Silver Reutilization and Account Maintenance Service
Solicitation # N0025327Q0001
The Naval Undersea Warfare Center Division, Keyport, intends to award a single Indefinite-Delivery Indefinite-Quantity (IDIQ) contract for silver reutilization and account maintenance services. The contractor will be responsible for refining silver-bearing materials recovered from Silver/Zinc and Silver/Chloride batteries to a purity of 99.9% for use in manufacturing new batteries. Annual requirements include the reutilization of 328,060 troy ounces of high silver content material and 582,421 troy ounces of low silver content material, along with the maintenance of 439,108 troy ounces in silver accounts. The contract features a five-year ordering period and will be awarded based on Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) procedures. The contract is a fixed-price agreement with an Economic Price Adjustment based on the London Bullion Market Association Silver Price, with a service price ceiling set at 150% of the proposed base price. Performance requirements include completing the refining process within 60 days of shipment receipt and achieving a silver return rate between 75% and 90% of the received net weight. Strict quality and security controls are mandated, including the use of a neutral third-party observer for weighing and the adherence to DOD 5220.22M industrial security standards. The contractor must also ensure all hazardous waste disposal complies with local, state, and federal environmental laws. This is a full and open competition under NAICS code 331492, with the Request for Quote expected around October 1, 2026.

The contract calls for the supply of high-purity metals, vacuum-rated seals, valves, liquid nitrogen piping, and high-emissivity coatings specifically engineered for use in vacuum and cryogenic environments within NASA systems. All materials must comply with stringent NASA outgassing standards to ensure minimal contamination in sensitive operational settings and must be fully traceable to verified material origins and processing histories to meet rigorous quality and reliability requirements. The components are intended for integration into critical hardware at NASA Glenn Research Center’s facility in Cleveland, Ohio, where precision and material integrity are paramount for mission success. The opportunity is structured as a subcontract with a tight response window, closing on May 6, 2026, at 9:00 PM Eastern Time. It falls under NAICS code 331492, indicating specialty metal manufacturing, and is solicited by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration through its Glenn Research Center. While no set-aside status or point of contact details are provided, the urgency and technical specificity of the requirement underscore the need for qualified suppliers with demonstrated experience in aerospace-grade material production and certification processes aligned with NASA’s stringent performance benchmarks.

Lunar Enabling Infrastructure Accelerator (LEIA) -Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) NextSTEP-3 Appendix A - Final Solicitation
Solicitation # 80GRC026R0008
The Lunar Enabling Infrastructure Accelerator (LEIA), under solicitation 80GRC026R0008, is a NASA Glenn Research Center initiative aimed at maturing critical lunar and cislunar infrastructure technologies. This effort, part of the NextSTEP-3 Broad Agency Announcement, focuses on five key technical areas: Vertical Solar Array Technology (VSAT) subsystems, In-Situ Resource Utilization (ISRU) for oxygen production from regolith, Stirling Radioisotope Generator systems, advanced in-space manufacturing, and innovative nanomaterials production. The primary goal is to advance these technologies from lower Technology Readiness Levels (TRL 3-4) to TRL 5-6 through integrated ground demonstrations and system validation to support the Moon-to-Mars exploration architecture. The solicitation is open for full and open competition with a proposal deadline of October 8, 2026. Awards will be firm-fixed-price contracts with a total period of performance not exceeding three years. Selection is based on best value, with technical merit weighted significantly higher than price. Offerors must provide a comprehensive proposal including a technical approach, a detailed statement of work, and a pricing volume. Key administrative requirements include the submission of an Organizational Conflicts of Interest (OCI) plan, eligibility certifications for U.S. and international team members, and adherence to strict NASA security and export control regulations. Proposals must be submitted electronically via NASA's Enterprise File Sharing and Sync Box (EFSS Box).
