- Description
- NASA/JSC has a requirement to purchase RF/Optical Telescope development using advance 3D manufacturing processes. NASA/JSC intends to purchase the item from Sciperio Inc. The scope of work involves the design and manufacture, via Direct Digital Manufacturing (DDM), of a 30 centimeter dual radio frequency (RF) antenna/optical telescope parabolic reflector assembly. The goal of this work is to demonstrate that the use of tightly-integrated additive/subtractive manufacturing, high-speed/high-resolution metrology, and micron-scale precision motion control, offers the potential to dramatically improve component performance and manufacturing tolerances. Current market research indicates other companies have similar resources, however they cannot develop, manufacture and test parts to the precision of NASA requirements. The Government intends to acquire the required item using FAR Part 12 Interested organizations may submit their capabilities and qualifications to perform the effort in writing to the identified point of contact no later than 1:30 p.m. CST on September 28, 2016. 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 not to compete this proposed effort on a full and open competition basis, based on responses to this notice, is solely within the discretion of the Government. Oral communications are not acceptable in response to this notice. All responsible sources may submit an offer which shall be considered by the agency. NASA Clause 1852.215-84, Ombudsman, is applicable. The Center Ombudsman for this acquisition can be found at http://prod.nais.nasa.gov/pub/pub_library/Omb.html
