About this file

This document contains a federal contract opportunity and related attachment. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration Goddard Space Center plans to issue a request for proposal for a definition-phase study of an Ocean Color Observations instrument to fly on the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's planned GeoXO series of geostationary satellites, with the first launch in 2032. The anticipated final RFP will be released in August 2021, with up to two fixed price contracts to be awarded, each approximately $5 million for a 20-month study period. The attachment describes how offerors may propose additional technology development or risk mitigation efforts for evaluation, defining the activities and any associated products or reports to be delivered under a fixed price. Proposed efforts would aim to advance technology readiness, demonstrate innovative methods, or address engineering challenges.

CONTRACT TBD

ATTACHMENT F

CONTRACTOR-PROPOSED

TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT AND RISK MITIGATION EFFORTS

Pursuant to section L.11(c)A.5, GSFC 52.215-210 Mission Suitability Volume Instructions

(Competitive). (Nov 2017), Mission Suitability Instructions, any Technology Development and/or Risk Mitigation Efforts proposed under Statement of Work 2.3 and 2.4 shall be documented in Attachment F of the model contract. The technology development effort is intended to mitigate schedule risk associated with low TRL items and High Risks activities.

Technology Development or Risk Mitigation Efforts are not necessarily required under the contract and will not be construed as a weakness if not proposed. However, the Offeror may only receive credit in the mission suitability evaluation for the proposed efforts to the extent of its description in Attachment F, and the associated benefits explained in its Mission Suitability

Volume.

The contractor shall clearly define what activities are to be accomplished as well as any

Products, analyses, tests or reports that will be produced.

Samples

1. Efforts needed to help advance the technology readiness of the concept developed in the study

2. Proof of concept for an innovative test method

3. Building a prototype to address a challenging engineering problem

4. Development of a new modeling approach that supports assessing or reducing a risk posture

5. Etc.
