About this file
This is a NASA IT Software and Hardware Rider that establishes mandatory requirements and conditions for software and hardware contractors under RFQ# 80TECH26QA062.
The rider imposes specific security, operational, and compliance requirements for software licensing and use. All audit and compliance notifications, including anti-piracy inquiries, must be submitted to the Contracting Officer and Agency Software Manager with a 30-day NASA response window. Automated reporting features in licensed software must use encryption through VPN or authorized secure ports and cannot include personally identifiable information about NASA users; NASA will block unsecured reporting traffic without reconfiguring security controls. License usage cannot be restricted by location, time zone, or geography within the US and US territories, and licenses may transfer between NASA and government sites as needed. Both government personnel and contractors may use licenses without additional licensing fees or requirements. Contractors must disclose any potential or intended use of Artificial Intelligence technologies prior to deployment, and obtain written contracting officer approval before implementing AI systems; this requirement extends to all subcontractors. Contractors must regularly identify, assess, monitor, and mitigate cybersecurity supply chain risks and maintain artifacts documenting compliance, providing them to the Government within 48 hours of request. Report requests for usage or entitlements require contracting officer approval prior to generation, and generated reports cannot be shared with third parties without NASA's prior written consent disclosing the third party's identity, information to be shared, justification, and data retention period. Additional terms and conditions added to quotes and purchases are non-binding, and NASA may share all prices, terms, and conditions for commercial and COTS software licenses with other Government entities, including posting to the Acquisition Gateway.

NASA IT Software and Hardware Rider
1. Audit and Compliance Review Notifications
All audit and compliance review notifications, to include anti-piracy violation inquiries, must be submitted via email to the Contracting Officer and Agency Software Manager. NASA will have 30 days to respond to all requests.
2. Use of Software with Automated Reporting Features
Automated reporting by a software firm with whom NASA maintains a licensing agreement must be encrypted through use of a VPN or over an authorized secure port to ensure information about NASA’s users and network is not exposed. Automated reporting from licensed software must not include personally identifiable information about NASA users. Automated reporting via unsecure means will not be allowed and such traffic will be blocked by NASA. NASA will not reconfigure security controls or firewall rules to accommodate automated software reporting. Automated report blocking by NASA will not constitute a violation of Publisher terms and all stated clauses to this effect are void.
3. Geographical Limitations
Use of the license(s) shall not be restricted to specific locations or time zones nor require additional license(s) for use within the US or US territory. License use may transfer to other NASA/government sites as required to perform required work. Publisher may request notification prior to license relocation.
4. License Usage
In performance of NASA business, license(s) may be used by Government personnel and Government contractors. No additional licensing requirements will be applied or enforced for contractor usage in performance of contracting duties or projects.
5. Contract Terms
Additional terms and conditions added to quotes and purchases will not be binding or act as a contract modification.
6. Reporting
Report requests for usage or entitlements must be submitted and approved by the contracting officer, prior to report generation. Reports will not be utilized to generate or compel compliance action(s).
Generated reports will not be shared with any 3rd party without prior consent by NASA. All requests to share data with 3rd parties must be submitted in writing and disclose identity of third party, all information to be shared, justification for sharing information, and data retention period. NASA may require additional information depending on security posture.

7. Use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) During Contract Performance
The contractor must disclose any potential or intended use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies, tools, or systems in the performance of this contract. If it is unknown at the time of contract award whether AI will be used, the contractor must provide written notice to the Government prior to the deployment of any AI systems during contract performance. If AI technologies are introduced after the commencement of contract performance, the contractor must notify the contracting officer in writing prior to the release or deployment of any AI component, capability, or system in the NASA environment.
The Government reserves the right to review, approve, or disapprove the proposed use of AI technology in the performance of this contract. The contractor must obtain written approval from the contracting officer before implementing AI systems.
If any subcontractor intends to use AI technologies in the performance of work under this contract, the contractor must ensure that similar notification and disclosure requirements apply to all subcontractors. The contractor is responsible for collecting the notification and disclosure requirements from subcontractors and submitting them to the Government.
8. Artifacts (received from Dept of State)
The Contractor must regularly identify, assess, monitor, and mitigate cybersecurity supply chain risks when providing covered articles or services to the Government. The Contractor shall maintain artifacts (i.e., any byproduct of hardware or software development that helps describe the architecture, design, and function of that hardware or software) that document its compliance with this paragraph and shall provide these artifacts to the Government within 48 hours of request, which may be redacted to remove sensitive proprietary information.
9. Price Sharing (received from OMB Memo M-16-12) NASA may share all prices, terms, and conditions for commercial and COTS software licenses with other Government entities, including posting said information to the Acquisition Gateway.
Terms or conditions that preclude NASA from sharing prices paid with other Federal agencies are prohibited.
10. License and Grants: At the time NASA places an order for PUBLISHER products, the contractor shall execute an order for a PUBLISHER EULA specifying the license grant details, including the license type, unit of measure, delivery location as requested by NASA, and the units ordered. The contractor acknowledges that NASA and its users shall not be bound by the terms of “Click Wrap” licenses or other related end user terms in the PUBLISHER EULA to the extent such “Click Wrap” licenses or end user terms conflict with the terms of this agreement.
