Single Manifest Payment Plan FA8811-19-R-0002

PRE-DECISIONAL

1. Basis of Payment The basis of payment for single manifest missions shall be the successful accomplishment of event milestones scheduled for a single manifest mission assigned throughout the period of performance of the contract. The milestones represent meaningful efforts or actions that are an integral and necessary part of performance. The basis for an event should be either specifically described events or a measurable criterion of performance. Included within this Payment Plan is what constitutes successful performance of each event. Once a single manifest mission is assigned, the Contractor shall fill in the payment amounts, which are listed here as a percentage of the total contract price for all applicable firm fixed price (FFP) Contract Line Item Numbers (CLINs) pertaining to the mission (CLINs YYX1, YYX2, and YYX7). NRO-only references appear in grey text.

1. milestone Success Criteria and Completion Evidence Each event milestone has associated measurable success criteria that serve to validate milestone accomplishment. All milestone success criteria must be met before the milestone payment will be authorized. When the Launch Vehicle Contractor (LVC) has successfully completed all applicable milestone success criteria, the LVC shall submit a Notice of Completion (NOC) for the milestone to the Procurement Contraction Officer (PCO). The NOC shall include supporting documentation to substantiate meeting the milestone success criteria as provided in the completion evidence defined herein.

1. Event Milestone Payments and Event Timing Completion of milestone and subsequent NOCs may be submitted non-successively (e.g., if milestone two is completed before milestone one, then the LVC may submit an NOC for milestone two before an NOC for milestone one). Additionally, the NOC may be for multiple milestones. In the event the LVC completes a milestone ahead of the milestone completion date, the LVC may include that milestone in the monthly NOC and the Government will consider, on a case-by-case basis, the early payment of the milestone.

The PCO will determine whether or not the LVC has successfully met each of the milestone success criteria based on inputs provided by the United States Government (USG) Team (for Air Force missions) and the Mission Team (for NRO missions).

For Air Force missions, the USG team consists of the Air Force Space and Missile Systems Center Launch Systems Enterprise Directorate (SMC/LE), and the Air Force Program Executive Officer for Space office personnel; and also includes The Aerospace Corporation, LE’s Systems Engineering and Integration (SE&I) Contractor, LE’s Systems Engineering and Technical Assistance (SETA) support Contractors, the NRO/Office of Space Launch (OSL) (as applicable), the SMC Independent Readiness Review Team, Defense Contract Management Agency, Defense Contract Management Agency, Defense Contract Audit Agency, 30th Space Wing (30 SW), 45th Space Wing (45 SW), and other organization as designated by the SMC/LE PCO.

For NRO missions, in addition to the USG Team listed above for Air Force Missions, the Mission Team consists of the OSL Mission Manager (OMM), the OSL Contracting Officer Technical Representative (COTR), and their support personnel (to include Government, Aerospace Corporation, and SETA personnel). At their discretion, the OMM and COTR may solicit inputs from SMC/LE to assist in their determination of the LVC’s satisfactory completion of the milestone success criteria. Written concurrence from both the OMM and COTR that the LVC has successfully met the milestone success criteria is required before the PCO will authorize payment of the milestone.

To the maximum extent possible within fifteen (15) business days after receipt of the LVC’s NOC, the PCO will provide written notification to the LVC specifying which milestones contained in the NOC are determined to be “met” (complete) and, if necessary, which are considered “not met” (incomplete). For milestones identified as incomplete, the PCO will: (1) specify in the notification, the issues(s) that led to the determination based upon the milestone success criteria and completion evidence provided herein, and (2) the corrective action(s) required to complete the milestone. The Government and LVC will ensure agreement and understanding of the corrective actions, and the LVC will make a good faith effort to quickly reconcile an incomplete milestones. When the LVC accomplishes the corrective actions, the LVC will submit an NOC addendum to the PCO for Government review. To the maximum extent possible within fifteen (15) business days after receipt of the LVC’s NOC addendum, the PCO will provide written notification to the LVC specifying whether the Government concurs that all corrective actions have been accomplished and the milestone has been “met” (completed).

For each milestone, the Estimated Completion Date is the estimated date that the LVC will complete the payment event and submit the associated NOC for payment of each milestone under this Plan. For each milestone, the value in the percentage “%” column of Table 1 indicates the percentage of the assigned mission value of all applicable FFP CLINs (CLINs YYX1, YYX2, and YYX7) that will be used to calculate the dollar amount to be paid to the LVC upon successful completion of the milestone. The Government reserves the right to withhold up to fifty percent (50%) of the total payment value for any unpaid milestone(s) in the event of a Government-approved Class 1 change required for the launch service that is not implemented or completed to meet the Government’s approval by the implementation deadlines specified in and in accordance with (IAW) Attachment 1 Performance Work Statement (PWS) section 3.2.4.3.

1. Event Milestone Schedule Criteria for payment of each event milestone appears in Table 1. In no event shall the LVC receive payments in excess of 90% of the total contract price until after acceptance of the launch service IAW Milestone 12 (Government Acceptance of Launch Service IAW contract clause Federal Acquisition Regulation [FAR] 52.212-04, Addendum to Contract Terms and Conditions – Commercial Items [January 2017]). Given that defects in service for the last Milestone 12, Acceptance of Launch Service, are not suitable for correction by re-performance, the PCO has determined that, pursuant to FAR 52.246-4(e), the appropriate relief for the Government in the event of Milestone 12 defect (e.g., mission failure) is to reduce the contract price by the amount of the full Milestone 10, Upper Stage Disposal, Final As-Built Configuration List (ABCL), and Final Fleet Insight ABCL: Milestone 11, Mission Orbital Parameter Accuracy Verification; and Milestone 12 payment, which appropriately reflects the reduced value of the services performed.

Milestone 10: Upper Stage Disposal; Final ABCL; Updated Fleet Insight ABCL Description:

1. Upper Stage Disposal. The LVC shall identify which upper stage disposal method was planned and flown (random atmospheric reentry, controlled atmospheric reentry, maneuvering to a storage orbit, direct retrieval) IAW CDRL A044. The LVC shall provide telemetry data confirming the depletion of upper stage propellant (by blowdown, depletion burn, or the release of compressed gases) IAW CDRL A044. The LVC shall provide the following information dependent upon which disposal method was flown:

a. Random atmospheric reentry: Value for risk of human casualty, state vector for end of mission upper stage disposal orbit, disposal orbit lifetime for upper stage based on as-flown end of mission, description of analysis that produced the upper stage disposal orbit lifetime value.

b. Controlled atmospheric reentry: Latitude and longitude of upper stage reentry impact location and comparison to Notice to Airmen and Mariners box.

c. Maneuvering to storage orbit: Orbital elements at end of mission for as flown upper stage.

d. Direct retrieval: Description of retrieval operation. Time after end of mission when upper stage will be removed.

2. Final ABCL. LVC’s final ABCL delivered, and the Government has approved IAW CDRL A034.

3. Updated Fleet Insight ABCL. LVC’s updated Fleet Insight ABCL delivered, and the Government has approved IAW CDRL A020.
