- Description
- ARRM Ranging Systems Request for Information The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) is soliciting information through this Request for Information (RFI) to improve its understanding of the current state-of-the-art technologies in commercially-available space-rated laser ranging and imaging systems. NASA is seeking broad information about systems previously flown, systems currently in development—including for other non-NASA missions—and future technologies that are relevant to long-duration spacecraft missions designed to operate in proximity with asteroids. In accordance with FAR 15.201(e), the information requested is for planning purposes only and is not intended to bind the Government. It is not NASA’s intent to publicly disclose vendor proprietary information obtained during this solicitation. To the full extent that it is protected pursuant to the Freedom of Information Act and other laws and regulations, information identified by a respondent as “Proprietary or Confidential” will be kept confidential. It is emphasized that this RFI is NOT a Request for Proposal, Quotation, or Invitation for Bid. This RFI is for information and planning purposes only and is subject to FAR Clause 52.215-3 entitled “Solicitation for Information or Planning Purposes”. This RFI is NOT to be construed as a commitment by the Government to enter into a contractual agreement, nor will the Government pay for information submitted in response to this RFI. No solicitation exists; therefore, do not request a copy of the solicitation. If a solicitation is released it will be synopsized in FedBizOpps and on the NASA Acquisition Internet Service. It is the potential offeror’s responsibility to monitor these sites for the release of any solicitation or synopsis. The Government reserves the right to consider a small business or 8(a) set-aside based on responses hereto. All questions must be submitted in writing to both points of contact as outlined below. As part of its assessment of industry capabilities, NASA GSFC may contact respondents to this RFI, if clarifications or further information is needed. Respondents will not be notified of the results of the evaluation. Any future solicitation and any documents related to this procurement will be available over the Internet. These documents will reside on a World Wide Web (WWW) server, which may be accessed using a WWW browser application. The Internet site, or URL, for the NASA/GSFC Business Opportunities home page is http://code210.gsfc.nasa.gov/procure.htm All queries must be submitted via e-mail to the point of contact listed below. Submit by 12/01/2016, 4:30 p.m. Eastern Standard Time
