About this file

This is a Question and Answer document for a federal contract solicitation. It clarifies a compliance requirement in the Request for Proposal (RFP) 80GSFC26R0028 for the Sounder for Microwave-Based Applications (SMBA) project issued by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's Goddard Space Flight Center (NASA GSFC).

The Q&A addresses Section L, Mission Suitability requirements, subsection A.2, which requires offerors to provide an assessment of their proposed end-to-end SMBA instrument's compliance with requirements listed in the Performance Requirements Document (PRD). The government confirms that detailed system budgets and analysis with margins and contingency identified separately for all design elements spanning beginning-of-life through end-of-life timeframes are considered part of the PRD Requirements Compliance Matrix and are therefore exempt from the RFP's page count limitations specified in the table on page L-10 of the solicitation.
