Description

NASA’s Glenn Research Center is seeking a sole‑source contractor to procure and assemble thruster materials for six assembled thrusters that will use NASA‑provided thrust chambers. The effort is limited to material procurement and hardware assembly; no non‑recurring engineering (NRE) is required. The contractor will perform all assembly at its own facilities and must deliver the completed thrusters within a 16‑week period after order acceptance. • Provide all materials and labor required to build six Ocelot‑type thrusters using government‑furnished thrust chambers. • Perform assembly off‑site (contractor’s facilities); NASA supplies the thrust chambers (GFE). • Deliver completed thrusters within 16 weeks of order receipt; no NRE work is expected.

No contract value is disclosed. Based on typical costs for aerospace‑grade thruster hardware (materials, machining, integration, testing) and the limited quantity (six units), a rough estimate would be between $150 000 and $350 000 total. Factors influencing the range include material specifications, labor rates, and any required quality‑assurance certifications.
