What this opportunity is
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration is procuring a modular, skid-mounted cryogenic air separation unit (ASU), specifically the Nikkiso Cosmodyne PINE 8 system, to produce high-purity liquid nitrogen at the John C. Stennis Space Center in California. This contract was awarded on a sole-source basis, meaning there is no set-aside for small businesses, and it is a firm-fixed-price contract. As this is an award notice, interested parties should track the contract's performance rather than pursue bidding opportunities.
