About this opportunity
NASA/MSFC is seeking support services for its Gateway Program, including spacecraft development, requirements development, concept of operations development, payload integration, and operations integration through trade studies, design reviews, architecture guidelines development, modeling and simulation support, and payload integration management and process development. Interested parties must submit capabilities and qualifications by July 27, 2020 to Jesica Henderson to be evaluated for a potential competitive procurement. The agency intends to issue a follow-on sole source contract to Bailey Consulting Company but will consider competitive bids received in response to this pre-solicitation notice.
This is a HubZone small business set aside procurement. The potential follow-on contract is to Bailey Consulting Company under contract number 80NSSC19P1541 for an unknown value or period of performance. The NAICS code is 541715 and PSC code is R425. The agency will use responses received to determine whether to make this opportunity competitive rather than proceeding with the sole source award as currently intended.

Update #2 · Latest ·
NASA/MSFC has a requirement for support to the MSFC Human Exploration and Development Office’s Gateway Program in the areas of spacecraft vehicle research systems development, requirements and interface development, concept of operations development, payload integration, and operations integration. Support may include, but is not limited to, trade study performance, review and evaluation of design concepts and documents for pressurized habitable volumes and components (systems, stowage, payloads), generation of architecture guidelines and/or requirements, systems engineering product development, support to modeling and simulation, payload integration process development, and payload integration management as requested by the Government. Experience and knowledge of early studies for Space Station crew and payload accommodations, knowledge of payload operations via the development of system software to monitor system and payload instrumentation, as well as experience with payload integration management and associated stowage on Station can be leveraged for Gateway.
NASA/MSFC intends to issue a Hub Zone Small Business Set Aside sole source contract to acquire the services from Bailey Consulting Company. The statutory authority permitting other than full and open competition is 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1), as implemented by FAR 6.302-1 for acquisition of supplies or services from only one source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements.
The Government does not intend to acquire a commercial item using FAR Part 12.
Interested organizations may submit their capabilities and qualifications to perform the effort electronically via email to Jesica Henderson at Jesica.p.henderson@nasa.gov not later than 4:00pm Central Time Zone on July 27, 2020.
