- Description
- ***UPDATE*** As part of the Artemis lunar exploration program, NASA anticipates releasing in mid-June, a draft Request for Proposals for Gateway logistic deliveries, followed by an Industry Day on June 26, 2019 at the agency's Kennedy Space Center in Florida. NASA is targeting the first logistics delivery by 2024 to the established Gateway in lunar orbit. This commercial delivery will support activities for the agency's accelerated return to the surface of the Moon within five years. Companies will have the opportunity to meet one-on-one with NASA to discuss the solicitation and requirements June 26 and 27, 2019. Interested parties should continue to monitor FedBizOpps for more information and schedule updates. ***END UPDATE*** 1. PROJECT INTRODUCTION Working with U.S. industry and international partners, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) is leading the development of the first permanent cislunar outpost, known as the Gateway. The outpost will provide a platform to conduct long-term deep space operations, capability demonstrations to enable future exploration, and meaningful science on and around the Moon. The Gateway's core functions will include power and propulsion, communications, periodic crew habitation, robotics, an airlock, and logistics resupply capabilities. The logistics resupply capabilities are being procured by Kennedy Space Center (KSC) and will be the means by which services are provided for transporting cargo, equipment and consumables to and from the Gateway. Accordingly, KSC is hereby seeking information from interested parties to determine industry capabilities and to assist the Government in refining the acquisition strategy and requirements for providing Gateway Logistics Services via a Logistics Module. It is anticipated that the acquisition will draw on commercial space cargo servicing capabilities and launch vehicle services currently available in the market and under development. This SSN is only open to responses from U.S. companies. This upcoming procurement from NASA is for U.S. domestic provided logistics module services only. NASA is anticipating future international Gateway partners to contribute logistic services as well, with details to be worked out at a later date.
