Description

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA)/John F. Kennedy Space Center (KSC) plans to issue a Request for Proposal (RFP) for CubeSat dispenser hardware and integration services. A CubeSat is a type of miniaturized space research satellite that typically uses commercial, off-the-shelf electronic components. In support of this effort, Offerors must be capable of performing the standard service, which includes engineering development support, dispenser carrier hardware, CubeSat to dispenser and dispenser to launch vehicle (LV) integration, and system testing. Additionally, Offerors may be required to perform non-standard services (such as de-integration and commercial flight services), mission unique services, and special task assignments related to the hardware and integration services. Offerors need not be capable of performing commercial flight services to be eligible for an IDIQ contract award under this acquisition.

NASA intends to make one or more award(s) of the Firm-Fixed-Price (FFP) Indefinite-Delivery/Indefinite-Quantity (IDIQ) type contract. The contract ordering period will be Calendar Years (CY) 2013 through 2016. The minimum order value is $10,000 with a maximum order value of $9,500,000.

This requirement is a 100% Small Business Set-Aside.

This procurement will be conducted under FAR Part 12, Acquisition of Commercial Items, in conjunction with FAR Part 15, Contracting by Negotiation.
