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, and while specific performance locations are not defined, the system will ultimately support NASA’s mission-critical testing and research applications. The procurement is open to qualified vendors with demonstrated expertise in advanced cryogenic engineering and systems integration, and all proposals must fully align with NASA’s operational and technical expectations for performance, durability, and environmental compatibility.
