Wyle‘s science, technology and engineering business unit in Houston has received a $75 million contract modification from NASA for continued support to the Johnson Space Center’s human health and performance directorate.
The modification brings the contract’s value to nearly $1.5 billion and extends Wyle’s support until at least the end of April 2015, NASA said Thursday.
Wyle STE Group will provide research, engineering, medical and operations and flight development services for crews on the Orion and International Space Station programs.
Work will also cover areas such as program integration, human adaptation, space medicine, habitability and environment factors and other concerns that help ensure the safety, health and productivity of its space crews.
Contract work occurs at JSC and Ellington Field in Houston and the White Sands Test Facility in Las Cruces, New Mexico.
