About this opportunity

Written by GovTribe AI · Dec 31, 2023

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration Glenn Research Center plans to issue Request for Proposals number NNC18ZCE01R to procure education support services for its Education Support Services 3 acquisition. The RFP will seek proposals to provide program management, technical support, education programs, internships, fellowships, and curriculum development aligned with NASA's strategic education goals. A virtual industry day will be held on May 30, 2018 for interested vendors to learn more about requirements, with proposals due in mid-2018 and contract award anticipated by late 2018.

The opportunity is set aside for total small business and has a NAICS code of 611710 for educational support services. The incumbent contractor, Paragon TEC, Inc., held the previous Education Support Services contract valued at $24 million from 2013-2018. The new contract is expected to have a one-year base period and four one-year options, and will likely be on a cost-reimbursement basis. Sample tasks included in the pre-solicitation notice involve management and implementation of internships, engineering design challenges, and program evaluations over the five-year period of performance.
