The contract covers development, maintenance, and application of Guidance, Navigation, and Control (GN&C) products and services for the Aeroscience and Flight Mechanics Division (AFMD) within JSC's Engineering Directorate. In accordance with FAR Subpart 5, NASA conducted market research to identify potential sources capable of meeting agency requirements:
