Greetings, If you are receiving this letter and attached survey, it is because an entity you (the “client”) have previously (or currently) done business with is interested in responding to a solicitation for the National Science Foundation’s (NSF) Antarctic Research Vessel (ARV) Integrator procurement. NSF’s overall goal is that this procurement will provide NSF with a world-class, ice-breaking research vessel.

NSF intends to determine the best-value source which can fulfill this requirement. NSF humbly requests your cooperation with the offering entity (“offeror”) for the purposes of providing a complete survey to NSF. Completion of these surveys are vital to NSF assessment of an offerors past performance, without which a full evaluation cannot be performed. Which individuals within your organization who complete this survey is at your organization’s discretion, so long as they are familiar with the activity covered by your survey response. It is preferred that the signatory is also a point of contact in case NSF has further questions regarding your submission.

NSF requests that the client completes this survey and submit directly back to the National Science Foundation, via email to arv.procurement@nsf.gov. Questions regarding this survey may be directed to the same address.

The government reserves the right to verify any and all information on this form.

NSF thanks you for your cooperation.
