NASA AWARDS LAUNCH SERVICES PROGRAM SUPPORT CONTRACT

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. -- NASA has selected a.i. solutions Inc. of
Lanham, Md., to receive a contract award that will enable the
agency's Launch Services Program (LSP) to provide integrated services
for the preparation and launch of NASA's next generation of
scientific and exploration spacecraft.

The Expendable Launch Vehicle Integrated Support 2 (ELVIS 2) contract
has a potential maximum value of $138.1 million. This new contract
resulted from a competitive, small business set-aside.

The contract has a two-month phase-in period that begins February
2012, followed by a one-and-a-half-year base period extending from
April 1, 2012, through Sept. 30, 2013. Two option periods are
available that would bring the total period of performance to five
years.

The ELVIS 2 contract supports LSP and LSP-sponsored missions,
activities and strategic initiatives for multiple NASA programs, the
Defense Department and other government agencies and commercial
launch activities. The contract will provide LSP with program
management support; vehicle engineering and analysis; launch site
support engineering; communications and telemetry; technical
integration services; LSP programmatic safety, reliability and
quality support; support at Vandenberg Air Force Base in California;
information technology support; and special studies.
