NASA JPL is conducting pre-RFI market research to identify qualified small businesses and joint ventures for spacecraft electrical power systems support. - Government Buyer: - NASA Management Office at Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), managed by Caltech University - Scope of Work: - Support across the full lifecycle: design, development, analysis, integration, testing, and qualification - Electrical Power Systems (EPS), solar arrays, batteries, power electronics and distribution - High-power and high-voltage systems, direct-drive architectures, energy storage, and power management/distribution - Expertise in solar array performance, degradation, and spacecraft power interactions with electric propulsion systems - Unique Requirements: - Demonstrated experience in spacecraft electrical power systems - Relevant expertise with electric propulsion system interactions - No specific OEMs, vendors, products, part numbers, or quantities are listed - Opportunity is focused on gathering information from small businesses with proven capabilities

Description

The Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) is reviewing options to find Small Businesses and/or Small Business Joint Ventures or Teams led by a Small Businesses with experience performing the below scope tasks.

JPL is seeking information from qualified small businesses with demonstrated experience supporting spacecraft electrical power systems throughout the design, development, analysis, integration, testing, and qualification lifecycle. Relevant capabilities include electrical power systems (EPS), solar arrays, batteries, power electronics and distribution, high-power and high-voltage systems, direct-drive architectures, energy storage, and power management and distribution. Experience with solar array performance and degradation and spacecraft power interactions with electric propulsion systems is particularly relevant.

If interested in this opportunity, please download and complete the attachment documents and submit to the JPL Small Business Programs Office (SBPO) at smallbusiness.programsoffice@jpl.nasa.gov.

Also, JPL will host three webinars on the dates listed below to address questions live. Contract Technical Managers, the Subcontracts Manager, and representatives from the JPL Small Business Programs Office may be in attendance.
