Attachment J-3 Government Task Agreement Government Task Agreement Instructions and GTA Form
Government Task Agreement Instructions
Introduction While the majority of work to be completed under this task order is anticipated to be performed by the Vendor at the Vendor or its subcontractor facilities, the Vendor may propose to use resources that are on-site at a NASA facility as described in Request for Task Plan (RFTP), Section 5.14. In the event of a conflict between that clause and these instructions, the clause shall govern.
Instructions The purpose of this document, a Government Task Agreement (GTA), is to memorialize the Vendor’s requested approach to use the NASA on-site resources that are described in Section
5.14. The Vendor shall submit all GTAs with its proposal. GTAs shall have an agreed-upon cost provided to the Vendor by the NASA Performing Organization. The cost of all GTAs will be added to the Vendor’s firm fixed price for purposes of calculating a Total Evaluated Price for proposal evaluation purposes (reference the RFTP Pricing section). Vendors are advised that if awarded a task order for this effort, any GTA may be amended or revised during performance as agreed to by the NASA and the Vendor. During task order performance, the Parties may also agree to execute additional GTAs if they mutually determine such agreements are necessary to respond to new or changed circumstances that arise during performance. The Vendor shall be responsible for the cost of any such GTA, and the Parties shall effectuate the addition of new GTAs, and corresponding task order price adjustments, pursuant to FAR 52.212-4(c) – Changes as incorporated herein. To propose new GTAs during task order performance, the Vendor shall work with the Contracting Officer Representative (COR) and the Contracting Officer (CO).
The provision of any GTA shall be subject to a determination by the Government that any potential organizational conflicts of interest (OCIs) can be effectively avoided, negated, and/or adequately mitigated. If an OCI exists or the Government determines one exists, a mitigation approach must be provided to the Contracting Officer for determination and acceptance prior to executing the terms of any GTA.
For proposals that include hardware delivered to and/or tested at NASA centers, Vendors shall coordinate with the facility for any documentation requirements prior to delivery or testing.
Required documentation is dependent upon the hardware, identified hazards, and nature of the tests and facilities being exercised.
The Vendor shall indicate herein whether, as part of this GTA's performance, the Vendor is requesting to have any Vendor-provided “IT resources,” as that term is defined at NFS 1852.204- 76, interface with NASA IT resources. If so, the Vendor's IT resources shall comply with the requirements at NFS 1852.204-76 and FAR 52.204-21. In evaluating such GTA requests, NASA will perform an IT security assessment, in accordance with NIST 800-53 guidance, and identify any additional requirements in the final GTA before execution. The Vendor shall meet all the indicated requirements before its IT resources interface with NASA IT resources.
If the Vendor proposes to operate commercially owned Ground Support Equipment (GSE) at NASA owned facilities, the Vendor has the option of referencing NASA Standards, (NASA- STD-5005) to develop their GSE equipment:
• NASA-STD-5005 Standard for the Design and Fabrication of Ground Support Equipment
The Vendor shall use one GTA for each requested use of a facility, asset, or service except when the use of multiple on-site resources as part of a single overall endeavor is contemplated; for example, if a certain type of testing requires the use of three different NASA on-site resources, the Vendor may use one GTA for “testing” that indicates the use of three different on-site resources.
How to Inquire About NASA On-Site Resources To inquire about relevant, unique on-site resources at NASA Centers that may be available to Vendors, refer to Appendix J – GTA NASA Subject Matter Expert Collaboration Points of Contact List and Appendix K – GTA NASA Agency Facility Capabilities. To inquire about additional GTAs after task order award, the Vendor shall work with its Technical Manager.
Through a GTA, the Vendor shall only request NASA facilities, assets, services, or other specialized resources that are unique and not reasonably available commercially. The Government has the right to refuse any GTA request for any reason.
During any blackout period in which the Vendor is drafting a proposal, communications with the Government POCs must be limited to sharing information about the specific GTA requested. The Government POC communications with the Vendors will not include any assistance in preparing the Vendor’s proposal, advice, or opinions on the Vendor’s proposed design solution or approach for performing the work requested by the CLPS 2.0 solicitation or any information regarding the CLPS 2.0 competition or its technical requirements.
Data Rights All technical data, computer software, and computer software documentation (technical data (TD), computer software (CS), and computer software documentation (CSD)) developed pursuant to a GTA shall be delivered to NASA with Government Purpose Rights (“GPR”, as defined in contract clause FAR 52.227-14 – Rights in Data-General (May 2014) Alternate II (DEC 2007) and Alternate III (Dec 2007) as modified by NASA FAR Supplement 1852.227-14 (APR 2015). Assertions provided by the Vendor on its Assertion Notice that propose to deliver TD/CS/CSD developed pursuant to a GTA with less than GPR will be rejected by NASA and will not be incorporated into the task order at or after award.
Data Delivery At no additional cost to NASA, the Vendor shall deliver to NASA all technical data, computer software, and computer software documentation developed under work performed pursuant to a GTA no later than sixty (60) calendar days after performance of the GTA has concluded.
Cost Information The Appendix J – GTA NASA Subject Matter Expert Collaboration Points of Contact List and/or Appendix K – GTA NASA Agency Facility Capabilities POCs are responsible for providing the GTA Total Cost value in this template and reporting detailed cost information to https://standards.nasa.gov/standard/NASA/NASA-STD-5005?check_logged_in=1 https://standards.nasa.gov/standard/NASA/NASA-STD-5005?check_logged_in=1 the CLPS Project. The detailed cost information will delineate, per fiscal year: (1) FTE and (2) WYE annualized equivalent labor; (3) FTE and (4) WYE labor equivalent cost; (5) material costs; (6) other costs projected; and (7) total cost. The detailed cost table template enclosed is provided to the CLPS vendors to be used to coordinate and collect the applicable cost information from the NASA POCs and submitted with the CLPS vendor’s proposal.
Task Order Performance Upon task order award, all GTAs are subject to formal review and approval by the CLPS Project and Contracting Officer. Once funding has been secured and the Vendor has met all other requirements (e.g., standards applicable to GSE has been finalized and documented), the approved GTA(s) will become an attachment to the task order authorizing the Vendor to proceed with the GTA(s).

8. PREPARATION INFORMATION: This DRD describes requirements for reports the Contractor must submit when anomaly, mishap, or mission failure occurs.
DESCRIPTION/PURPOSE:
This document defines conditions that require a report, requirements for notification to NASA, and documents NASA’s requirements for the Contractor to investigate and establish corrective action plans that occur while performing the work required in support of this task order.
Anomaly, mishap reporting, investigation, and corrective action requirements occurring on third-party property will be handled in the same manner as those occurring on Contractor property.
DATA REQUIREMENTS:
DEFINITIONS:
Anomaly: is an unexpected or out-of-spec event that can either happen to the NASA property (i.e., a procedural deviation such as mishandling or exposure to an out-of-spec condition) or happen from the NASA property (i.e., a performance deviation such as a test failure or unexpected response to a command). An anomaly is also defined as an unexpected or out-of-spec event that occurs with the lander regardless of known or possible solutions or results. If an event is unexpected or out-of-spec, it is an anomaly regardless of known or possible results. An anomaly may or may not be associated with actual damage, the potential of latent damage, or the uncertainty of state. If the results of an event include damage or injury, it is a mishap regardless of whether the precipitating event was anomalous.
3/24/2026
Mishap: is any incident, which may occur prior to, during, and post launch, that results in at least one of the following:
a) Destruction of, or damage to, NASA property or NASA equipment (including flight and non- flight GSE), NASA-sponsored payloads, or any other property provided pursuant to this contract
b) Injury to NASA personnel
c) Injury to non-NASA personnel associated with NASA-sponsored payloads
d) Damage to a NASA facility,
e) Exposure to chemicals, gas, radiation, or electromagnetic fields involving NASA personnel which could result in fatality; lost-time occupational injury; or occupational disease; or
f) Exposure to chemicals, gas, radiation, or electromagnetic fields involving NASA property, or NASA equipment, which could result in hardware failure, hardware contamination, systems malfunction, or affect mission success.
Mission failure: is any incident or series of incidents that prevents or interferes with achieving a soft landing on the lunar surface or prevents the Contractor’s ability to provide power and communications to at least two NASA payloads.
High Visibility Events: Those particular mishaps, regardless of the amount of property damage or personnel injury, that NASA judges to possess a high degree of programmatic impact, or public, media, or political interest including, but not limited to, mishaps that impact flight hardware, flight software, or completion of critical mission milestones. The Contractor may notify NASA of a high visibility event or NASA may identify to the Contractor if an event arises to the level of a high visibility event and any applicable anomaly or mishap processes to follow.
The following addresses the specific requirements for anomaly, mishap, mission failure, high visibility events, investigation, reports, and corrective actions:
1. ANOMALY:
1.1 The Contractor shall notify the CLPS Contracting Officer Representative (COR) and Contracting Officer (CO) as soon as the safety of personnel and hardware permits but no later than 6 hours after any known anomalies associated with the mission including the lander or any of the NASA-sponsored payloads during integration testing, while on the pad, and throughout the mission. Anomalies occurring on third-party property will be handled in the same manner as those occurring on Contractor property.
1.2 Contractor Final Report. After the Contractor completes its investigation of the anomaly and, when appropriate, has developed a plan of corrective action, the Contractor shall deliver this completed report to NASA within 30 days of any anomaly.
2. MISHAPS:
1.3 The Contractor shall notify the CLPS CO and COR as soon as the safety of personnel and hardware permits but no later than 6 hours after the mishap occurred while on the Contractor, third-party property, or other non-NASA government property.
1.4 In the event needed, the primary purpose for an investigation and corrective action is to prevent similar occurrences and thus improve the safety of operations. The emphasis for an investigation should be on discovering root cause-effect relationships from which remedial and corrective actions can be derived. The intent is not to place blame, but to determine how processes and responsibilities may be clarified or improved to eliminate errors. Additional purposes for investigations are to determine the nature and extent of the events and its impact; to improve standards and risk posture; to satisfy the taxpayer’s right to know; and to resolve any questions associated. The investigation process will commence in two phases, an investigative phase and a corrective action phase. Each phase results in a deliverable product as described below.
1.5 An initial investigation by the Contractor is required for all mishaps reported to NASA. NASA reserves discretionary authority to investigate mishaps that involve NASA personnel or resources regardless of location.
The Contractor has the discretion to perform any collateral investigations.
However, investigations implemented by NASA will take priority with regard to access to evidence, data, and witnesses. The proceedings of NASA investigations will remain confidential. The Contractor will have an opportunity to comment on the investigation report in accordance with NASA protocols.
1.6 Contractor Final Report. After the Contractor completes its investigation of the mishap and, when appropriate, has developed a plan of corrective action, the Contractor shall deliver this completed report to NASA within 30 days of any mishap. The report shall describe the mishap, how it occurred, the Contractor’s plan to recover from the mishap to include a timeline for resolution, and how the Contractor will ensure the mishap will not reoccur. This plan will also include any verification activities identified by the Contractor to ensure that corrective actions to be implemented by NASA or a third party have been implemented or, if applicable, accomplished.
1.6.1 Corrective Action Plan (CAP) Process
A. The CAP shall include the following:
a. Corrective actions description and the estimated completion dates for each corrective action.
b. A matrix or other means of matching corrective actions to all findings and recommendations.
B. Corrective Action Plan Review and Approval
The CLPS Project Management shall review the CAP
b. Accept or reject the CAP.
c. Return a rejected CAP with comments to the contractor for revision and resubmission.
C. Contractor Corrective Action Plan Implementation
a. Implement the corrective actions.
b. Track the corrective action performance and completion and provide the CLPS Project Management with a status at intervals determined by the CLPS Project Management.
D. Corrective Action Plan Monitoring and Close Out
The Contractor shall:
a. Update the CLPS Project Management on the status of corrective action activities at least every 30 workdays until the CAP is closed.
b. Submit changes to the CAP after it has been approved (i.e., actions considered unwise or not feasible) to the CLPS Project Management for review and approval.
c. Once corrective actions are fulfilled, provide a Corrective Action Plan Closure Statement to the CLPS Project Management advising the CAP has been closed.
The CLPS Project Management shall:
a. Track corrective action activities to verify they are carried out according to plan and report non-compliance to the NASA Mission Directorate.
b. Verify corrective actions activities were implemented, completed, and closed.
c. Notify the NASA Mission Directorate that actions have been implemented, completed, and closed.
1.7 If a mishap occurs prior to launch, regardless of location, NASA will review the Contractor’s Final Report to ensure the corrective actions demonstrate an acceptable risk posture to NASA. If acceptable, then NASA will approve the Contractor to proceed with task order performance. As needed, Corrective Actions will be reviewed for applicability and implementation needed for any of the Contractor’s other CLPS task orders.
1.8 If a mishap occurs after launch, NASA will review the Contractor’s Final Report and any applicable Corrective Actions. Any Corrective Actions will be reviewed to ensure they demonstrate an acceptable risk posture to future NASA payloads and will be applied to the Contractor’s other CLPS task orders, as applicable.
3. MISSION FAILURE
3.1 In the event of a mission failure or an event that could lead to mission failure, the contractor shall notify the CO and COR as soon as the safety of personnel and hardware permits but no later than 6 hours after the contractor identifies the mission failure or event.
3.2 Following completion of all mission activities, the contractor shall convene a review board in accordance with contractor defined processes and within 30 days, or such other period as the parties agree to in writing, to investigate the mission failure. The contractor shall allow at least two NASA employees to participate in the investigation to:
a) observe,

*Shall be 100% if any dollars are subcontracted.
**Zero percent does not constitute a goal. Omit any categories where a goal is not established and provide rationale why.
***The small business subcategories do not necessarily add up to the percentage and dollar amount in the “Small Business Concerns” category above, since some small businesses do not fall into any of the subcategories below, while others will fall into more than one subcategory below. It is recommended that Offerors first complete Column B by entering the dollar amount the Offeror proposes to subcontract to each business category and subcategory. To complete Column A, divide the dollar amount in Column B by the total offered price of the proposal (that is, total contract value). In the example above, Column A for Veteran Owned Small Business = $2,500,000 divided by $100,000,000, or 2.5%. To complete column C, divide the corresponding amount in Column B by the amount in the “Total Dollars to be Subcontracted” cell in Column B.
