COBRA2-100 PCB

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration, through the NASA Shared Services Center, is soliciting quotes for the fabrication and assembly of COBRA2-100 printed circuit boards (PCBs) to support hardware upgrades for next-generation simulation computers within the Simulation Engineering Branch. This is a total small business set-aside procurement awarded based on the lowest price technically acceptable (LPTA) criteria. The contractor must be a domestic manufacturer capable of producing boards that meet IPC-6012 Class 3 fabrication standards and IPC-A-610 Class 3 assembly standards. Technical specifications require boards measuring 10.1 by 5.5 inches with a thickness of 0.062 inches or less, one-ounce finished copper weight, and flame-resistant materials with a Tg of 140 degrees Celsius or greater. Key deliverables include an initial batch of five prototype PCBs due three weeks from award, with provisions for subsequent revised prototypes and final production units delivered five weeks after design confirmation. Quality assurance requirements include 250VDC HIPOT and flying probe testing prior to assembly, the maintenance of quality conformal test coupons per IPC-2221, and the submission of certificates of compliance with each lot. Due to the sensitive nature of the fabrication and assembly files, requestors must be capable of handling encrypted emails and viewing Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI). Quotes must be submitted to Tracy Bremer by September 7, 2026, and must include the offeror's Cage Code, Unique Entity ID, and a confirmation of FOB Destination delivery.
