NASA Awards Multiple Construction Contracts for Facility Rehabilitation

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration announced Friday that 12 construction contracts have been awarded for work to be performed predominantly at the agency’s Wallops Flight Facility and Langley Research Center. Each contractor has been awarded an 8(a) small business set-aside, indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contract, NASA said Friday.

In a statement, the space agency said that every contract has a total maximum ordering value of $39.4 million and the period of performance for each is for five years, beginning immediately. The contracts are mainly for construction services needed for the rehabilitation of the space agency’s two facilities.

NASA said that the job calls for site improvements on facilities like office buildings, laboratories, research facilities, clean rooms, test facilities,  and integration and launch areas.

Each contractor will furnish all materials, labor, equipment, management, coordination and quality controls necessary for the performance of construction, modification, repair, and rehabilitation of facilities, NASA said.

On Wednesday, NASA also announced the selection of 12 companies to provide launch services for the agency’s Venture-Class Acquisition of Dedicated and Rideshare missions, providing new opportunities for science and technology payloads and fostering a growing U.S. commercial launch market. The space agency has also released a forecast of other planned procurements for 2022 and beyond.
