About this file
This document is a NASA notification letter regarding a Step-1 proposal submission for the Dynamic Power Convertors for Radioisotope Power Systems (DPC4RPS) program element under the Research Opportunities in Space Science (ROSES-2016 C.22) solicitation. The letter informs the principal investigator (PI) that their Step-1 proposal, one of 17 received, was not found to be within the scope of DPC4RPS and discourages submission of a Step-2 proposal. Despite this recommendation, the organization may still proceed with a full Step-2 proposal, which must address the same broad scientific goals, maintain the same PI, and follow specific submission guidelines through the NSPIRES system. Proposers wanting to add funded investigators must notify the program officer at least two weeks before the Step-2 deadline, with additions within two weeks requiring explicit permission.

Re: Step 1 proposal entitled, «Title» —«Response_number»
Dear «PI_Salutation» «PI_Last_name»:
Thank you for submitting your Step-1 proposal to the program element Dynamic Power
Convertors for Radioisotope Power Systems (DPC4RPS) in response to NNH16ZDA001N, Research Opportunities in Space Science (ROSES-2016 C.22). We regret to write that your proposal, one of 17 Step-1 proposals received by DPC4RPS this year, was not found to be within the scope of DPC4RPS, so we discourage you from submitting a Step-2 proposal. Please see below for the reason why Step-1 proposals were discouraged. Despite our carefully considered advice, your organization may still proceed with the submission of a full Step-2 proposal. See the solicitation for proposal guidelines.
Step 2-proposals are created in NSPIRES by clicking the "Create Proposal" button, and then selecting "Prior phase proposal" as the proposal source. You then build the full proposal from the existing Step-1 proposal listed in NSPIRES. Do not attempt to create the Step-2 proposal using a solicitation or NOI as the source. Feel free to call the NSPIRES help desk at (202) 479-9376, or by email at nspires-help@nasaprs.com, if you need assistance with this process. You may also refer to the Step-2 instructions given in on the NSPIRES web page of the Dynamic Power
Convertors for Radioisotope Power Systems program element.
Full (Step-2) proposals must address the same broad scientific goals proposed in the Step-1 proposal. The PI cannot be changed and proposers who want to add funded investigators between the Step-1 and Step-2 proposals must inform Name of program officer at
First.last@nasa.gov at least two weeks in advance of the Step-2 due date. Additions of funded investigators within two weeks of the Step-2 deadline require explicit permission from the
NASA points of contact given above.
We urge all Step-2 proposers give special attention to XX here one adds text warning them about any common issue that was seen when reading the Step-1 proposals. XX All Step-2 proposals will be thoroughly evaluated on their relevance to the solicitation, as well as intrinsic merit and cost realism.
Step-2 proposals are due xx. Please be in touch with us if you have questions.
Sincerely, Name of Program Officer
