Facility Request Process 

1. Customer contacts the facility manager and/or submits a test request form. See below for the Facility Request Form. 

2. The facility manager will contact the customer to discuss the request and obtain detailed test requirements. 

3. After test requirements and schedule are finalized, the facility manager will provide a high-fidelity cost estimate for review and prepare a formal agreement for signature. 

4. Once the agreement is signed by both NASA Glenn and the customer, and the work is funded, the test execution may begin per the agreement.
