Mechanical Components, DSS-54 Deep Space Antenna, Madrid Deep Space Communications Complex (MDSCC)

NASA Office of JPL Management and Oversight (NOJMO) intends to award a sole-source, firm-fixed-price contract to Asturfeito, S.A. (Vitoria-Gasteiz, Spain) for the fabrication and delivery of mechanical components for the DSS-54 Deep Space Antenna at the Madrid Deep Space Communications Complex (MDSCC), Robledo de Chavela, Spain. The requirement consists of mechanical components, including the beam waveguide shroud, mirror positioner assembly, universal platform, and related assemblies, manufactured in accordance with the existing technical specifications and drawings developed under the DSS-54 Antenna Facilities Construction and Relocation Project.

These components must interface precisely with structural, drive, and control elements already designed, fabricated, or installed by Asturfeito, S.A. under the related host-nation construction contract. NASA has determined that Asturfeito, S.A. is the only available source possessing the technical data package, design specifications, manufacturing tooling, and qualification necessary to produce components compatible with the existing antenna interfaces within the required 210-day manufacturing lead time, in accordance with RFO 12.102. This notice is not a request for competitive proposals.

However, any responsible source that believes it can meet this requirement may submit a capability statement in writing to the Contracting Officer identified by the due date.
