SP -- SPECIAL NOTICE: NASA ACQUISITIONS AVAILABLE OVER THE INTERNET NASA brings "push" technology to the NASA Acquisition Internet Service (NAIS). Vendors interested in getting immediate notice of NASA business opportunities can now register to receive procurement announcements by email. The announcements include advance procurement notices, solicitation releases, post-award notices, and other general procurement notices. To take advantage of this free service go to http://procurement.nasa.gov/maillist.html and complete the online form. Anytime after registering you may unsubscribe at the same location. The NAIS provides a host of other services. For more than a year now, NASA has been posting all competitive acquisitions over $25,000 on the Internet. Included are the advance and post-award procurement announcements, plus the actual solicitation files, available immediately upon release. An index of the acquisitions can be sorted by date posted, NASA center, and product / service classification code. A search capability enables prospective offerors to quickly identify relevant acquisitions. The NAIS also provides online access to acquisition forecasts, active contract data, small business assistance, the NASA FAR Supplement, and links to other federal procurement sites on the Internet. NASA has been granted a waiver from synopsizing acquisitions valued at $500,000 and below in the Commerce Business Daily; the synopses and solicitations of those acquisitions can be retrieved only from the Internet. All other synopses continue to be posted in the Commerce Business Daily in addition to the Internet. Visit the NAIS Home Page at http://procurement.nasa.gov/ to begin taking advantage of these services.
