NASA has awarded Boeing Space and Communications Group,
Houston, a $201.5 million contract to perform payload-
engineering integration, mission integration and payload
operations work for the International Space Station (ISS).
The new ISS Payload Integration Contract (IPIC) consolidates
station payload work under a single contract that had
previously been performed by Boeing under two contracts.
Work under the contract will be performed at NASA’s Johnson
Space Center, Houston, and NASA’s Marshall Space Flight
Center, Huntsville, Ala.
The IPIC is a cost-plus-award-fee contract that extends
through Sept. 30, 2004, and includes a one-year extension
option for fiscal year 2005.
