Operator Training and Knowledge Transfer

The contract seeks a small business to conduct on-site training sessions for NASA personnel focused on the operation, maintenance, and interpretation of results from the Eddyfi Tester, a non-destructive evaluation device used for inspecting materials and components. The training must ensure NASA staff gain full proficiency in using the equipment, understanding its outputs, and performing routine upkeep to sustain operational readiness without external support. All sessions are required to occur at NASA facilities, with the contractor responsible for delivering customized, hands-on instruction tailored to the agency’s specific inspection protocols and mission-critical applications. This is a subcontract under a Small Business Set Aside, classified under NAICS code 611430 for professional and management development training, and is open for bids until August 10, 2026. The contracting entity is the NASA Shared Services Center, acting on behalf of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, with performance expected to take place at designated NASA locations, though exact sites are unspecified. The initiative emphasizes knowledge transfer to build internal NASA capability, reduce dependency on external specialists, and ensure long-term sustainability of inspection operations. Contractors must demonstrate expertise in technical training, experience with Eddyfi systems or similar NDT platforms, and the ability to coordinate effectively with federal personnel in secure, mission-sensitive environments.
