INFORMATION SYSTEMS (JUN 2016)

(a) Definitions. As used in this clause–

Covered contractor information system means an information system that is owned or operated by a contractor that processes, stores, or transmits Federal contract information.

Federal contract information means information, not intended for public release, that is provided by or generated for the Government under a contract to develop or deliver a product or service to the Government, but not including information provided by the Government to the public (such as on public websites) or simple transactional information, such as necessary to process payments.

Information means any communication or representation of knowledge such as facts, data, or opinions, in any medium or form, including textual, numerical, graphic, cartographic, narrative, or audiovisual (Committee on National Security Systems Instruction (CNSSI) 4009).

Information system means a discrete set of information resources organized for the collection, processing, maintenance, use, sharing, dissemination, or disposition of information (44 U.S.C.

3502).

Safeguarding means measures or controls that are prescribed to protect information systems.

(b)Safeguarding requirements and procedures.

(1)The Contractor shall apply the following basic safeguarding requirements and procedures to protect covered contractor information systems. Requirements and procedures for basic safeguarding of covered contractor information systems shall include, at a minimum, the following security controls:

(i)Limit information system access to authorized users, processes acting on behalf of authorized users, or devices (including other information systems).

(ii)Limit information system access to the types of transactions and functions that authorized users are permitted to execute.

(iii)Verify and control/limit connections to and use of external information systems.

(iv)Control information posted or processed on publicly accessible information systems.

(vi)Authenticate (or verify) the identities of those users, processes, or devices, as a prerequisite to allowing access to organizational information systems.

(vii)Sanitize or destroy information system media containing Federal Contract Information before disposal or release for reuse.

(viii)Limit physical access to organizational information systems, equipment, and the respective operating environments to authorized individuals.

(ix)Escort visitors and monitor visitor activity; maintain audit logs of physical access; and control and manage physical access devices.

(x)Monitor, control, and protect organizational communications (i.e., information transmitted or received by organizational information systems) at the external boundaries and key internal boundaries of the information systems.

(xi)Implement subnetworks for publicly accessible system components that are physically or logically separated from internal networks.

(xii)Identify, report, and correct information and information system flaws in a timely manner.

(xiii)Provide protection from malicious code at appropriate locations within organizational information systems.

(xiv)Update malicious code protection mechanisms when new releases are available.

(xv)Perform periodic scans of the information system and real-time scans of files from external sources as files are downloaded, opened, or executed.

(2) Other requirements. This clause does not relieve the Contractor of any other specific safeguarding requirements specified by Federal agencies and departments relating to covered contractor information systems generally or other Federal safeguarding requirements for controlled unclassified information (CUI) as established by Executive Order 13556.

(c) Subcontracts. The Contractor shall include the substance of this clause, including this paragraph (c), in subcontracts under this contract (including subcontracts for the acquisition of commercial items, other than commercially available off-the-shelf items), in which the subcontractor may have Federal contract information residing in or transiting through its information system.

2.5 NFS 1852.225-70 - EXPORT LICENSES (FEB 2000)

(a) The Contractor shall comply with all U.S. export control laws and regulations, including the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR), 22 CFR Parts 120 through 130, and the Export Administration Regulations (EAR), 15 CFR Parts 730 through 799, in the performance of this contract. In the absence of available license exemptions/exceptions, the Contractor shall be responsible for obtaining the appropriate licenses or other approvals, if required, for exports of hardware, technical data, and software, or for the provision of technical assistance.

(b) The Contractor shall be responsible for obtaining export licenses, if required, before utilizing foreign persons in the performance of this contract, including instances where the work is to be performed on-site at a NASA installation, where the foreign person will have access to export-controlled technical data or software.

(c) The Contractor shall be responsible for all regulatory record keeping requirements associated with the use of licenses and license exemptions/exceptions.

(d) The Contractor shall be responsible for ensuring that the provisions of this clause apply to its subcontractors.

2.6 MILESTONE PAYMENTS, EVENTS AND COMPLETION CRITERIA

The commercial interim payments will be paid in accordance with the payment schedule shown in Table 2, Launch Service Milestone Payment Schedule.

(b) Payment schedules may be deferred or canceled by the Government if the Contractor fails to make substantial progress in accomplishing the milestone events. Payments falling due in the first quarter of each fiscal year (October - December) shall be paid promptly to the maximum extent practicable, but shall not be considered late until January 31st of the following calendar year. In the event the Contractor completes a milestone ahead of the milestone completion date, the Contractor may submit a proper invoice and the Government will consider on a case-by-case basis, the early payment of the milestone.

(c) The Contracting Officer will unilaterally determine the Contractor’s accomplishment and successful completion of each milestone event. The Contracting Officer’s determination of milestone event completion will include, but is not limited to, the accomplishment criteria listed for the major milestone events set forth in the SOW.

2.7 HOLD HARMLESS CLAUSE

The Contractor shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless NASA, its officers, officials, employees and volunteers from any and all claims, injuries, damages, losses or suits including attorney fees and costs, arising from or in connection with the performance of this contract, except for injuries and damages caused by the sole or willful negligence of NASA. NASA does not provide any warranty or assume any liability for any damages either direct or consequential arising from the Contractor’s equipment, installation, performance, or any other actions in fulfillment of any future contract award.

2.8 DOMESTIC SOURCE CRITERIA

(a) In addition to the certification regarding United States commercial provider of space transportation services (Public Law 105-303, Title II, Section 201), the Contractor shall continue to comply with domestic source criteria. Failure to comply with the criteria may be grounds for “Termination for Cause” in accordance with FAR 52.212-4(m).

(b) Participation in this procurement is restricted to Contractors from the United States launch vehicle/services industry. “United States industry” means any corporation, partnership, joint venture, association, or other entity which is organized or existing under the laws of the United States or any State, and whose controlling interest is held by United States citizens.

“Launch services” means all services required in the performance of this contract, excluding those necessary to produce or manufacture launch vehicles, its components and other equipment and facilities required in the performance of the contract. “Controlling interest” means ownership of an amount of equity in such entity sufficient to direct management or to void transactions entered into by management. Ownership of at least fifty-one (51) percent of the equity creates a rebuttable presumption that such interest is controlling.

(c) The Contractor shall provide in the performance of this contract launch vehicles that are domestic end products. The launch vehicle shall be a domestic end product only if the cost of its components, mined, produced or manufactured in the United States exceeds 50 percent of the cost of all its components. The cost of each component includes transportation costs to the place of incorporation into the launch vehicle and any applicable duty (whether or not a duty-free entry certificate is issued). “Components,” as used in this contract clause, means those materials and supplies directly incorporated into the end product.

(d) The Contractor shall provide, in the performance of this contract, domestic launch services.

Launch services shall be considered to be domestic if the cost for launch services performed by United States industry sources exceeds 50 percent of the cost of the total required launch services.

2.9 LICENSES, PERMITS, AND INSURANCE FOR A LAUNCH SERVICE

OPERATOR

(a) The Contractor shall obtain and maintain the necessary licenses, permits and clearances that may be required by the Department of Transportation, Department of Commerce, Department of Defense, NASA, or other Governmental agencies in order to provide launch services under this contract. A Federal Aviation Administration commercial launch license is required under this contract. All costs and fees associated with obtaining licenses, permits and clearances shall be included in the standard launch service price. Approvals required by the payload are the responsibility of NASA.

(b) In accordance with 51 U.S.C. § 50914, the Contractor shall obtain liability insurance or demonstrate financial responsibility in amounts to compensate for the maximum probable loss from claims by: (1) a third party for death, bodily injury, or property damage or loss arising in connection with the covered launch activities under this contract; and (2) the United States Government against a person for damage or loss to Government property arising in connection with the covered launch activities under this contract. The Contractor shall provide NASA a copy of the Maximum Probable Loss (MPL) determination and certificate of such insurance once it has been obtained.

(c) The foregoing insurance requirement does not preclude the Contractor from acquiring or continuing in effect any additional insurance to protect the interests of the Contractor or its Related Parties, such as Commercial General Liability coverage.

2.10 COMPLIANCE WITH SAFETY AND OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH

STANDARDS

The Contractor shall comply with all Federal, State, and local laws, and customary commercial practice applicable to safety and occupational health and with the safety and occupational health standards, specifications, reporting requirements, and any other relevant requirements of this contract. The Contractor shall comply with all applicable Department of Transportation and Federal Aviation Administration regulations and policies necessary to obtain a commercial launch license. The Contractor shall comply with the applicable launch site or launch range safety requirements. The contractor shall submit all final approved documentation required to maintain compliances under this Clause within thirty (30) days of approval from the relevant authority or within thirty (30) days of contract award for documentation that has been finalized and approved prior to executing this Contract. NASA does not have approval authority over these documents under this Clause, unless launching from a NASA range.
