Potential offerors are responsible for downloading their own copy of the solicitation and amendments (if any). _______________________________________________________________________________________________________ THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL. NO PROPOSALS ARE TO BE SUBMITTED IN RESPONSE TO THIS NOTICE. NASA/The Lyndon B. Johnson Space Center (JSC) is hereby soliciting information from potential sources for the development of non-commercial Advanced Spacesuit Regulators (see attachment). These oxygen regulators are used to enable Extra Vehicular Activities (EVAs) in Low Earth Orbit (LEO) and lunar destinations. The regulators provide the necessary oxygen pressure control for the crew member during prebreathe, EVA, post EVA airlock operations, and Decompression Sickness (DCS) treatment. The regulators are intended to be a modular, drop-in solution that can be implemented within the existing government reference design spacesuit, the Exploration Extravehicular Mobility Unit (xEMU). The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) (JSC) NASA is seeking capability statements, Rough Order of Magnitudes (ROM) and a notional schedules that incorporate innovative ideas, novel approaches, relevant state-of-the-art commercial technologies, and industry proposed solutions. See the attachment for additional pertinent requirements information. Through this Sources Sought, NASA invites feedback from all U. S. commercial entities, which could lead to the potential development of a new oxygen regulator for spacesuit applications. NASA�s objective is to engage industry stakeholders in providing valuable insights to assist in the development of non-commercial spacesuit regulators.
