Rocket Systems Launch Program (RSLP) Innovative Delivery of Effects (RIDE) Supplemental Request for Information (RFI) – Industry Statements of Capability (SOCs)
Solicitation # RIDE2026
The Space Systems Command's Rocket Systems Launch Program is implementing the Innovative Delivery of Effects acquisition strategy to provide responsive space, experimental, and research, development, test and evaluation launch services for the Department of War and other government agencies. This strategy succeeds the OSP-4, SRP-O, and SRP-4 programs and aims to support a wide range of missions, from low Earth orbit payloads to suborbital vehicle development. The government is contemplating the use of two multiple-award indefinite-delivery indefinite-quantity contract vehicles. One IDIQ will focus on commercial Space Transportation Services using fixed-price structures, while the second will address non-commercial Space-Related Activity launch services, which may involve complex research and development and utilize hybrid cost-reimbursement and fixed-price task orders. The current supplemental request for information seeks statements of capability from industry to refine acquisition requirements and determine commerciality. Interested companies must provide details on their flight heritage, launch vehicle production processes, and their ability to meet mission assurance requirements. The government is specifically looking for feedback on streamlining mission assurance practices and identifying high-value deliverables for minimum award guarantees to avoid duplicating previous acquisitions. Potential contractors for the non-commercial IDIQ must demonstrate the ability to perform cost-reimbursement contracts, including maintaining approved accounting systems. An industry day is scheduled for September 22 through 23, 2026, at Kirtland Air Force Base, with statements of capability due by October 2, 2026.

Astromaterials Glovebox Systems - Design & Fabrication (A-BOX)
Solicitation # 80JSC026A-BOX
This notice, issued by NASA’s Johnson Space Center under solicitation number 80JSC026A-BOX, is a Request for Information (RFI) for the design, fabrication, testing, delivery, and installation of controlled-atmosphere glovebox systems to support the Astromaterials Research and Exploration Science Curation Facility. The systems are intended for handling lunar and planetary samples, including those from Artemis missions, and must operate in ambient, cold (−85 to −20 °C), and ultra-cold/cryogenic (< −85 °C) environments while maintaining inert atmosphere conditions. Technical requirements are aligned with the American Glovebox Society Guidelines AGS-G001-2007 (3rd Edition), and compliance with quality standards such as ISO9001, AS9100, and NQA-1 is mandatory. The RFI seeks industry input on feasibility, capabilities, and cost estimates, with no formal proposals required. Access to the technical library containing detailed requirements is granted through SAM.gov after completing a two-step verification process and submitting a formal request form to NASA, with all requestors responsible for U.S. export control compliance. The response deadline has been extended to August 5, 2026, at 4:00 PM Central Time. The RFI emphasizes small business participation and solicit feedback on realistic subcontracting goals, barriers to entry for small businesses, and strategies to enhance involvement such as modularizing scope or encouraging teaming arrangements. NASA is considering potential set-asides for Small Business, Small Disadvantaged Business, HUBZone, Veteran-Owned, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned, and Women-Owned Small Businesses. Organizational conflicts of interest (OCI) are a significant concern due to the nature of prior involvement in astromaterials handling and related design work; respondents must disclose any potential OCI and propose mitigation strategies, though NASA’s review at this stage does not constitute formal approval or assurance. Responses must be submitted electronically via email to the designated contracting officer and contract specialist, formatted according to Attachment II—Capabilities Questions and Responses—which addresses small business utilization, OCI, technical capability, and business considerations. The place of performance is the ARES Curation Facility in Houston, Texas, and final delivery and installation will occur there. No contract value, pricing, or award criteria are provided, as this is purely an information-gathering phase to inform future procurement strategy. Any information submitted is treated as voluntarily provided under FOIA and will not be publicly
