- Description
- NASA LSP is awarding a VADR IDIQ contract to Firefly Space Transport Services, LLC (Firefly) in order to satisfy the need for multiple providers for spacecraft in the 500-1,000 kg grouping.� Firefly is the only launch vehicle provider in this grouping that has completed development and conducted its first test launch of their Alpha Launch Vehicle. The need for multiple providers in this grouping is further compounded by the fact that all of the launch vehicles in this range are under development and a single failure, with only one provider on contract, will detract from NASA�s ability to successfully fly existing and near future missions.�The statutory authority permitting other than full and open competition is 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(3), as implemented by FAR 6.302-3, Industrial mobilization; engineering, developmental, or research capability; or expert services (10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(3)).
