NASA's Johnson Space Center/White Sands Test Facility (WSTF) hosted an Industry Day for the Test Evaluation and Support Team 4 (TEST4) acquisition. The event provided an overview of the proposed TEST4 acquisition, work at WSTF, and promoted competition. Key topics included WSTF's mission in testing materials and propulsion systems, its core capabilities in rocket propulsion, oxygen systems, and hypervelocity impact testing, and its customer base including NASA programs and other government agencies. The anticipated TEST4 contract, starting February 1, 2027, will be an Indefinite-Delivery, Indefinite-Quantity (IDIQ) hybrid with Cost Plus Award Fee and Firm-Fixed-Price Task Orders. A draft Request for Proposal (RFP) is expected in March 2026, with the final RFP in April 2026 and award in October 2026. One-on-one meetings are scheduled for January 2026.

NASA's Johnson Space Center/White Sands Test Facility (WSTF) hosted an Industry Day for the Test Evaluation and Support Team 4 (TEST4) acquisition. The event provided an overview of the proposed TEST4 contract, aiming to promote competition and foster industry understanding of NASA's vision. The TEST4 contract, anticipated to begin in February 2027, is a 5-year Indefinite-Delivery, Indefinite-Quantity (IDIQ) hybrid contract with both Cost Plus Award Fee and Firm-Fixed-Price Task Orders. It will cover rocket propulsion, oxygen systems, composite pressure systems, hypervelocity impact testing, propellant and aerospace fluids testing, spaceflight component services, and flight acceptance standard tests. NASA encouraged industry feedback and outlined a procurement schedule including a draft RFP in March 2026, a final RFP in April 2026, and an award in October 2026. One-on-one meetings and a site tour are scheduled for January 2026.

The TEST4 series of government solicitations addresses various aspects of a NASA acquisition, primarily focusing on Research and Development in the Physical, Engineering, and Life Sciences, specifically for Guided Missiles and Space Vehicles, with a NAICS code of 541715 and a 1,300-employee size standard. Key discussion points include the continuation of fire and emergency services under the TEST4 acquisition, rather than enterprise contracts, and the associated responsibilities for Fire Protection and Medical Response, as well as Protective Services Dispatch. IT components supporting scientific tests, including data acquisition systems and software quality control, are also highlighted, with confirmation that Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) will not be required. Details regarding one-on-one meetings and site tours for industry day participants are provided, along with clarification on high-pressure systems maintained at WSTF. The small business set-aside status for this contract remains undetermined, urging continuous monitoring of SAM.gov for the final Request for Proposal.
