- Description
- This notice is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial services prepared in accordance with the format in FAR Subpart 12.6, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; offers are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued. Due to system character limitations, the RFP is contained in a separate link to this synopsis. This notice is being issued as a Request for Proposal (RFP)5-43356-H01 for the requirement to assist NASA in the transformation of the Agency's organizational and safety culture as recommended by the Columbia Accident Investigation Board (CAIB) Report (http://www.caib.us/). NASA seeks proposals from interested parties that will describe and lay out the framework for a comprehensive plan to develop and deploy an organizational culture change initiative within NASA, with an emphasis on safety culture and climate. This plan should provide for a systematic, integrated, NASA-wide approach to understanding prior and current safety climate and culture norms, diagnosing aspects of climate and culture that do not support the Agency's effective adoption of changes identified by the CAIB, and proposing a course or courses of action that will change behaviors and introduce new norms that will (1) eliminate barriers to a safety culture and mindset; (2) facilitate collaboration, integration and alignment of the NASA workforce in support of a strong safety and mission success culture; and (3) align with, but not duplicate, current initiatives already underway in the Agency such as OneNASA (http://www.onenasa.nasa.gov) and Return to Flight (http://www.nasa.gov/news/highlights/returntoflight.html). The provisions and clauses in the RFP are those in effect through FAC 01-18. The NAICS Code and the small business size standard for this procurement are 541990 and $5M. The Offeror shall state in its offer its size status for this procurement. The DPAS rating for this procurement is DO-C9. All responsible sources may submit an offer, which shall be considered by the Agency. The Government intends to award one or more Indefinite-Delivery, Indefinite-Quantity (IDIQ) contract(s) under which Firm-Fixed Price tasks will be issued. Although the contract allows for a 5-year ordering period, it is expected that the culture transformation will occur within the first 36 months. Offers for the items(s) described above are due by 1:00 p.m. (EST) on Tuesday, January 6, 2004 to NASA/Goddard Space Flight Center, Code 210.H, Greenbelt, MD 20771 and must include, solicitation number, FOB destination to this Center, proposed delivery schedule, discount/payment terms, warranty duration (if applicable), taxpayer identification number (TIN), CAGE Code, identification of any special commercial terms, and be signed by an authorized company representative. All contractual and technical questions must be in writing (e-mail or fax) to Leigh Anne Giraldi, Contracting Officer, (Leigh.Anne.C.Giraldi@nasa.gov) 301-286-0237 or Steve Lloyd, Contracting Officer (Steven.R.Lloyd@nasa.gov) 301-286-0356, not later than December 31, 2003. Telephone questions will not be accepted. An ombudsman has been appointed -- See NASA Specific Note "B".
