Work with NASA
Marshall Space Flight Center
Marshall’s business development and opportunity management organization actively identifies, captures, and pursues new work for the center in the areas of propulsion, space transportation and launch vehicles, space systems, and scientific research.
Focus Areas and Capabilities
Marshall has forged solid connections with innovative companies, laboratories, and academic institutes across the country and around the world. We enjoy responsive, mutually beneficial relationships with organizations in a broad range of scientific and technological fields. To support our mission, we are seeking to team with industry and other government agencies to ascertain areas of shared interests in product development and/or application. Briefing us on your capabilities will help us understand who you are, what you do and what products you offer that would be of mutual benefit. If you have a complementary area of technology or research to support Marshall’s missions and core capabilities, we look forward to hearing from you.
