- Description
- NASA/GRC has a requirement for Machining composite test specimens made out ofepoxy-based carbon fiber composites. This material was used for the nose cone on theexternal tank and Cincinnati Testing Laboratories extensively tested this material forLockheed Martin. NASA/GRC intends to purchase the items from Cincinnati Testing Laboratories, Inc., on asole source basis, to ensure consistency in the machining process and subsequent testresults with previous studies. CTL has completed testing performed under two previousNASA purchase orders. CTL has also tested the composite nose cone from the external tankof the shuttle. CTL has the demonstrated experience to machine and test this very uniquecomposite material systemThe Government intends to acquire a commercial item using FAR Part 12.Interested organizations may submit their capabilities and qualifications to perform theeffort in writing to the identified point of contact not later than 4:30 p.m. local timeon August 19, 2010.
