About this file
This document contains the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) / Wallops Flight Facility (WFF) draft solicitation for the NASA Sounding Rocket Operations Contract (NSROC) IV. The principal purpose of the solicitation is to operate and maintain government-owned facilities located at NASA's Wallops Flight Facility in Wallops Island, Virginia and White Sands Missile Range in White Sands, New Mexico. The contractor will be responsible for conducting sounding rocket operations from multiple launch sites, including remote launch campaigns. The draft solicitation includes a representative task order, pricing structure, and evaluation criteria. Potential offerors are invited to review and provide comments on all aspects of the draft solicitation by June 14, 2021 to inform the final solicitation. Comments may address requirements, schedules, proposal instructions, perceived risks, unnecessary requirements, the representative task order, pricing clarity, and evaluation criteria. The agency will consider all comments in finalizing the solicitation and may provide responses to facilitate understanding.
