NASA Glenn Research Center requires natural gas transportation services for its Armstrong Test Facility in Sandusky, Ohio. Columbia Gas of Ohio, Inc. is the current incumbent on contract 80GRC022CA010, valued at $375,000, with the potential contract end date in May 2027. The government will pay Columbia Gas for transporting natural gas from the city gate to the test facility under a firm fixed-price arrangement. The service is not open for competition at this time, with the contract expected to be issued as a sole source under FAR 6.302-1, citing only one responsible source capable of fulfilling the agency's needs. NASA is allowing interested parties to submit their qualifications by March 22, 2022, but any decision to compete the contract rests with the government’s discretion. The procurement is classified as a likely recompete opportunity with medium confidence (50%). The acquisition does not involve the procurement of a commercial item, and NASA has designated an ombudsman to oversee the process. Contact points for inquiries are Jeremiah O’Callahan and Jamahel Fayall at NASA Glenn Research Center. The contract supports the agency’s continued operations and testing capabilities at the Armstrong Test Facility through guaranteed access to reliable natural gas transport services.

Predicted recompete opportunity based on federal award data.
Current Contract: 80GRC022CA010 Incumbent: COLUMBIA GAS OF OHIO INC Contract Value: $375,000 Potential End Date: 2027-05-15T00:00:00.000Z Competition: NOT AVAILABLE FOR COMPETITION Pricing: FIRM FIXED PRICE Classification: recompete-likely (Confidence: medium - 50/100)
NASA Glenn Research Center (GRC) has a requirement for natural gas transport services by Columbia Gas as required by NASA to its Glenn Research Center Armstrong Test Facility, located in Sandusky, Ohio. The Government will make arrangements for and pay Columbia Gas for further transportation of such gas from the city gate to the Glenn Research Center Armstrong Test Facility. NASA Glenn Research Center (GRC) intends to issue a sole source contract to acquire the services from Columbia Gas Of Ohio, Inc. The authority permitting sole source is FAR 6.302-1 Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. The Government does not intend to acquire a commercial item using FAR Part 12. Interested organizations may submit their capabilities and qualifications to perform the effort electronically via email to Jeremiah O�Callahan at jeremiah.f.ocallahan@nasa.gov not later than 4:00 p.m. EDT on March 22, 2022.

Fission Surface Power System - Technical Library
Solicitation # 80GRC025FSPS_Tech_Library
NASA Glenn Research Center has established a Technical Library to support potential offerors interested in the Fission Surface Power (FSP) System under the Announcement for Partnership Proposals (AFPP). The FSP system is a critical element in NASA's lunar and Mars exploration architecture, designed to provide sustainable power to support future human and robotic activities on the lunar surface and eventually Mars. It aims to energize the space industrial base through deployment of advanced fission power technologies near crewed and uncrewed assets such as landers, rovers, and habitats. The Technical Library contains a collection of standards, specifications, requirements, and guidelines relevant to the FSP development, including software interoperability, environmental design parameters, materials and processes standards, contamination control, communications systems, and lunar environmental data. These documents, many controlled as unclassified technical information (CUI) or subject to export control, are periodically updated, and potential offerors are responsible for monitoring SAM.gov for the latest information. Access to export-controlled content within the Technical Library requires a formal request process involving submission of a specialized Export Control Request Form and compliance with individual technology transfer plans and non-disclosure agreements, particularly for foreign nationals. Notably, this posting is not a solicitation or request for proposals, and no proposals are to be submitted in response. The Technical Library serves as a reference repository, encompassing detailed NASA technical documents such as lunar surface integration software interoperability standards, natural environment design criteria for launch systems, contamination control manuals, lunar communications and navigation specifications, and design and interface requirements for human-class lander systems. These materials provide essential technical baselines, standardization protocols, and interface requirements intended to facilitate compatibility, safety, and interoperability for developing the Fission Surface Power system as part of NASA’s broader Moon-to-Mars exploration strategy.
