- Description
NASA Marshall Space Flight Center (MSFC) has a requirement to authorize an increase in the contract value for contract 80MSFC24CA009, a follow-on contract to the Moon-to-Mars Planetary Autonomous Construction Technology (MMPACT) contract, awarded to Dr. Holly Shulman, a small business. This contract is in support of the Microwave Multimode (MWM) project for the development of microwaves as a means to prepare and consolidate the lunar regolith into a solid glass/ceramic structure, characterize the material, and verify that the product meets design requirements through Technology Maturation, including processing performance and both horizontal and vertical joining technology development.
NASA/MSFC intends to issue a sole source work within scope modification to contract 80MSFC24CA009 to acquire the services from Dr. Shulman under the statutory authority of FAR 6.302. The original contract was issued using the statutory authority permitting other than full and open competition 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1), as implemented by FAR 6.302-1 for acquisition of supplies or services available from only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. Dr. Shulman has experience using microwaves to uniformly heat and sinter large sample sizes of lunar and Martian regolith simulants, particularly with high fidelity lunar highlands simulant. Dr. Shulman owns a proprietary formula for microwave susceptors, used to improve uniformity in hybrid microwave heating. These susceptors were used in a microwave system to produce the largest size dense blocks of lunar and Martian regolith simulant to date. She has the largest U.S. database of dielectric measurements for ceramics, including lunar regolith simulant microwave frequencies as a function of temperature. This is critical data and experience for developing microwave heating protocols. The continued provision of these services from any other source would result in both substantial... - Documents:
