CACI International Inc announced that it has been awarded a four-year single-award, indefinite delivery indefinite quantity expertise contract worth up to $150 million to continue its support of spaceflight systems, simulation, and software for NASA Johnson Space Center (JSC). The program provides advanced aerospace engineering for crewed spacecraft systems, development of simulation and Virtual Reality (VR) applications, and software in support of human space flight. This award builds on more than three decades of CACI’s dedicated support for JSC’s mission.
“This award demonstrates CACI’s proven expertise in supporting advanced systems for human spaceflight and space vehicles. We look forward to continuing this work and offering full-spectrum engineering and software solutions as NASA’s trusted provider,” said John Mengucci, CACI President and Chief Executive Officer.
Work on this contract will be performed in the Houston area with JSC’s Engineering Directorate, primarily the Software, Robotics, and Simulation Division. CACI will provide aerospace systems engineering and analysis support across a range of spacecraft systems including robotics and dynamics; guidance, navigation, and control; avionics, and power. Support includes developing software applications for in-flight systems, high-fidelity modeling and simulation, and VR graphics used to model spacecraft and the space environment for engineering analyses and astronaut extravehicular activity training.
