International Space Station (ISS) Cargo Mission Contract (CMC) Win! As a major contractor to Lockheed Martin, Bastion Technologies is proud of its recent selection by NASA to continue supporting the ISS cargo mission effort. CMC provides for planning, coordination, preparation, and packing of standardized containers for cargo missions to the Station by international partner and commercial cargo vehicles. The Lockheed Martin Team will perform analytical and physical processing activities to support unpressurized and pressurized cargo requirements for visiting vehicle flights to and from the ISS. Additionally, CMC services include the capability to build Flight Support Equipment (FSE) for pressurized and unpressurized cargo transportation, and provide sustaining engineering services for spaceflight vehicles and stowage platforms. The Flight Crew Equipment (FCE) element includes launch preparations and post-landing activities related to the overall processing of FCE required to support training, flight, and mission milestones. The $178 million dollar contract also includes provisions to support future vehicles that will supply the ISS. Bastion engineers and technical personnel will continue supporting vital areas, such as analytical and physical processing of both pressurized and unpressurized cargo, managing and operating the decal laboratory, developing engineering drawings, performing safety and reliability functions, and configuration management services. Work on the contract will be performed at NASA’s Johnson Space Center in Houston and other Texas locations for a 5-year period. | ||||||||||||
