Post-Plating Heat Treatment and Process Monitoring

The contract involves the controlled low-temperature heat treatment of plated components in accordance with ASTM B733 Class 4 specifications, ensuring material integrity and performance after plating. Detailed time and temperature data logging is required throughout the process, with comprehensive reporting provided to verify compliance with the standard. The treatment must be performed with precision to meet the technical requirements for aerospace-grade components, where consistent thermal parameters are critical to preventing hydrogen embrittlement and maintaining mechanical properties. This subcontract is issued by the NASA Shared Services Center on behalf of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, with a response deadline of July 7, 2026. The NAICS code 332813 identifies the work as electroplating, coating, and related activities. The place of performance and point of contact are not specified, and no set-aside designation is indicated. The solicitation is open for responses through the SAM.gov portal, and contractors are expected to demonstrate capability in precision thermal processing and data documentation to fulfill NASA’s quality and traceability standards for mission-critical hardware.
