NASA AWARDS CREW ROBOTICS AND VEHICLE EQUIPMENT CONTRACTS
WASHINGTON -- NASA has awarded contracts to three companies and one
university for crew robotics and vehicle equipment work. The combined
total value of the four contracts is not to exceed $70 million.
The companies selected are ATK Space Systems of Brigham City, Utah;
Oceaneering International and Wyle Integrated Science and
Engineering, both of Houston; and the University of Alabama at
Birmingham. The cost-plus-fixed-fee, performance-based contracts run
through June 2015.
The contracts involve spacewalk activity equipment, spacecraft flight
crew equipment, crew health and conditioning systems, spacewalk
robotics equipment, environmental control and life support equipment,
active thermal control systems, avionics equipment and ground support
systems. The equipment is for use in the space shuttle, International
Space Station and other advanced development programs.
The contracts with ATK, Oceaneering and Wyle were awarded as a result
of a full and open competition. The University of Alabama contract
was awarded based on a competition open to educational and nonprofit
institutions. The work will be conducted at contractor and
subcontractor facilities.
