Reference Document Section Question / Comment NASA Response

RFP_80KSC019R0002 6.2.11 Is the entire Subcontract Management Plan outside of the page count for Mission Suitability?

No, only the signed commitments within the Subcontract Management Plan are excluded from the page count.

RFP_80KSC019R0002 6.2.11(b) Can NASA amend this requirement to read “text within graphics and figures may use smaller font, but no less than 8‐ point, and text within tables may use smaller font, but no less than 9‐point”?

No, the requirement will remain as stated in provision 6.2.11(b).

RFP_80KSC019R0002 6.2.11 (Amend 01)

6.2.15(b)(2)(ii)(D) Is DRD GLS‐004 “S&MA Plans” excluded in its entirety from the proposal Volume II page count?

Yes, the RFP is amended to exclude DRD GLS‐004 in its entirety from the page count.

RFP_80KSC019R0002 Can NASA please update the GLS Cross‐Waiver of Liability clause to be consistent with the other Gateway programs?

A standard cross‐waiver of liability clause for use in all solicitations and contracts in support of the Gateway has not been finalized. Therefore, refer to section 2.2.11 for the clause applicable to the Gateway Logistics Services acquisition.

RFP_80KSC019R0002 6.2.15(a)(3)(ii) Will the Government consider an insurance policy covering the liablity of contract financing payments as an acceptable form of security?

No, an insurance policy is not an acceptable form of security listed in FAR Subpart 32.202‐4(b), (c), and (d) as referenced in 6.2.15(a)(3)(ii).

RFP_80KSC019R0002 6.2.15(c)1 Reference Section 6.2.15(c)1, the government states “Major subcontractors are defined as those companies expected to contribute $50M or more toward performance.” For evaluation purposes, is “toward performance” defined as “toward the total evaluated price”?

Yes, the RFP is amended to clarify that major subcontractors are defined as those companies expected to contribute $50M or more towards performance of the effort captured in the total evaluated price.

RFP_80KSC019R0002 6.2.13 Would the government please extend the Volume III, Past Performance Due Date to be commensurate with the Proposal Due Date (inclusive of future modifications)?

The Volume III, Past Performance, requested delivery date will not be changed from the date specified in provision 6.2.13. However, failure of the offeror to submit its past performance information by this requested date will not be a cause for rejection of the proposal nor will it be reflected in the Government's evaluation of the offeror's past performance so long as the past performance information is received by the proposal due date and time specified in 6.2.13 paragraph (a).

RFP_80KSC019R0002 SOW Section 5.0 Does the government anticipate issuing multiple task orders requiring fast transit capabilities over the ordering period, and if so, how frequently will this requirement be invoked.

At this time, the number of task orders requiring fast transit capabilities is not known.

RFP_80KSC019R0002 Page 96, Section

6.2.15(b)(2(ii)(B) Please confirm that this requirement should refer to clause

2.2.35 instead of 2.2.32.

The RFP has been amended to correct the referenced paragraph number for Associate Contractor Agreements from clause 2.2.32 to clause 2.2.35.

Gateway Logistics Services (GLS) ‐ 80KSC019R0002 ‐ Response to Questions (Amendment 02) Question

Reference Document Section Question / Comment NASA Response

11 DSG‐SPEC‐COMM‐005 L2‐Comm‐0249

Is the Gateway Program to Visiting Vehicle IRD available in draft form?

Yes, the draft Visiting Vehicle IRD was provided in the Bidder's Library as GP‐10031_Draft, Gateway to Visiting Vehicle IRD.

RFP_80KSC019R0002 NASA recently issued Northrop Grumman (NG) a sole source award for the Minimal Habitation Module (MHM) flight unit under NextSTEP‐2. The MHM Mission is equivalent to a Specialized Delivery Mission under GLS, and would likely have been awarded as such but for the earlier MHM need date at the Gateway. The above is a critical consideration because, as a part of GLS development, the Non‐Recurring Engineering (NRE) required to support Specialized Delivery Missions is to be accomplished during Initial Mission development. As a result, the Government’s sole source MHM award disproportionately reduces NG’s bid costs for the Initial Mission under GLS. This represents a competitive disadvantage to all other GLS offerors who do not possess a concurrent, non‐GLS vehicle to subsidize the same development that is required under GLS. Will the Government take this concurrency, and it’s investment across contracts for substantially the same solution, into account when deriving NG’s Total Evaluated Price?

No, the GLS solicitation is a stand‐alone acquisition.

RFP_80KSC019R0002 6.2.15(c)(1) Past Performance

Can the Consent Letters signed by the Major Subcontractors in the Past Performance Volume be removed from the page count?

No, the requirement will remain unchanged.
