AFP for LEASE OF THE CRYOGENICS COMPONENTS LABORATORY at GLENN RESEARCH CENTER

This Announcement for Proposal (AFP) solicits proposals for lease of the Cryogenics Components Laboratory (CCL Complex) at NASA’s Neil Armstrong Test Facility (ATF) in Sandusky Ohio, an underutilized, non-excess test facility used for the development and qualification of cryogenic materials, components, and systems. This solicitation includes both the test facilities and the accompanying land parcels required for a tenant to perform operations onsite.

The available land (“Land”) consists of four (4) parcels (Base and Options 1-3) totaling approximately 44 acres. NASA will accept Proposals for prospective leases for the Base parcel, plus whatever additional Option parcels the proposer chooses and indicates in the proposal. NASA will not accept Proposals for lease of the Option parcel(s) alone without a lease of the Base parcel. All Land is located inside of the controlled access portion of the NASA ATF Government-owned and Government-operated facility, which is designated as the “Fee Area.” The CCL Complex is in the central region of the Fee Area and was previously used for testing up to 2010.
