NASA AWARDS LAUNCH SERVICES PROGRAM SUPPORT CONTRACT

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. -- NASA has selected a.i. solutions Inc. of 
Lanham, Md., to receive a contract award that will enable the 
agency's Launch Services Program (LSP) to provide integrated services 
for the preparation and launch of NASA's next generation of 
scientific and exploration spacecraft. 

The Expendable Launch Vehicle Integrated Support 2 (ELVIS 2) contract 
has a potential maximum value of $138.1 million. This new contract 
resulted from a competitive, small business set-aside. 

The contract has a two-month phase-in period that begins February 
2012, followed by a one-and-a-half-year base period extending from 
April 1, 2012, through Sept. 30, 2013. Two option periods are 
available that would bring the total period of performance to five 
years. 

The ELVIS 2 contract supports LSP and LSP-sponsored missions, 
activities and strategic initiatives for multiple NASA programs, the 
Defense Department and other government agencies and commercial 
launch activities. The contract will provide LSP with program 
management support; vehicle engineering and analysis; launch site 
support engineering; communications and telemetry; technical 
integration services; LSP programmatic safety, reliability and 
quality support; support at Vandenberg Air Force Base in California; 
information technology support; and special studies.
