About this award

This is a cost-plus-fixed-fee delivery order contract awarded by NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center to The Aerospace Corporation, a non-profit federally funded research and development center (FFRDC), to provide specialized engineering support services for the Joint Polar Satellite System (JPSS) flight segment. The JPSS program was established after the restructuring of the National Polar-orbiting Operational Environmental Satellite System (NPOESS). The contract, valued at $17,377,073.15, requires The Aerospace Corporation to provide electrical systems engineering, instrument systems engineering, and other technical services to support the development of the JPSS satellites, which will be operated by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). The contract does not have a set-aside designation, and The Aerospace Corporation is the prime contractor without any major subcontractors mentioned.

Description

Specialized engineering support to joint polar satellite system (JPSS) flight segment restructuring of the national polar-orbiting operational environmental satellite system (NPOESS) has resulted in NOAA and NASA assuming acquisition responsibility for the afternoon orbit of the constellation. These satellites, renamed the joint polar satellite system (JPSS) flight segment, will be developed by NASA goddard space flight center (GSFC) for NOAA. In order to assure the success of the JPSS development, GSFC requires support from staff from the aerospace corporation who had previously worked on NPOESS as well as specialized engineering support services particularly in the area of optical focal plane developments in support of instrument development/testing and evaluation activities. The contractor shall provide electrical systems engineering support for JPSS. This support shall include, but not be limited to, developing JPSS program and mission specifications, revising and/or developing JPSS interface documents, conducting trade studies in support of JPSS architecture definition and evolution, managing mission- and observatory-level technical budgets, monitoring spacecraft contractor in design and procurement activities, participating in spacecraft progress meetings; design reviews; test readiness reviews; anomaly boards; parts/material boards; etc., and assisting in problem resolution the contractor shall provide instrument systems engineering services to JPSS. These services shall include, but not be limited to, supporting NPOESS to JPSS instrument transition by preparing technical documentation for instrument contracts, coordinating instrument requirements with mission- and observatory-level requirements, evaluating instrument compliance with NASA technical standards, conducting trade studies in support of instrument accommodation, supporting the instrument systems engineering staff, managing instrument risk processes, assisting with configuration change process for instruments, and participating in instrument design reviews; test readiness reviews; etc. The contractor shall provide engineering services to oversee the JPSS instrument development. These services shall include, but not be limited to, supporting NPOESS to JPSS instrument transition by preparing technical documentation for instrument contracts, coordinating instrument requirements with mission- and observatory-level requirements, monitoring the omps and cris contractor in execution of instrument build and test, participating in instrument progress meetings; design reviews; test readiness reviews; anomaly boards; parts/material boards; etc., reviewing plans and procedures, assisting in problem resolution, and reviewing test data for specification compliance.
