NASA AWARDS JOHNSON SAFETY AND MISSION ASSURANCE CONTRACT

WASHINGTON -- NASA has selected Science Applications International
Corp. (SAIC) of McLean, Va., to provide safety and mission assurance
engineering support services for the agency's Johnson Space Center in
Houston.

The indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity contract has a three-year
base period beginning Oct. 1, and a pair of one-year options that
would extend the contract through September 2018. Cost-plus-award fee
and firm-fixed-price task orders could bring the total contract value
to $202.5 million.

SAIC will support the Safety and Mission Assurance Directorate in
providing programmatic support to the International Space Station,
Orion Multi-Purpose Crew Vehicle, Extravehicular Activity Office,
Advanced Exploration Systems Office, and any future programs and
projects performed by Johnson.

Support under the contract requires skills associated with safety,
reliability, maintainability, quality and risk management at Johnson
and the White Sands Test Facility near Las Cruces, N.M.

Additionally, work will be performed at vendor manufacturing and
engineering facilities, including ARES Corp. in Burlingame, Calif.;
GHG Corp. in Webster, Texas; JES Tech in Houston; and Millennium
Engineering and Integration Co. in Arlington, Va.
