This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; quotes are being requested and a separate written solicitation will not be issued. This solicitation is issued as a Request for Quote (RFQ) for MEDEVAC 4. The Government intends to acquire commercial services using FAR Part 12 in conjunction with FAR Part 13 - Simplified Acquisition Procedures. The resulting contract will be a Firm Fixed Price (FFP) Purchase Order. This solicitation document and incorporated provisions and clauses are those in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular 2021-05. The NAICS Code and the small business size standard for this procurement are 621910 and revenue of $15 million, respectively. The Offeror shall state in their offer their size status for this procurement. All responsible sources may submit an offer, which shall be considered by the agency. Relevant Attachments: 1.�Proposal Pricing Sheet 2.�SF1449 3.�Model Contract 4.�Russia and Kazakhstan Medical Facilities 5.�NASA Historical Travel Data � FY16 - FY20 6.�NASA Actual Usage Data - 2011 - June 2021 7.�NASA Internal Risk Assessment � Through August 2020 � Attachments 4 through 7 in the solicitation are critical documents to review to understand the actual usage of the previous contracts. Please review these attachments carefully to best understand the requirements of this procurement. Attachment 4, Russia and Kazakhstan Medical Facilities, describes the known hospital and medical facilities most likely to be used by NASA to support a medical situation during NASA operations in Russia and Kazakhstan. This does not preclude other solutions provided by the Contractor. Attachment 5, NASA Historical Travel Data � FY16-FY20, states the cumulative number of international travel days broken out by year from 2016 through June 2021. The total number of travel days has been approximately 46,309 and the total number of countries visited during this time has been approximately 51 countries. Attachment 6, NASA Actual Usage Data - 2011 - June 2021, shows how many medical incidents NASA/JSC reported to the Contractor over the past 10 years. During these 10 years, there were 11 relevant cases requiring contractor support. There were no Level 4 incidents, which required air ambulance transport. There were three Level 3 cases, which the contractor provided a commercial return flight to the US for the injured/sick traveler. There were two Level 2 cases that required professional medical care in a hospital/clinic, but treated locally without transport to the US. Finally, there were six Level 1 cases, which were considered minor incidents or only required the contractor to provide advisory services. Attachment 7, NASA Internal Risk Assessment - Through August 2020, depicts the results of a risk assessment performed for NASA internal use on the likelihood of a medical incident per travel day, based on actuals for completed trips between July 1, 2014 through August 31, 2020. This data should not be construed as NASA requirements, usage, or predictor of future NASA needs. This does not replace potential future Offeror�s own risk assessment. NASA is not requesting any political security advisory or evacuation services. MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS This notice is being issued as a Request for Quote (RFQ) for MEDEVAC 4.

Offerors must also demonstrate their ability to provide a GOP and state the steps involved. The response for each scenario shall not exceed two pages each. Responses shall be submitted in a Microsoft Word document in Times New Roman, size 12 font. A) A 37-year old female NASA sponsored traveler is at Baikonur Cosmodrome, Kazakhstan. Early in the day, her husband launched aboard a Soyuz headed to the space station. She is 22 weeks pregnant and she develops abdominal pain and vaginal spotting. Local medical capability cannot provide appropriate care for her. NASA has a physician onsite supporting her. Her 12-year old daughter is also present at Baikonur. NASA contacts you requesting urgent medical evacuation. The patient is requesting transportation to the University of Texas Medical Branch Hospital in Galveston, Texas where her OBGYN doctor will see her. She also insists on having her daughter and NASA flight surgeon return on the same aircraft with her. B) A 48-year old NASA astronaut is performing a Soyuz landing training session at a remote field site 50 miles due east of Dzhezkazgan, Kazakhstan. During this training, the astronaut is noted to have atrial fibrillation. The astronaut is placed on rate control medication and anticoagulant. The accompanying NASA flight surgeon determines the astronaut is stable but requires return to the Cleveland Clinic in Cleveland, Ohio for appropriate care. At this point NASA notifies the contractor with the request along with the latitude and longitude of the astronaut and NASA flight surgeon. C) A 64-year old NASA male scientist becomes ill while on travel with NASA. He is in Tanegashima, Japan. The local medical facility has treated him to their maximum ability, and they recommend medical evacuation to a higher level of care. At the time NASA contacts you, he is on IV hydration and pain control. The presumptive diagnosis is acute pancreatitis though the local facility cannot confirm. He is from Las Cruces, New Mexico and requests travel to Memorial Medical Center for hospitalization and further evaluation. D) A previously healthy 51-year old female NASA employee is on NASA travel on the Kwajalein Atoll in the Marshall Islands. She collapses during a meeting. NASA contacts the contractor requesting urgent assistance with admittance to a local hospital with an Intensive Care Unit. She is diagnosed with a brain tumor, advanced, requires ventilator support and anti-seizure medications. Otherwise, she is stable and non-operative. The hospital will not discharge her until the hospital fees are paid, but she is traveling solo and does not have her wallet with her. The patient is non-communicative, but the next of kin indicates the desire to have the patient transferred to Los Angeles, California and mentions �Cedars Sinai Cancer Center� near their home.� B. Price Offerors shall provide pricing on the attached Attachment�1, Proposal Pricing Sheet. As this procurement will result in a firm-fixed-price purchase order, Offerors shall provide firm-fixed pricing that is all-inclusive (including profit and fees) for the required services on the Proposal Pricing Sheet. Additional pricing terms will not be accepted. The Proposal Pricing Sheet contains two sections: 1. Pre-paid group membership price 2. NASA identified independent traveler membership pricing Each section has an �a� and �b� pricing table. The �a� table represents the baseline pricing for the period and terms specified in the title of the table. The �b� table represents the optional delta price for Medevac Using Portable Medical Isolation Unit (e.g. infectious disease) only. If the Government orders Medevac Using Portable Medical Isolation Unit (e.g. infectious disease) coverage for the stated periods, the sum of tables �a� and �b� shall represent the total price of services.� The Offeror shall submit a completed Proposal Pricing Sheet with their proposal. Travel Days The values in the Number of Travel Days columns in Tables 1a and 1b represent the cumulative number of travel days covered across all travelers in the contract period specified in that row. For example, 3 travelers attending meetings in Moscow, Russia for 5 days would equal a total 15 travel days. These travel days do not include the travel of NASA identified independent travelers covered by Tables 2a. and 2b. Accordingly, the Contractor is expected to cover 22,500 travel days for the Base period of performance under the resulting contract, and 15,000 travel days per year for each of the remaining Option periods, if exercised. C. Contact Information and Response Time All responsible sources may submit an offer, which shall be considered by the agency. The Government intends to make a single award for all items on an ""all or none"" basis; therefore, Offerors must propose all items. Partial quotes will not be accepted. All contractual and technical questions must be emailed to Portia Keyes (portia.s.keyes@nasa.gov) no later than July 30, 2021, at 6:00PM CDT. Telephone questions will not be accepted. Offers for the items(s) described above are due by 6:00PM CDT on August 13, 2021, to portia.s.keyes@nasa.gov and must include, solicitation number, FOB destination to the Johnson Space Center, discount/payment terms, warranty duration, taxpayer identification number (TIN), identification of any special commercial terms, and be signed by an authorized company representative. Offerors are encouraged to use the Standard Form 1449, Solicitation/Contract/Order for Commercial Items, found as an attachment to this solicitation. D. Applicable Provisions, Clauses, Terms and Conditions Offerors shall provide the information required by FAR 52.212-1 (JUL 2021), Instructions to Offerors-Commercial Items, which is incorporated by reference. Proposals received in response to this solicitation will be evaluated using the procedures specified in FAR 52.212-2 (OCT 2014), Evaluation-Commercial Items. Paragraph (a) of provision FAR 52.212-2 is updated as follows: (a)�The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible Offeror whose offer conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers: (i) Price. The Government will evaluate the offerors submission of the completed Proposal Pricing Sheet. The Government will determine the final evaluated price by adding the total price in tables 1a and 1b to the adjusted proposed prices in tables 2a and 2b. The proposed prices in tables 2a and 2b will be adjusted, for evaluation purposes only, as follows: The Government will calculate the average price of the Membership Types proposed in tables 2a and 2b. Each of these averages will be multiplied by 1,000. Table 2a Price Adjustment Example: 2.a Pre-Paid Membership Price for NASA Identified Independent Traveler (excluding Portable Medical Isolation Unit Evacuations) Coverage for 14 days per year�$ 100 Coverage for 30 days per year�$ 200 Coverage for 90 days per year�$ 300 Coverage for 365 days per year�$ 400 Average Price = ($100+$200+$300+$400)/4 = $250 Adjusted Price = $250 *1,000 = $250,000 (ii) Technical Capability For the purpose of proposal evaluations, Price is significantly more important than Technical Capability. � Offerors shall include a completed copy of the provision at FAR 52.212-3 (FEB 2021), Offeror Representations and Certifications-Commercial Items, with its offer. These representations and certifications will be incorporated by reference in any resultant contract. � FAR 52.212-4 (OCT 2018), Contract Terms and Conditions-Commercial Items, applies to this acquisition. Addenda to FAR 52.212-4 are provided in attachment 3. Model Contract. FAR 52.212-5 (JULY 2021), Contract Terms and Conditions Required To Implement Statutes or Executive Orders-Commercial Items, applies to this acquisition and clauses incorporated by reference are provided in attachment 3.
