- Description
- NASA Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) plans to issue a Request for Proposal (RFP) for GeoCarb Access to Space (GCATS) Mission. The overall needs for GCATS are envisioned to include: spacecraft; observatory integration and test; command uplink from the industry-provided Mission Operations Center (MOC); downlink of GeoCarb engineering and science telemetry to the industry-allocated Ground Station(s); delivery of error-checked GeoCarb data to various mission partners; and all related tasks and support needed during the planned GeoCarb Mission (i.e., launch support, in-orbit check-out, and three years of mission operations) and three one-year options for continued mission operations. The Government does not intend to acquire a commercial item using FAR Part 12. The NAICS Code and Size Standard are 336414 Guided Missile and Space Vehicle Manufacturing and 1,250 employees, respectively. The anticipated release date of the RFP is on or about mid-April 2022 with an anticipated offer due date in June 2022.� The firm date for receipt of bids or proposals shall be stated in the RFP. All responsible sources may submit an offer which shall be considered by the agency. The solicitation shall contain documents that are export controlled. Notice is hereby provided that access to the drawings and specifications will be limited to offerors certified by Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Joint Certification Program (JCP). Specifications and Drawings have an Export Determination of EAR 99 and are considered controlled documents.� Therefore, download of documents won�t be permitted until requesters have been cleared through DLA JCP. Please begin DLA registration immediately since clearance could take a couple of weeks.� All contractors interested in receiving drawings and specifications for this project will have to ensure they have been screened by the DLA JCP by completing a DD Form 2345.� To complete the DD Form 2345, go to the website at: https://www.dla.mil/HQ/LogisticsOperations/Services/JCP/SpecificDD2345Instructions.aspx.� This process does take time and the Government encourages contractors to start as soon as possible. If a contractor has been previously screened by DLA, they can verify if their status is still active by utilizing their cage code at: https://public.logisticsinformationservice.dla.mil/jcp/search.aspx Requesting copies of export controlled documents for accessing the full solicitation shall be handled through SAM.gov.�� 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 It is the offeror's responsibility to monitor this website for the release of the solicitation and amendments (if any). Potential offerors will be responsible for downloading their own copy of the solicitation and amendments (if any). Prospective offerors are encouraged to notify this office of their intent to submit an offer. All contractual and technical questions must be submitted electronically via email to Michelle Crawford, Contracting Officer, email: Michelle.L.Crawford@nasa.gov not later than 4:00pm EDT, 13 April 2022.
