Executive Summary

NASA obligated $63,135,880 to McCallie Associates, Inc. for mission systems engineering services at Goddard Space Flight Center, comprising a fully civilian contract stream (0/1 defense-related). This 8(a) set-aside award, with a base + options ceiling of $298,000,000 through November 30, 2028, has $51,698,175 already outlayed and 115 subawards totaling $136,578,636. The dominant agency theme is NASA's prioritization of small disadvantaged, tribally-owned firms in specialized GN&C systems engineering under NAICS 541715. The highest-conviction signal is neutral (4/10 strength), reflecting significant commitment but unexercised options and subcontracting reliance. A key watch item is outlay progression beyond $51.7M alongside subaward spending versus obligations.
