NASA AWARDS $148 MILLION CONTRACT TO RAYTHEON STX CORP

     Following a re-evaluation due to protests by competing 
companies in June 1997, NASA has selected Raytheon STX Corp., 
Lanham, MD, (formerly Hughes STX) for award of a $148.3 million 
contract to provide federal information processing services at 
NASA's Ames Research Center, Moffett Field, CA. 

     Included in the contract services are software development 
and maintenance, engineering operations and maintenance, network 
services, analysis, quality assurance and reviews.

     The new, five-year award includes a one-year base period 
followed by four one-year options.  Cost of the contract includes 
all options.  The contract will be managed at Ames.  The first 
year contract (base period) award is $32.7 million.  This is a 
cost-plus-incentive-fee, task order, completion-type contract.
