[End of Presolicitation Notice – Synopsis]
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Glenn Research Center intends to issue a NASA Research Announcement (NRA) for two specific research initiatives: a Ceramic Matrix Composite (CMC) Manufacturing Study and an Open Fan Flight Demonstration Study. These studies support the Subsonic Vehicles Technologies and Tools (SVTT) Project within the Advanced Air Vehicles Program, which consolidates elements from previous vertical lift, air transport, and thermal core projects. The SVTT Project focuses on advancing technologies and concepts to accelerate the introduction of radical aircraft and engine designs across multiple vehicle classes, utilizing these studies to inform NASA’s technical work for next-generation propulsion systems.
This opportunity is classified under NAICS code 541715 for Research and Development in the Physical, Engineering, and Life Sciences (except Nanotechnology and Biotechnology) and PSC AR11 for Space R&D Services; Space Flight, Research and Supporting Activities; Basic Research. There is no set-aside assigned to this requirement. While the government does not intend to acquire commercial products or services under FAR Part 12, the project is managed under solicitation number 80GRC026R0002. Performance will take place within the United States.
The anticipated release date for the formal NRA is on or about April 23, 2026, with offers expected to be due on or about June 7, 2026. Interested parties must submit all contractual and technical questions electronically to the point of contact, Claude David, by the response deadline of April 7, 2026, at 5:00 PM EDT.
