This award represents a delivery order contract granted to Tyvak Nano-Satellite Systems, Inc., based in Irvine, CA, under a larger, multi-year indefinite delivery contract with NASA's Armstrong Flight Research Center. Tyvak specializes in the development of advanced satellite systems and technologies, making them a suitable recipient for this specialized task. The contract involves the development of mission concepts specifically for the Geospace Dynamics Constellation (GDC) Trailblazer, aimed at addressing strategic objectives outlined in the Manifest Requirements Document for the GDC Trailblazer program. The work scope includes conceptual design and analysis efforts that will support future implementation plans associated with the Geospace Dynamics constellation. This award is significant as it contributes to NASA's ongoing efforts to advance space science missions and technology development that improve understanding of geospace dynamics. The contract was awarded as a delivery order under a previously competed indefinite delivery contract, ensuring competitive procurement standards were maintained. The performance period for this specific delivery order is relatively short term, spanning from late May to mid-July of 2026. This award builds upon an existing NASA contract for flight opportunities and payload integration services previously awarded to Tyvak in support of NASA's technology advancement programs.
