The cleaning process must utilize isopropyl alcohol or an alternative solvent approved by the Marshall Space Flight Center to ensure compatibility with the material and avoid contamination or damage to sensitive features. This work is critical to the functional integrity of the components, as residual powder can compromise performance, thermal behavior, or structural reliability in high-stress aerospace applications. The opportunity is open for submissions until August 4, 2026, with a NAICS code of 339999 indicating it falls under other miscellaneous manufacturing. The place of performance and point of contact details are not specified, and the contract is not subject to any specific set-aside categories, making it broadly available to qualified vendors.
