10. 1852.242-72 Denied Access to NASA Facilities. (OCT 2015)

(a)(1) The performance of this contract requires contractor employees of the prime contractor or any subcontractor, affiliate, partner, joint venture, or team member with which the contractor is associated, including consultants engaged by any of these entities, to have access to, physical entry into, and to the extent authorized, mobility within, a NASA facility.

(2) NASA may close and or deny contractor access to a NASA facility for a portion of a business day or longer due to any one of the following events:

(i) Federal public holidays for federal employees in accordance with 5 U.S.C. 6103.

(ii) Fires, floods, earthquakes, unusually severe weather to include snow storms, tornadoes and hurricanes.

(iii) Occupational safety or health hazards.

(iv) Non-appropriation of funds by Congress.

(v) Any other reason.

(3) In such events, the contractor employees may be denied access to a NASA facility, in part or in whole, to perform work required by the contract. Contractor personnel already present at a NASA facility during such events may be required to leave the facility.

(b) In all instances where contractor employees are denied access or required to vacate a NASA facility, in part or in whole, the contractor shall be responsible to ensure contractor personnel working under the contract comply. If the circumstances permit, the contracting officer will provide direction to the contractor, which could include continuing on-site performance during the NASA facility closure period. In the absence of such direction, the contractor shall exercise sound judgment to minimize unnecessary contract costs and performance impacts by, for example, performing required work off-site if possible or reassigning personnel to other activities if appropriate.

(c) The contractor shall be responsible for monitoring the local radio, television stations, NASA Web sites, other communications channels, for example contracting officer notification, that the NASA facility is accessible. Once accessible the contractor shall resume contract performance as required by the contract.

(d) For the period that NASA facilities were not accessible to contractor employees, the contracting officer may—

(1) Adjust the contract performance or delivery schedule for a period equivalent to the period the NASA facility was not accessible;

(2) Forego the work;

(3) Reschedule the work by mutual agreement of the parties; or

(4) Consider properly documented requests for equitable adjustment, claim, or any other remedy pursuant to the terms and conditions of the contract.

(e) Notification procedures of a NASA facility closure, including contractor denial of access, as follows:

(1) The contractor shall be responsible for monitoring the local radio, television stations, NASA Web sites, other communications channels, for example contracting officer notification, for announcement of a NASA facility closure to include denial of access to the NASA facility. The contractor shall be responsible for notification of its employees of the NASA facility closure to include denial of access to the NASA facility. The dismissal of NASA employees in accordance with statute and regulations providing for such dismissals shall not, in itself, equate to a NASA facility closure in which contractor employees are denied access. Moreover, the leave status of NASA employees shall not be conveyed or imputed to contractor personnel. Accordingly, unless a NASA facility is closed and the contractor is denied access to the facility, the contractor shall continue performance in accordance with the contract.

(2) NASA’s Emergency Notification System (ENS). ENS is a NASA-wide Emergency Notification and Accountability System that provides NASA the ability to send messages, both Agency-related and/or Center-related, in the event of an emergency or emerging situation at a NASA facility. Notification is provided via multiple communication devices, e.g. Email, text, cellular, home / office numbers. The ENS provides the capability to respond to notifications and provide the safety status. Contractor employees may register for these notifications at the ENS Web site:

ATTACHMENT A

Statement of Work (SOW)

Real-Time Innovations (RTI) Data Distribution Services (DDS) Enterprise Services

Background

NASA/Kennedy Space Center (KSC) is developing a fully functional command and control system for ground system operations, launch vehicle and spacecraft checkout, and launch processing using the Spaceport Command and Control System (SCCS)/Launch Control System (LCS). Each iterative software delivery will build on the capability developed in previous releases. Several additional deliveries are required to enable launch vehicle and spacecraft command and telemetry as well as performance optimization. The general configuration of the launch site includes multiple Ground Support Equipment (GSE) subsystems, the Space Launch System (SLS) booster vehicle, the Interim Cryogenic Propulsion Stage (ICPS) upper stage, Exploration Upper Stage (EUS) and the Orion spacecraft. The SCCS/LCS developed at KSC is based on an architecture that leverages the functionality and maturity provided by Commercial Off the Shelf (COTS) products and applications which interface with other components in the system.

Requirements

The contractor shall provide engineering support as it relates to RTI products being used by SCCS/LCS. This shall include a Project Manager and Design Engineers. The Design Engineer lead should be a subject matter expert on the LCS usage of the RTI products and LCS software architecture. The contractor shall participate and contribute at selected meetings and reviews as necessary for the completion of tasks. Personnel providing on-site support shall complete the required badging protocols to obtain the appropriate clearances for working in restricted KSC locations. Personnel viewing NASA provided documents shall adhere to the Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) to view Sensitive But Unclassified (SBU) and Limited Rights material. Finally, personnel assigned to support the project must be certified to handle ITAR/EAR data.

Tasks

The contractor shall support engineering activities including but not limited to: system development support, tool configuration, troubleshooting and resolution of Non- Conformances (NC’s), product integration and test, compatibility testing with other COTS products and platforms, documentation updates, technical reviews, fact-findings, analyses, prototyping, and independent testing.

The contractor shall:

1. Work with NASA LCS Project Manager and Software Architecture teams to ensure project(s) functional and nonfunctional requirements, objectives, and milestones are met in regards to RTI product implementation.

2. Collaborate with development team(s) to ensure technology is leveraged in a manner that yields maximum value, and the contractor shall provide technical training to the development team if necessary

3. Help NASA understand and fully utilize ecosystem components and services in the context of the project’s architecture

4. Investigate, scope, and execute targeted proof of concepts (PoCs) to address specific project functional requirements

5. Provide vertical industry experience and expertise and apply that insight into assisting NASA’s design/development efforts

6. Support the development team by participating in Code Reviews, Performance Analysis, and Documenting findings and best-practice recommendations as a result of integration events

7. Leverage proven design approaches and communication patterns that have been extensively proven in a variety of customer applications

8. Respond promptly to emerging/new project requirements and challenges during the development, testing, and deployment phases of NASA’s project(s). In instances where NASA declares a critical issue which requires an immediate response, the contractor shall provide an email or phone call acknowledgement within four (4) hours during normal business hours (8 a.m. – 5 p.m. Eastern Standard Time (EST)). As an initial response, the contractor shall create a remote, emergency response team to analyze the issue, provide daily status (as required) and make recommendations. If the NASA project manager or the contractor project manager determine that the remote response is insufficient at any point the contractor will send an engineer on-site to further investigate. Depending on how severe the issue is will depend on whether the engineer(s) need to be on-site and if so, how quickly they need to be on-site.

9. Provide Project Management to work closely with NASA LCS PM, Software Architecture and Development teams and coordinate with the contractor Product Management (PM), Engineering and Support teams.

10. Provide both on-site and remote consulting to ensure project’s success, including on-site presence by rotating selected Professional Services Engineers during major integration events. The Government anticipates several major integration events within the next two years, each lasting approximately several weeks as indicated in the Period of Performance

11. Work remotely at the following RTI locations: California, Florida, Virginia, Georgia, North Carolina and Maryland as deemed necessary.

12. Submit a monthly report indicating what work was performed during that time period including any issues, concerns, and status on outstanding actions or issues.

NASA will:

Provide system-level architectural guidance, recommendations, and (when/if appropriate) work with our partners to develop and advance complete solutions
