This requirement?s NAICS code is 517110. This is not a solicitation announcement. This sources sought synopsis is for information and planning purposes and is not to be construed as a commitment by the Government, nor will the Government pay for information solicited. Since this is a sources sought announcement, no evaluation letters and/or results will be issued to the respondents. Respondents deemed fully qualified will be considered in any resultant solicitation for the requirement. You are requested to provide electronic responses (20 page maximum (including attachments)) via e-mail to the primary Point of Contact(s) (POC) for this requirement. Your response is required by March 6, 2007. To facilitate a prompt review by the NASA team, a one (1) page summary shall be included with your capability statement(s), which identifies your company?s specific capabilities that are relevant to the requirement. Companies are also requested to provide their name, address, POC, average annual revenue for the past three yeas, number of employees, and your Government size/ type classification (Large, Small, Small Disadvantaged, 8(a), Woman-owned, Service Disabled Veteran , and HUBZone) on the summary page. It is insufficient to provide only general brochures or generic information. Copies of your capability statement(s) may be made available to this requirement?s Prime Contractor competitors in the future and should therefore not contain company-sensitive information. KSC is also interested in potential prime contractor feedback related to subcontracting opportunities, given the possibility this action may be competed on an unrestricted basis. This feedback would be used as research information to support the analysis and development of subcontracting goals. This feedback should also be provided electronically via e-mail to the appropriate work package POC(s) by March 6, 2007.
