Description
NASA/JSC has a requirement for sustaining engineering of the International Space Station (ISS) United States On-Orbit Segment (USOS), Post-Production Support (PPS) for the USOS, ISS vehicle integration and end-to-end subsystem management. Requirements include sustaining engineering of USOS hardware and software and common hardware provided to International Partners/Participants, Government-furnished equipment (GFE) owners, and payload developers; post-production support of USOS hardware and common hardware provided to the International Partners/Participants and GFE providers; and technical integration across all of the ISS segments. Requirements also include ISS end-to-end subsystem management for the majority of ISS subsystems and specialty engineering disciplines; and USOS and integrated system certification of flight readiness. It is anticipated that the period of performance for this contract extension will be five years from October 1, 2010 to September 30, 2015.
NASA/JSC intends to purchase these services from The Boeing Corporation. Boeing has developed requirements for and designed, developed, and certified the ISS USOS hardware and software, both stand-alone and with the integrated system. This experience gives them the unique ability to understand the on-orbit performance of the hardware and software, identify anomalies, and resolve issues and anomalies in a timely manner to ensure safety of crew and vehicle and mission success. Knowledge of the hardware and software systems is essential for quick responses to problems and is cost-effective in minimizing investigation of known conditions.
The Government does not intend to acquire a commercial item using FAR Part 12. See Note 26.
Interested organizations may submit their capabilities and qualifications to perform the effort in writing to the identified point of contact not later than 4:30 p.m. local time on May 29, 2009.
