## Description

This contract action was not awarded competitively and is not fixed-price. The contract was awarded sole source to Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) under 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1), Only One Responsible Source, due to its unique qualifications and the need to maintain continuity for the HelioSwarm (HS) MIDEX mission. The redacted JOFOC will be posted within the required timefram. The contract type is Cost-Plus-Fixed-Fee because the requirement involves complex research and development efforts for which a fixed-price contract is not appropriate.
