The work will be performed at Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama, and Johnson Space Center in Houston, Texas.

“I would like to thank NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center for its continued confidence in Teledyne Brown Engineering, and its capabilities,” said Robert Mehrabian, Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer of Teledyne Technologies. “I also appreciate the dedication of our Teledyne Brown Engineering employees who developed the winning MOSSI II proposal under the leadership of former president Janice L. Hess and current president Scott Hall. Scott’s continued leadership and guidance positions us well with performance under the MOSSI II contract.”

“Our team’s dedication to Marshall Space Flight Center, the International Space Station and NASA’s mission to explore space is undeniable,” stated Scott Hall, President of Teledyne Brown Engineering. “Our talent, experience and understanding of the multifaceted parameters in payload operations and console support have contributed to the success of the ISS program and we look forward to working on MOSSI II and future space programs.”

MOSSI II is a combination of the current MO&I and Huntsville Operations Support Center (HOSC) contracts.
