- Description
- NASA John F. Kennedy Space Center intends to award a sole-source contract extension to Space Mark Inc (SMI), Colorado Springs, Colorado, pursuant to 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1); only one responsible source under Contract NAS10-12060. NASA KSC intends to extend the existing contract for a period of six (6) months consisting of a one-month basic period and five one-month options, from July 01, 2002 through December 31, 2002, to allow the orderly award and transition of the follow-on contract (Expendable Launch Vehicle Integrated Support (ELVIS). The current contractor provides Operations Support Services for NASA's Vandenberg Launch Site at Vandenberg Air Force Base, CA. These services include payload processing support consisting of long-range planning, coordination, technical documentation, requirements processing and scheduling; operational support consisting of SCAPE requirements, with the USAF, servicing of spacecraft fueling equipment, transportation and offloading of spacecraft, and operation of telemetry, office automation, television and operational intercom systems; facility support consisting of operation, maintenance, management, and modification of assigned facilities, systems, and equipment; support services such as logistics administrative, security, inspection, procurement, and training services. The Operations Support Services provide a wide range of support and are essential to support launch activities at the NASA Vandenberg Launch Site. SMI has managed the current contract since December 1993, and has the infrastructure in place to continue to provide these services without any interruption, for the brief extension period. They have the experience, management skills, and trained personnel to carry out the day-to-day operations and meet the required schedules. Because of the time involved in procuring and phasing-in services from another contractor and because of the short-term nature of the contract extension, SMI is considered to be the only source capable of meeting NASA's needs without a disruption of services. This is not a formal solicitation. This synopsis is not considered a request for proposals. There is no solicitation document available. Interested organizations may submit their capabilities and qualifications to perform the effort in writing to the identified point of contact not later than 4:00 P.M. Eastern Time on April 19, 2002. Such capabilities and qualifications will be evaluated solely for the purpose of determining whether or not to conduct this procurement on a competitive basis. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed effort on a full and open competitive basis, based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. An Ombudsman has been appointed, See NASA Specific Note "B".
