NASA Plan for Commercial LEO Development In the near term, NASA developed a five-point plan building on the work of the last two decades. This plan includes new policies, multiple solicitations, and new information that can be found on the Leo Economy website.
NASA established a commercial use and pricing policy for the International Space Station (ISS) that will enable companies to reduce uncertainty and build business plans as they seek to perform commercial activities, including marketing;
NASA has announced the intent to enable flight of private astronauts to the ISS with the first mission as early as 2020, including a solicitation as a mechanism to enable the assessment and approval of these missions;
NASA has initiated a process for developing commercial low-Earth orbit destinations, including the overall strategy, timeline, and solicitations for two paths including use of the ISS Node 2 Forward Port, and direct to a free-flyer destination;
NASA has laid out a plan to pursue opportunities to stimulate scalable and sustainable demand for LEO destinations including solicitations with targeted calls for in-space manufacturing and regenerative medicine flight demonstrations, as well as ideas to broadly stimulate demand growth;
NASA has updated a white paper quantifying the agency's long term needs in LEO.

Page | 44 Model Contract H Clauses H.10 1852.228-76 Cross-Waiver of Liability for Science or Space Exploration Activities unrelated to the International Space Station (Oct 2012) Note: If an offeror proposes interaction with the ISS during any phase of FF development or operations, the ISS Cross-Waiver of Liability documented in clause H.29 shall apply during those phases.
H.29 1852.228-76 Cross-Waiver of Liability for International Space Station Activities (OCT 2012) (Deviation) The Intergovernmental Agreement for the International Space Station (ISS) contains a cross-waiver of liability provision to encourage participation in the exploration, exploitation, and use of outer space through the ISS. The cross-waiver of liability in this clause is intended to be broadly construed to achieve this objective.
This clause invokes the ISS Cross Waiver of Liability and responsibility on the Contractor, the Contractor’s employees and all subs, including CS Crews and owners of CS Cargo or Payloads, to waive all claims against the US and its related entities for any damage arriving out of Protected Space Operations.
This cross-waiver of liability shall not be applicable to claims between the contractor and its related entities.
Requires the Contractor to maintain insurance or demonstrate financial capability to compensate for damages to US Government Property in amount up to $100 Million except for those areas called out in H.10 (d) H.17 Licenses, Permits, and other Authorizations for a Launch or Reentry Service Operator Makes the Contactor responsible for any and all local licenses, permits, clearances and authorizations associated with all launch vehicles associated with CD development including crew and cargo transportation.
Page | 45 Model Contract H Clauses H.19 Liability for Third Party Claims Requires the Contractor to acquire $500M in insurance to cover damages from 3rd party claims arriving from contractor related activities under this contract such as damage to any of the public’s property or injury\death to the public This is the same value that the FAA requires for a commercial licensed launch; we chose the amounts to align with the Commercial Space Launch Act (CSLA) requirements, which apply during the launch and re-entry phase of the contract, so the amounts will be consistent throughout the entire contract.
Page | 46 Model Contract H Clauses
H.22 Statement of Waiver of Rights to Inventions The Government has certain statutory rights in inventions conceived or first actually reduced to practice under a NASA contract. Pursuant to 51 U.S.C. 20135(g), NASA intends to waive all of the rights to inventions of the United States upon request under this contract to allow the contractor to own their inventions.
H.28 NASA Insight and Approval Defines the level, and areas, of insight NASA will be inserting and where NASA approval is applied in the execution of the contract. DRD-009, Insight Management Plan, details the specifics of how this clause is implemented.
Page | 47 Intellectual Property Rights I.91 52.227-14 Rights in Data - General, (Dec 2007) (Deviation) / Alternate I, (Dec 2007) (Deviation) / Alternate II, (Dec 2007) (Deviation) / Alternate III (Dec 2007) (Deviation) / As Modified Per 1852.227-14 Rights in Data - General Contracts awarded under this Appendix will use a different approach to Data Rights. The model contract includes a deviation to the 52.227-14 “Rights in Data - General” clause by which the Government will acquire limited rights, instead of unlimited rights, for data first produced under the contract, if developed partially or exclusively at private expense.
The Government only receives unlimited rights in data produced exclusively at Government expense. In event of Termination for Default, the Agency receives an additional right to manufacture for the Government’s benefit/use, but not unlimited rights.
H.26 Identification and Representation of Limited Rights Data and Restricted Computer Software (Pre-Award) In addition, the BAA Attachment B – Model Contract includes a Section H clause entitled “Identification and Representation of Limited Rights Data and Restricted Computer Software (Pre-Award),” which provides a “Data Rights Assertion Table” that allows Offerors to identify and represent pertinent data related to its specific limited data rights assertions.
H.27 Identification and Representation of Limited Rights Data and Restricted Computer Software (Post-Award) Used Post Award to make declaration on IP.
Proposal Review and Evaluation Criteria
Page | 49 Proposal Review Compliance Review A compliance review will be conducted as described in Appendix K Section 5.1, which includes a NASA review of the Executive Summary. If after reading Executive Summary it is determined that the proposal fails to meet goals and objectives in Section 1.3, it shall be deemed non-compliant and will be withdrawn from the review process.
Factor 1 – Business Relevance Evaluates proposal’s potential contribution to NASA’s mission and the objectives stated in Section 1.3: Objectives of Appendix K Factor 2 – Technical Merit Evaluates proposed Technical approach as described in Volume 2 and all attachments, particularly those addressing safety, habitability, and technical capabilities, for credibility, feasibility, clarity, comprehensiveness and risk and the potential contribution to NASA’s mission and the objectives stated in Section 1.3
Factor 3 – Price Evaluates the price using the data provided in Volume 3 for reasonableness Evaluation Criteria Factor 2 (Technical Merit, which includes Technical and Safety) is the most important Factor 1 (Business Relevance) is more important than Factor 3 (Price)
Communications/Fact Finding Per the NextSTEP-2 Omnibus BAA, Section 5.2 Evaluation, NASA may ask about a specific point or points in a proposal and conduct fact finding or due diligence activities. These activities may result in a request for a revised proposal. NASA has the ability to determine the appropriate method for any such communications, e.g., be in writing, virtual, or person.
A Blackout Notice will be issued for this BAA In accordance with NASA Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement 1815.201(f)(i), all communications with industry will be handled by the Contracting Officer
After selection, NASA will enter into negotiations with selected Offerors to finalize pricing and terms and conditions of the FFP IDIQ contract and task orders.
