(2) Invoices will be handled in accordance with the Prompt Payment Act ( 31 U.S.C.3903) and Office of Management and Budget (OMB) prompt payment regulations at 5 CFR Part 1315.
(h) Patent indemnity. The Contractor shall indemnify the Government and its officers, employees and agents against liability, including costs, for actual or alleged direct or contributory infringement of, or inducement to infringe, any United States or foreign patent, trademark or copyright, arising out of the performance of this contract, provided the Contractor is reasonably notified of such claims and proceedings.

The Contractor shall not be required to comply with the cost accounting standards or contract cost principles for this purpose. This paragraph does not give the Government any right to audit the Contractor’s records. The Contractor shall not be paid for any work performed or costs incurred which reasonably could have been avoided.

Contracting Officer, Code 173
I.16 SUPPLEMENTAL TASK ORDERING PROCEDURES
When the Government issues a request for a “task plan” to the Contractor in accordance with the Clause entitled “Task Ordering Procedure” of this contract, the Contractor shall prepare a detailed estimate of the costs required to perform the task order requirements. The Contractor shall use only those appropriate data rates, which may be less than but shall not exceed the rates found in Attachment D, to calculate the proposed price for all task orders issued in accordance with the “Task Ordering Procedure” clause of this contract.
One or more Task Orders may be issued during the ordering period of this contract. The Contracting Officer's decision to issue a Task Order to a particular contract holder shall be based on the criteria stated below. In accordance with FAR 16.505(b), the CO will give each contract holder a "fair opportunity to be considered" for each order exceeding the micro-purchase threshold unless of one of the conditions listed in FAR 16.505(b)(2) applies, or the contract holder has been disbarred or suspended from Government contracting.
Work under this IDIQ will be issued under the following Phases:
Evaluation Phase: An initial Sole Source Task Order Award will be issued to each new vendor to the CSDA Program (using the procedures specified in this section and in clause NFS 1852.216-80 TASK ORDERING PROCEDURE (OCT 1996)), for evaluation purposes to determine the utility of the data for ESD research and applied science applications in a cost-effective way, in accordance with the established standards/requirements. Upon completion of the evaluation, NASA will determine if subsequent purchases will be made under the Sustained Phase.
Contractors with previously NASA evaluated data via the CSDA Program will not be required to complete the evaluation phase and they will immediately be in the Sustained Phase at contract award. However, in case of significant change(s) between the evaluated and currently available data, NASA reserves the right to re-evaluate the currently available data (i.e., significant changes to the satellite(s), entirely new commercial product available, etc.).
Sustained Phase: Task Orders under this phase will be issued and competed amongst the vendors providing overlapping capabilities related to services, data coverage, and data products, using the procedures specified in this section and in clause NFS 1852.216-80 TASK ORDERING PROCEDURE (OCT 1996). NASA anticipates that task orders early in the contract period of performance may be awarded as sole source tasks to whichever vendor has the capability to perform the task requirements, until overlapping capabilities are developed by more than one vendor.
(a) Task Order Competition Procedures
Task Order Request for Task Plan (RFTP): When a Contractor submission of proposals is necessary, the Government will issue a RFTP.
(1) Each RFTP will include the following information:
a. Date of RFTP
b. Description of the Requirements, Task Order Statement of Work, applicable EULA, and other documentation upon which the Task Order fixed price is to be based
c. Delivery or performance date(s)
d. Due date for submission of task plan
e. Evaluation Criteria
(b) Task Order Evaluation/Selection Criteria
Upon receipt of the contractors’ proposed task plans, the government shall review each for completeness and acceptability. Each plan will be evaluated based on the specific evaluation criteria identified in the RFTP. For competitive task evaluations, the evaluation criteria may include the following factors:
(1) Technical approach and risk to meeting the specific task requirements
(2) Total proposed firm-fixed price for the task order
(3) Past Performance, as appropriate
The evaluation criteria may vary by RFTP, based on the specific task requirements. The proposed task order price shall always be considered in competitive task order evaluations.
Selection will be based on the best value to the government.
(c) Response to RFTPs
Contractors may "No Bid" any RFTP. When a contractor responds to a RFTP, it shall indicate that the task plan submitted in response to the RFTP is compliant with the contract terms, statement of work, and RFTP instructions.
A written proposal will always be required. The Contractor shall include in detail, all applicable catalog items and corresponding data rates required to perform the task order requirement. The Contractor shall use the applicable data rates specified in Attachment D, which are not to exceed rates. All task plans shall be submitted by the date and time specified in the RFTP, or it will be treated as late and will not be considered by the Government, unless the CO determines that it is in the Government's best interest to do so.
(d) Award of Task Order
Task Orders will be placed within the effective ordering period of this contract. Generally, task orders will be placed by original signed orders; however, orders may be placed by electronically.
Each of the contractors will be notified of the Government's selection decision for the Task Order awarded.
Each Task Order will include the following information:
(1) Date of the Task Order
(2) IDIQ contract number and Task Order number
(3) Description, Statement of Work
(4) Task Order Firm Fixed Price
(5) Task or performance date(s)
(6) Any specific information applicable to the task order, such as applicable EULAs
(e) 2003 U.S. Commercial Remote Sensing Policy
All work issued under this contract is subject to the 2003 U.S. Commercial Remote Sensing Policy (CRSP). The policy directs the U.S. Government to rely on commercial remote sensing capabilities to the maximum practical extent, and to develop a long-term, sustainable relationship with the U.S. commercial remote sensing space industry.
NASA is committed to relying to the maximum practical extent on U.S. commercial remote sensing capabilities, and is fully compliant with the 2003 U.S. CRSP. The fundamental goal of this policy is to advance and protect U.S. national security and foreign policy interests by maintaining the nation’s leadership in remote sensing space activities, and by sustaining and enhancing the U.S. remote sensing industry. Doing so will also foster economic growth, contribute to environmental stewardship, and enable scientific and technological excellence.
In instances where both domestic and foreign firms are determined to be technically acceptable for the requirements specified in a Task Order Request/SOW, the government will give preference to the domestic firm consistent with CRSP. If purchasing the services domestically would burden the government with an unreasonable price by being 10% or more over the price of the lowest priced technically acceptable foreign offer, then the Government may award to a foreign firm.
The Policy Fact Sheet, provided for informational purposes, is incorporated via contract Attachment I.
Each of the Contractors will be notified of NASA’s award of a Task Order. Except as listed in FAR 16.505(a)(10)(i), issuance or proposed issuance of a task order is not subject to protest. The debriefing requirements of FAR 15.5 are not applicable to orders issued under this contract that are less than $6 million, as specified in FAR 16.505(b)(6).
However, NASA intends to provide feedback to the other Contractors regarding any significant issues resulting in their non-selection.
