Strategic Professional Engineering Assessment Contract (SPEAC) IIIThe Strategic Professional Engineering Assessment Contract III is a forthcoming procurement initiative by NASA’s Johnson Space Center under the Exploration Architecture, Integration, and Science Directorate to secure ongoing support for independent programmatic and institutional reviews across critical domains including cost, schedule, technical risk, and safety and mission assurance. The contract will provide expert assessments to define and interpret high-level organizational engineering performance requirements, ensuring rigorous oversight and alignment with mission objectives for NASA and other customer agencies. This effort represents a re-compete of the previous SPEAC II Blanket Purchase Agreement, aiming to maintain continuity in specialized engineering evaluation services. The solicitation is forecasted with a posted date of July 1, 2027, and is classified under NAICS code 927110, reflecting its alignment with federal administrative and support activities. The primary point of contact for inquiries is Cara L. Miller, with additional support available through Small Business Specialist Tumarrow Romain. The place of performance remains to be determined, and no set-aside designation has been specified at this stage. Prospective offerors should prepare to respond to a competitive procurement process designed to ensure access to top-tier independent engineering expertise essential for NASA’s mission-critical programs.

Commercial Low Earth Orbit (LEO) Destination Contract (CLDC) Technical LibraryThe Commercial Low-Earth Orbit (LEO) Destination Contract (CLDC) Technical Library is a non-solicitation informational resource established by NASA Johnson Space Center to provide industry with access to evolving technical standards, requirements, and capabilities relevant to future commercial LEO destination development. The library is maintained through periodic Data Drops that release uncontrolled and controlled technical documents, including revisions to standards such as CLDP-REQ-1130 and CLDP-STD-1106, along with facility capability profiles from Johnson Space Center and White Sands Test Facility. An Excel index file, continuously updated with each Data Drop, serves as the primary catalog for tracking document versions and classifications. Access to export-controlled materials requires formal submission of the CLDP Export Control Request Form and compliance with U.S. export regulations, including the requirement for foreign nationals to have an Individual Technology Transfer Control Plan and Non-Disclosure Agreement. The library remains accessible to industry for reference, but it does not constitute a solicitation, request for proposal, or binding commitment by the government. The CLDC acquisition itself is currently on hold, with NASA shifting focus to supporting industry development through funded Space Act Agreements while continuing to refine technical standards for a future FAR-based acquisition. All updates and future solicitations will be posted exclusively on www.sam.gov.

DRAFT Solar System Exploration Research Virtual Institute Cooperative Agreement Notice-5 (SSERVI CAN-5)This solicitation, designated as DRAFT SSERVI CAN-5 with solicitation number NNH26ZDA013J, is a Cooperative Agreement Notice issued by NASA’s Science Mission Directorate to support multidisciplinary research aligned with solar system exploration and human spaceflight objectives. Proposals must follow a two-step submission process: a Step-1 proposal, which is anonymous and non-binding, is required before submitting a full Step-2 proposal. The Step-1 must include the principal investigator’s and team members’ information, a descriptive title, and a brief overview of the intended investigation, and must be submitted electronically via NSPIRES. All proposing organizations and personnel must be preregistered in both the System for Award Management (SAM.gov) and NSPIRES, with SAM registration taking up to 30 days. Step-2 proposals must be structured into two volumes: Volume A, containing anonymized technical content including the research plan, Open Science and Data Management Plan, workforce development plan, fieldwork plan, and citizen science or space apps plan, within strict page limits and formatting guidelines; and Volume B, containing non-anonymized materials such as biographical sketches and letters of commitment. A separate total budget PDF and, if applicable, an Optional HEC Appendix must also be submitted. Evaluation is based on scientific and technical merit (70%), workforce development (15%), and citizen science or science activation (15%), with additional consideration given to team collaboration and alignment with NASA’s mission. Proposals are assessed through a trade-off process where programmatic balance may influence final selection, and cost is reviewed for reasonableness but not weighted in the merit evaluation. No cost sharing is required, and LPTA is not used. The anticipated award value is $9 million over five years per award, with funding subject to annual congressional appropriation. Proposals involving foreign collaborators require letters of endorsement, and any in-kind contributions over $5,000, participation in foreign talent programs, or engagement with Indigenous communities must be disclosed. All senior personnel must complete research security training, and proposals must comply with NASA’s data management, environmental, and cultural heritage requirements. Performance will occur primarily at the proposer’s institution or designated field sites, with potential access to NASA facilities, and pre-award costs are allowable up to 90 days before the official start date. Submission must occur via NSPIRES by the announced deadline, with all documents in PDF format and properly labeled.
