CONTRACT RELEASE: 11-056

NASA EXTENDS ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS ENGINEERING SERVICES CONTRACT

GREENBELT, Md. -- NASA has extended the ordering period and increased
the maximum ordering value of the Electrical Systems Engineering
Services (ESES) interim contract with MEI Technologies, Inc. of
Houston.

This contract action has been implemented to sustain performance until
the ESES II follow-on contract is awarded. It is anticipated ESES II
will be awarded by September 2012.

The ordering period has been extended for six months from February 9,
2012, through August 8, 2012, with an option to extend for an
additional three months through November 8, 2012. The maximum
ordering value of this indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity
contract has been increased by $64.5 million to a total of $163.5
million, with an additional ordering value of $25.2 million to be
added if the three-month option is exercised.

Under this contract, MEI, Inc. performs tasks necessary and incidental
for the study, design, development, fabrication, integration,
testing, verification, and operations of space flight, airborne, and
ground system hardware and software. This includes development and
validation of new technologies to enable future space and science
missions in support of the Applied Engineering and Technology
Directorate at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Md.

Task orders issued under the ESES interim contract provide critical
support to a wide range of NASA's GSFC missions and projects
including: Global Precipitation Measurement, Magnetospheric
MultiScale, Landsat Data Continuity, James Webb Space Telescope, Soil
Moisture Active-Passive, Soft X-Ray Spectrometer for ASTRO-H, the
Advanced Topographic Laser Altimeter System, and others.
