Calibration and Metrology Services V (CAMS V)

Quick Summary

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Johnson Space Center (JSC) is conducting a Sources Sought/Request for Information (RFI) for Calibration and Metrology Services V (CAMS V). This is a follow-on to the current CAMS IV contract, seeking to identify qualified sources for operating and maintaining JSC’s Metrology Standards and Calibration Laboratory (MSCL) in Houston, TX. Responses are due by February 19, 2026, 5:00 p.m. CST.

Scope of Work

The CAMS V contract will involve operating and maintaining JSC’s MSCL in Building 343, providing calibration operations for Measurement and Test Equipment (MTE) for JSC, other NASA centers, and Federal Government Agencies. The anticipated contract type is a Single-Award, 100% Indefinite-Delivery, Indefinite-Quantity (IDIQ) Firm-Fixed-Price (FFP). Requirements will be issued as FFP task orders.

Key services include:

• Contract Management and Administration
• Documentation and Records Management
• MSCL Equipment and Facilities
