- SMC Booster Propulsion and Launch System Industry Day - Registration Information ***This is identical to Amendment 2 posted 5 September 2014*** Interested parties are hereby invited to participate in Industry Day sessions to be held on 24-26 Sep 2014 regarding the recently released Booster Propulsion and Launch System Request for Information (RFI No. 14-090) from Space and Missile Systems Center (SMC) on 20 Aug 2014. DESCRIPTION: SMC will be conducting a Booster Propulsion and Launch System Industry Day. The purpose of this meeting is to provide interested companies/entities with an overview of specific areas of interest, promote an early exchange of information, and provide an opportunity for both the Government and Industry to gather more information regarding RFI No 14-090 posted on FBO on 20 Aug 2014. Companies who plan to submit a response to RFI No. 14-090 are encouraged to use this opportunity to present their responses to the Government in person. Please note the general session will be held 24 Sep 14 from 0830 to 1000 for interested parties to obtain information from the Government Program Managers and Contracting team. Check in time is from 0745 to 0820. One-on-one sessions with interested companies will be scheduled during the remainder of 24 Sep 14 and all day on 25 and 26 Sep 14. There is no set format for one-on-one sessions. Companies may provide a presentation, ask questions, provide feedback to the RFI, or a combination of these. The one-on-one sessions are limited to 60 minutes. One-on-one sessions will be scheduled based on the order in which SMC receives the necessary registration information from a company. The Industry Day general session will be held at the Aerospace Corporation, El Segundo, CA 90245, building A1. One-on-one sessions will be held at Los Angeles Air Force Base, El Segundo, CA 90245. Registration for this event (both general session and one-on-one sessions) is required. Please contact the Contracting Office and Technical POCs below by email to register for an Industry Day session. Registration must be submitted no later than 1600 (PDT) on 11 Sep 2014. Due to space constraints, attendance will be limited to seven individuals per company. For access to the Aerospace facilities and Air Force base all attendees will be required to submit the following: first, middle and last name, country of citizenship, date of birth, drivers license number and state of issuance, and organization they will be representing. If an individual session is desired, the registration must also state an individual session is requested and provide contact information for a POC to facilitate scheduling. The requested information must be submitted no later than 1600 (PDT) on 11 Sep 2014. Once an attendee's information is provided, you will be given directions, entrance instructions, and information on Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs). Attendees are encouraged to submit written questions in advance. Questions provided in advance are due by 1600 (PDT) on 11 Sep 2014. Unless annotated as proprietary to be handled in the one-on-one sessions, questions will be assumed to be general and responses may be provided during the Introductory Briefing at the general session. The individual session will be held at the company proprietary information (PROPIN) level. The Government plans to have FFRDC (Aerospace Corporation) and SETA support in attendance and review RFI responses. Current government SETA contractors include: Integrity Applications, ExoAnalytic Solutions, ManTech, Scitor, Tecolote and Omni Corporation. Respondents to the RFI that require a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) with Aerospace Corp or any SETA contractors are responsible for having these in place prior to the RFI response submittal. Points of contact for each company listed above will be provided with the entrance instructions provided after registration. The NDA process needs to be complete before delivery of the RFI response due date (19 Sep) and individual industry day sessions. Note: This is NOT a "bidder's conference" and this announcement is not a contract, request for proposal, a promise to contract, or a commitment of any kind. The information provided may or may not result in further action. The Government does not intend to award a contract on the basis of this information or otherwise pay for the information requested except as an allowable cost under an existing contract, if so identified and in accordance with FAR 31.205-18, Bid and Proposal Costs. For those that cannot make the Industry Day, a copy of the slides used will be posted to FBO as well as non-proprietary questions and answers. In addition, a list of the vendors present at this event may be published on the FedBizOps (FBO) website or otherwise made public. Any vendor wishing to be excluded from public announcements needs to indicate this in their registration.
