Enabling Technology for Future Missions
Solicitation # 9F063-20260085
The Canadian Space Agency is soliciting fixed-price proposals under the Space Technology Development Program to develop and advance one to three priority enabling technologies for future space missions. The primary goal is to increase Technology Readiness Levels (TRL) to reduce technical uncertainties and support the implementation of strategic Canadian space activities. The three priority technologies include a lightweight athermal reflecting telescope for CubeSats, readout electronics for large mosaic focal plane arrays of astronomical low light imagers, and technologies for a terrestrial snow mass mission. Maximum funding is capped at 1,000,000 CAD for the telescope and readout electronics, and 2,000,000 CAD for the snow mass mission technology. The project has a planned duration of 16 months and follows a milestone-based payment schedule including a kick-off meeting, preliminary and detailed design reviews, a test readiness review, and a final review. Key deliverables include hardware such as a reflecting telescope brassboard at TRL 5, CAD and performance analysis models, and a technology roadmap to reach TRL 6 to 8. Award selection is based on a combined rating of 60 percent technical merit and 40 percent price, with a minimum technical score of 70 points required for consideration. This solicitation is restricted to Canadian suppliers and requires strict adherence to security screening, intellectual property disclosures, and the use of the ISEP portal for sensitive data transfers.

NASA Space Technology Graduate Research Opportunities -- Fall 2027 (NSTGRO27)
Solicitation # NNH26ZTR001N-26NSTGRO_B4
The NASA Space Technology Graduate Research Opportunities Fall 2027 (NSTGRO27) program, managed by the Space Technology Mission Directorate, seeks proposals for innovative low Technology Readiness Level (TRL) civil space technology research and development. The program aims to build a pipeline of scientists and engineers to support NASA and the civil space ecosystem. Eligible applicants include individuals pursuing master's or doctoral degrees at U.S. institutions of higher education. Awards are issued to organizations rather than individuals, with an anticipated total of 35 awards. Each award provides a maximum annual funding of $84,000, covering student stipends, support allowances, health insurance, tuition, and a visiting technologist experience allowance. While initial funding is for one year, the total award duration can extend up to four years based on performance and fund availability. Proposals must be submitted via NSPIRES or Grants.gov by December 9, 2026, and require registration in SAM.gov and NSPIRES for all involved entities. The application process involves a preliminary proposal and a full proposal, both of which are weighted 50% on the student's academic excellence, potential, and commitment to space technology. Technical evaluation focuses on the merit of the research plan, its relevance to space technology applications, and alignment with specific Need Statements and Civil Space Shortfalls. Required submission documents include a personal statement, project narrative, and references, alongside a PI biographical sketch and budget justification. All submissions must be searchable, unlocked PDF files and adhere to strict page and formatting limits.

In-Orbit Manufacturing (IOM) Maturation Research & Development Projects
Solicitation # UKSAC26_0057
The UK Space Agency, under the Department for Science, Innovation and Technology, is seeking proposals for approximately two In-Orbit Manufacturing (IOM) Maturation Research and Development Projects. With an estimated total value of 1.4 million GBP excluding VAT, this initiative aims to advance IOM processes and associated payloads to Technology Readiness Level 4/5 by the Final Review milestone. Selected projects will conduct design, prototyping, analysis, and testing to establish a credible roadmap for microgravity demonstrations by 2030, while strengthening the commercial case and providing evidence to inform the ISAM IOD Programme Business Case and future procurement decisions. The procurement is specifically designated as a Contracts for Innovation competition for research and development services, with a particular suitability for small and medium-sized enterprises. Proposals must be submitted in English via the Jaggaer eSourcing Portal by 13:00 UK time on 27 November 2026. Awards will be based on a 100 percent quality evaluation, weighted across proposed technology (20 percent), technical feasibility (20 percent), commercial and strategic potential (20 percent), project management (15 percent), benefit to the UK (15 percent), and value for money (10 percent). The estimated period of performance runs from 4 January 2027 to 15 June 2027 within the United Kingdom.

Mission Feasibility Studies – Spacecraft Life Extension Service Demonstration
Solicitation # UKSAC26_0058
The Department for Science, Innovation & Technology, through the UK Space Agency, is conducting a Contracts for Innovation competition under solicitation UKSAC26_0058 to fund approximately three Phase 0/A mission feasibility studies. The objective is to explore credible options for a future in-orbit demonstration of a Rendezvous, Proximity Operations and Docking (RPOD)-enabled spacecraft Life Extension service. These studies will focus on developing mission concepts for safe and repeatable RPOD with cooperative client spacecraft to de-risk future services such as refuelling, AOCS takeover, relocation, repair, upgrade, or refurbishment. Key deliverables include the analysis of client and servicer options, operational assessments, and the identification of costs, risks, and dependencies to inform a future Business Case. This procurement is designated for Research and Development services and is categorized as an exempted contract under the Procurement Act 2023, with particular suitability for small and medium-sized enterprises. The total estimated value is 2,100,000 GBP excluding VAT, with an estimated performance period from January 4, 2027, to June 15, 2027. Awards will be based on an open procedure with a 100% quality weighting, evaluated across technical ideas, feasibility, project management, value for money, strategic potential, and benefit to the UK. Submissions must be made via the Jaggaer eSourcing Portal by November 27, 2026, with an estimated award decision date of December 22, 2026.

Systèmes De Microréacteur Lunaire Canadien
Solicitation # 9F055- 20260146
The Canadian Space Agency (CSA) has issued a Request for Information (RFI) under solicitation number 9F055-20260146 to identify Canadian technologies and capabilities relevant to lunar microreactors and enabling technologies. This initiative seeks to gather evidence-based data on Canada's existing strengths, technology maturity, supply chains, and development pathways to inform future space exploration programs and procurement strategies. The CSA is interested in a wide range of contributions, from complete systems and subsystems to specialized research and consortium roles, and is not requiring a single entity to deliver an end-to-end system. Notional performance parameters of interest include a net continuous electric power of approximately 20-80 kWe and an operational life of 10 years or more. This RFI is not a bid solicitation and will not result in the award of a contract, grant, or funding agreement. Responses are not scored for supplier selection but are used to map the domestic landscape. Interested parties from industry, academia, and research institutions must submit their responses by November 23, 2026. Submissions should follow the recommended format in Annex A and utilize the Capability Matrix and Technology Readiness Level references provided in the attachments. All responses must be unclassified, and any proprietary information must be clearly marked. The CSA emphasizes that future activities must prioritize safety, security, environmental protection, and non-proliferation in accordance with the Nuclear Safety and Control Act and other applicable laws.
