Request for Information (RFI) for Site Development Partnerships at NASA Langley Research Center

Scope

Over nearly two decades, NASA Langley has been consolidating its operational footprint into its central campus, freeing significant acreage for future development.

The Center has identified approximately 325 acres across seven developable parcels for potential lease opportunities, along with an additional 150 acres across two parcels that carry environmental and archaeological considerations that limit level of development possible on them.

NASA seeks ideas for potential future uses of all parcels as part of this RFI.

NASA seeks interest and ideas from industry, academia, and other non-federal government entities to lease and develop the NASA Langley AID Hub in whole or in part.

This interest should be from entities aligned to long-term operations of the NASA Langley Aerospace Innovation District (AID) Hub, which NASA is establishing to enable and grow private sector and intergovernmental participation in Langley's mission in support of NASA's Ignition priorities to ensure American space superiority.

Initial ideas for developing the land include, but are not limited to, facilities and infrastructure development that support: • National priorities in hypersonics, and efficient and secure interagency and international collaboration for aerospace technology development. • NASA’s missions and priorities through accelerated research, development, testing and evaluation of aerospace products, payload processing for space payloads, airborne testing of scientific payloads, autonomous systems capabilities for regional air mobility, and Lunar/Mars large-scale integrated simulation facilities for east coast operations. • Langley’s institutional needs through a publicly accessible gateway complex for academic consortium and international collaboration, public access to the history and n...
