The Air Force Research Laboratory has begun seeking feedback on a draft request for proposals for a potential five-year, $499 million contract to provide research, engineering and technical management support for the development, integration, experimentation, evaluation and demonstration of space technologies.
According to a notice published Thursday, AFRL intends to compete the Space Systems and Hardware Integration for Novel Experiments indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contract as a total small business set-aside program.
The government will use the single-award SSHINE IDIQ contract to procure engineering and technical support in five functional areas: mission and space system development; flight experiment prototyping, assembly, integration and testing; flight experiment operations; ground system development; and program support.
Questions and comments on the draft solicitation are due Sept. 30.
In January, AFRL conducted market research for the SSHINE program.
