Automated Universal Test System

Solicitation # 80MSFC26Q0008

NASA Marshall Space Flight Center requires an Automated Universal Test System designed for the mechanical testing of rigid plastic specimens within a shielded research facility. The system must support tensile, flexural, and compression testing with a minimum capacity of 100 kN while operating with minimal human interaction. Key functional requirements include automated specimen handling, dimensional and strain measurement, data acquisition, and specimen traceability, all within a compact footprint suitable for constrained laboratory space. Because the testing involves radioactive materials, the equipment will be installed in a hot cell environment to ensure safety and compatibility with remote-handling needs. NASA intends to issue a sole source contract to Instron, doing business as Illinois Tool Works, Inc., under the authority of FAR 6.103-1. This selection is based on the Instron AT3 Floor Model's unique ability to meet the specific combination of force requirements, automated test modes, and small physical footprint, as well as its compatibility with existing government equipment, software, and workflows. This acquisition is being conducted under FAR Part 12. Interested organizations may submit capabilities and qualifications to the designated points of contact by September 4, 2026, to assist the government in determining whether to proceed with a competitive acquisition.

TECHNOLOGY TRANSFER OPPORTUNITY: Gateway Integrates Wireless Sensors with Existing Aircraft Systems at "the Speed of Software" (DRC-TOPS-42)

Solicitation # TP2-AFRC-00025

NASA is seeking companies interested in licensing a proprietary wireless sensor gateway technology developed at its Armstrong Flight Research Center, designed to integrate wireless devices with existing aircraft systems without requiring physical modifications to avionics. The technology enables seamless communication between onboard systems and any compliant wireless sensor through a single, reprogrammable gateway that operates at the speed of software, allowing rapid deployment of new sensing capabilities across multiple platforms. This approach eliminates the need to retrofit each vehicle individually, significantly reducing cost, weight, and development time while enhancing scalability for both aerospace and non-aerospace applications such as predictive maintenance, asset tracking, and connected logistics. The gateway is platform- and implementation-agnostic, making it adaptable to industrial Internet-of-Things environments beyond aviation, allowing manufacturers to add wireless functionality to legacy systems without overhauling existing networks. NASA offers exclusive or nonexclusive licensing rights with possible field-of-use restrictions but provides no funding with the license. Interested parties must submit applications through NASA’s ATLAS system by August 10, 2027, and all responses are for market research and licensing interest only—with no expectation of follow-on procurement. Questions should be directed to NASA’s Technology Transfer Program, and additional information on other available technologies is accessible via the NASA Technology Transfer Portal.
