Description
The NASA Langley Research Center is planning to re-compete the Structures, Materials, Aerodynamics, Aerothermodynamics and Acoustics Research Technology (SMAAART) contracts, and is seeking broad community input for the follow-on procurement.It is anticipated the follow-on to SMAAART will cover the same broad range of work, in addition to new technical content. The objective of this RFI is to obtain feedback from industry participants to aid in the development of the Governments requirements and/or the sourcing strategy for the follow-on effort. The scope of the follow-on activity is anticipated to include the technical areas identified in Attachment 1. Respondents are invited to provide comments on the content of this announcement, including suggestions for improving the scope of the follow-on contract to ensure every effort is made to adequately address the technical areas. Specifically, the Government is requesting responses to the following questions: 1.Is there any technical language within the Technical Area descriptions that you find unclear? 2.Is the description under each Technical Area comprehensive and complete? 3.Are there technical applications or disciplines described in one Technical Area which you believe are better suited under another Technical Area? 4.Are there any emerging technologies that are related to a broad Technical Area, but do not appear to be adequately addressed within its description? 5.Is there specific technical language within a Technical Area which might: a.Preclude your company from proposing? b.Require significant/excessive subcontracting or partnering? 6.If your company had the ability to bid individual Technical Areas or groups of Technical Areas, would it increase the likelihood of your company submitting a proposal? What grouping of Technical Areas would best fit your companys capabilities? 7.Additional feedback regarding the technical areas described in Attachment 1. All responses should be submitted in PDF or Word format to Bobbi Forbes via electronic transmission (bobbi.forbes@nasa.gov) by March 26, 2014.
