Cryogenic Functional Testing and Certification

The contract requires comprehensive performance testing of assembled valves under simulated cryogenic conditions to validate their operational integrity at a pressure of 8,500 psig and compatibility with liquid oxygen. All testing must replicate the extreme environmental conditions expected in spaceflight systems to ensure reliability and safety during actual use. The work involves rigorous functional evaluations to confirm valve performance under thermal stress, high-pressure flow, and oxidizer exposure, with strict documentation of results to meet certification standards. The contract is classified as a subcontract under NAICS code 541380 and is managed by NASA Stennis Space Center on behalf of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. Performance of the work is designated to occur in Oakville, and the solicitation was posted on July 6, 2026. The testing outcomes will serve as critical certification evidence for use in propulsion or life support systems where failure is not an option, and all materials, procedures, and testing protocols must align with NASA’s stringent requirements for cryogenic fluid handling and mission-critical hardware.
