About this opportunity
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has issued a Request for Information (RFI) seeking expressions of interest for available commercial office space within the District of Columbia to potentially serve as its new headquarters facility. The RFI targets real estate developers, local and state jurisdictions, academic institutions, federal agencies, and commercial aerospace partners interested in selling office properties. NASA is exploring multiple options for its headquarters, including a new lease, building purchase, federal collocation, or a lease with a potential purchase option. The agency requires a facility that can accommodate approximately 2,600 personnel and provides between 375,000 to 525,000 usable square feet of office space. This market research aims to determine the availability and capability of commercial properties that can meet NASA's specific operational and security requirements.
The primary objective of this RFI is to gather comprehensive information about potential office spaces that can serve NASA's headquarters needs. Contractors must submit detailed responses by January 15, 2025, including proof of ownership, legal descriptions, environmental assessments, and demonstrations of financial viability. The facility must meet stringent requirements, including Federal Protective Service Facility Security Level 4 standards, accessibility to Metro transit, parking for 300-400 vehicles, and features like SCIF facilities and STEM educational outreach spaces. Eligible respondents must provide complete property details in PDF format and disclose any foreign ownership. NASA explicitly notes that this RFI is for planning purposes only and does not guarantee a subsequent solicitation or contract award. Certain entities, such as those debarred from federal contracts or identified as security risks, are ineligible to participate in this opportunity.
