Assistance instruments or CFDA opportunities are anticipated and will be CALL dependent. PROPOSAL DUE DATE AND TIME: This BAA will remain open for a period of 5 years from the date of publication. NO PROPOSALS SHOULD BE SUBMITTED AGAINST THIS BASELINE BAA. Proposal due dates and times will be specified in each CALL. Proposals received after the due date and time specified in the CALL shall be governed by the provisions of FAR 52.215-1(c)(3). It should be noted that this installation observes strict security procedures to enter the facility. These security procedures are NOT considered an interruption of normal Government processes, and proposals received after the above stated date and time as a result of security delays will be considered "late". Note: If offerors use commercial carriers for delivery of proposals, carriers may not honor time-of-day delivery guarantees on military installations. Early proposal submission is encouraged. BRIEF PROGRAM SUMMARY: This is a 5 year Closed BAA describing the research areas of interest for the Research Options for Space Enterprise Technologies (ROSET). This closed BAA approach allows for submittals at a specified date and time, which will be posted through the issuance of CALL announcements at various times against this BAA. This BAA will be reviewed no less frequently than annually and updates will be published in FedBizOpps. Any changes or cancellation of the BAA will be posted as amendments to this BAA. The annual reviews and subsequent amendments to the BAA shall meet the requirement of Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 35.016. As requirements within the technical topic areas are identified, CALLs will be issued in FedBizOpps to request proposals for specific research efforts. These subsequent CALLs will contain specific descriptions of the research effort to be addressed, anticipated period of performance, information pertaining to the specific research technical topic area, and the estimated funding profile for the CALL. GENERAL INFORMATION: This acquisition will be UNRESTRICTED. Small businesses are encouraged to propose on all or any part of the BAA CALLs based on CALL specifics. This BAA is issued under the provisions of FAR 6.102(d)(2) that provides for the competitive selection of research proposals. Proposals submitted in response to this BAA that are selected for award are considered to be the results of full and open competition and in full compliance with the provisions of Public Law 98-369, the Competition in Contracting Act of 1984. Offerors MUST monitor FedBizOpps http://www.fbo.gov in the event this announcement is amended and for the posting of CALLs. CALLs: A CALL is a required posting, issued through FedBizOpps (http://www.fbo.gov), soliciting a specific/targeted response and/or proposal for specific research efforts. A CALL will contain a specific description of the research effort to be addressed, the anticipated period of performance, and any other information particular to the specific requested effort. CALLs are published independently at various times during the open period of the BAA and may use either a One-Step or Two-Step process. A CALL issued against the BAA will specify either a direct request for a technical and cost/business proposal, or a white paper submission as a means to determine if proposal will be required. TYPE OF CONTRACTS/INSTRUMENTS: The Air Force reserves the right to award the instrument best suited to the nature of the research proposed. Accordingly, the Government may award any appropriate contract type under the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) or Non-FAR instruments (i.e. Other Transaction (OT) for research efforts, grants, and cooperative agreements). For non-FAR Instruments, CALLS will be posted on grants.gov. The Government anticipates that a mix of contract types and other instruments will be used throughout the life of this BAA. Generally, awards under this BAA may be Cost plus Fixed Fee (Completion and Term), Cost Contract, Firm Fixed Price, Other Transaction Authority, Technology Investment Agreements, Grants, or Cooperative Agreements. Cost type contracts will require successful Offerors to have an accounting system deemed adequate by Defense Contract Audit Agency (DCAA) for tracking costs under a cost reimbursable contract (DFARS 242.75). If an Offeror does NOT have a DCAA approved accounting system, a Cost plus Fixed Fee and Cost Contract cannot be awarded. ANTICIPATED NUMBER OF AWARDS: The Air Force anticipates awarding a minimum of one contract per specific CALL. However, the Air Force does reserve the right to make multiple awards or no awards pursuant to a CALL. Technical Point of Contact: Dr. Andrew D.
