Satellite Sensor Design and Integration (Engineering Support)

The contract seeks engineering support for the design, integration, and testing of non-heritage satellite sensors including multispectral, microwave, and neutral density instruments intended for environmental monitoring missions. The work will focus on developing advanced sensor technologies not based on previously flown systems, requiring innovation in hardware design, system integration, and rigorous testing protocols to meet mission objectives for Earth observation. This subcontract is targeted toward technical organizations capable of delivering high-precision sensor systems that enhance the capabilities of environmental data collection from space. The opportunity was posted on April 28, 2026, with a submission deadline of May 22, 2026 at 2:00 PM, and falls under NAICS code 541330 for engineering services. The primary place of performance is in Silver Spring, though the full address is not specified. The contract is awarded by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration under the Department of Commerce, and while no set-aside type is designated, interested parties must respond through the SAM.gov portal before the deadline. The work will contribute to critical environmental monitoring programs, emphasizing the development of next-generation sensors for improved data accuracy and mission flexibility.
