Facilities and Real Estate Division Support Services Statement of Work

1. BACKGROUND

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Headquarters Office of Strategic Infrastructure (OSI), Facilities and Real Estate Division (FRED) provides agency wide functional leadership and management in the areas of physical and intellectual infrastructure, planning & real property management.

These traditional FRED functions, as generally practiced in the federal government, are executed by FRED at NASA Headquarters by:

a. Providing policy and oversight of NASA’s Centers to implement and operate cost-effective repair, and planning & real property management programs;

b. Advocating the appropriate resources to enable facilities to support on-going programs and to protect the agency’s asset base;

c. Facilitating improved real property management by leveraging best practices and breakthrough improvements across the agency while observing industry practices;

d. Optimizing Agency real property holdings by identifying opportunities to reduce or consolidate unnecessary or underutilized real property, increase productive use of underutilized property, and sustain mission essential property; and

e. Executing legally sufficient, policy-compliant real estate instruments to support Agency mission and facilitate appropriate commercial access to space.

NASA owns and/or manages approximately 2,400 buildings and 2,400 other structures totaling over 43 million square feet and approximately 365,000 acres of land. Other structures may include, as applicable, infrastructure and specialized assets such as launch pads, runways, utility systems, roads, bridges, antenna, laboratories, wind tunnels, communication structures, and other improvements that support NASA missions. In addition to NASA’s Centers and major Component Installations (see the list on the following page), NASA also manages dozens of remote sites on all seven continents. An example of a remote site is the Cielo Sounding Rocket Launch Site located in Peru

FRED’s real property management objectives are to: (1) reduce unnecessary or excess real property and associated costs where consistent with mission requirements; (2) increase productive use of underutilized real property and leverage its value thru appropriate transactions, partnerships, leasing and other authorized mechanisms; (3) sustain mission-essential real property through effective stewardship, planning, accountability and life-cycle management. These objectives are implemented through individual requirements and orders; the Government does not establish a single numeric reduction or utilization trade applicable to all NASA locations.

NASA is recognized as a world leader in aeronautical and aerospace research and, therefore, its real property and specialized infrastructure may be attractive to both the private and public sectors for partnering and use. NASA has authority under Title 51 of the United States Code for the acquisition, management, Enhanced Use Leasing, and divestment of real property under its control. NASA may also use other authorities and special legislation to leverage the value of underutilized or excess land and facilities.

NASA is seeking creative and mission supportive alternatives to owning facilities where appropriate to meet changing real property requirements. NASA has experienced increased volume and complexity of real estate actions, particularly actions involving out-grant leasing.

NASA therefore requires access to qualified real estate professionals capable of applying innovative, commercially informed approaches while remaining consistent with Federal and NASA requirements.

FRED will rely upon the Contractor to conduct specialized real property and real estate studies, analyses, transactions, and related technical services. Work may involve NASA Centers, Component Installations and remote sites domestically or internationally. The Contractor shall account for the unique mission, security, operational, environmental, legal, market, and infrastructure considerations associated with NASA property. For international work, the Contractor shall support NASA in evaluating applicable host-country real estate practices and requirements; as well as applicable U.S. Federal and NASA authorities, treaties, agreements, and other requirements identified by the Government. The Government will identify site specific requirements in the applicable task order.

Applicable Agency real property regulations, policies, procedures, guides, and other Government documents will be identified or made available to the Contractor as appropriate.

Agency personnel will be available as needed to provide Government direction, clarify requirements, and answer programmatic or technical questions.

2. SCOPE

The Contractor shall provide professional real estate consulting, technical, analytical transactions, and advisory services to FRED and the NASA Centers in support of NASA’s real property portfolio, real property infrastructure, business improvement initiatives f, and real estate actions of varying complexity . Services shall include the analysis, planning, development, execution, documentation, and/or real estate requirements identified in individual orders.

The Contractor shall provide a wide range of technical, business, market, analytical and strategic real estate consulting services for NASA real property actions and initiatives, including but not limited to:

• Sale,trade, transfer, acquisition, and other disposition or coveyance activities;

• Out-granting (out-leasing) and in-granting (in-leasing) of NASA real property;

• Enchanced Use Leasing and other authorized real property utilization strategies;

• Public-private partnerships and infrastructure investment analyses;

• Real estate market research , feasability studies, valuation, appraisal, brokerage, and transaction support;

• Title research, surveys, legal descriptions, mapping, and other due dilligence support; and

• Support for uniquite or highly technical NASA assests for which conventional commerical markets may not exist.

Services may be performed for NASA Headquarters, NASA Centers, Component Installations, or other NASA locations, including remote and international sites, as identified in orders. Major NASA locations include NASA Headquarters, Washington, D.C.; Ames Research Center; Armstrong Flight Research Center; Glenn Research Center;

Goddard Space Flight Center; Jet Propulsion Laboratory; Johnson Space Center; Kennedy Space Center; Langley Research Center; Marshall Space Flight Center; Stennis Space Center; Wallops Flight Facility; White Sands Test Facility; and Michoud Facility. NASA may require services at additional domestic or international locations on an as-needed basis.

Tasks may require travel for on-site work. Travel requirements will be identified at the task-order level, and authorized travel shall be performed consistently with applicable Federal Travel Regulations and the terms of the contract and task order.

The Government anticipates a mix of recurring and non-recurring requirements. Workload may vary substantially by transaction type, complexity, location, and mission need. Broker services are currently anticipated to be required approximately one to two times per year, while other services may occur more or less frequently. Requirements may be issued throughout the year, and periods of increased activity may result in multiple orders being active or initiated at the same time. The Government may provide historical workload information and representative task-order examples with the solicitation or at the task-order level, as appropriate, to assist offerors in understanding the anticipated nature and range of work.

The Government generally anticipates issuing orders for distinct requirements; however, the Government reserves the right to combine related requirements into a single task order when doing so is in the Government’s best interest. Similarly, the Government may issue multiple orders concurrently. The Contractor shall maintain sufficient staffing, expertise, and management capability to perform multiple and simultaneous orders without degradation of quality or schedule.

Each Task will establish the specific requirement, applicable performance standards, deliverables, schedule, place of performance, level of effort of other ordering information, and Government-furnished information needed for that requirement. The Contractor shall apply applicable industry best practices and shall tailor its approach to the specific real estate requirement.

2.1 Representative Task Order Types
