NASA is planning a significant amendment to the ESSCA II solicitation due to a February 2026 Workforce Directive and an April 2026 Executive Order, which may require new or resubmitted proposals. The contract provides engineering and science support to the Marshall Space Flight Center, Michoud Assembly Facility, and Stennis Space Center, with limited support for other NASA centers. The hybrid IDIQ contract includes a four-month phase-in, a five-year base ordering period, and an optional three-year extension. No specific budget amount is mentioned in the description. Offerors should monitor SAM.gov for updates, as the amendment’s impact and timelines are still being assessed.
