- Description
- The NASA Enterprise Applications Competency Center (NEACC), located at the George C. Marshall Space Flight Center (MSFC) in Huntsville, AL, is seeking capability statements from small business concerns interested in participating in the competition of the follow-on to the EAST contract. These capability statements will be used to assist the Agency in determining whether to conduct the follow-on competition on an unrestricted basis or as a small business set-aside. In the event the Agency determines not to set-aside this procurement for small business, information in the capability statements will be used to assist the Agency in determining appropriate small business subcontracting goals. This Sources Sought Synopsis is a market research tool only, and will be used to identify potential small business firms capable of providing the required services prior to determining the acquisition strategy and issuance of a Request for Proposal (RFP). Therefore, all interested small businesses are encouraged to respond. Respondents will not be individually notified of the results of the Agencys review of the information received. The NEACC operates and maintains a broad spectrum of NASA's enterprise applications, with an emphasis on fully integrating business process expertise with application and technical knowledge. A team of civil servants and support contractors sustain operations, implement new applications and capabilities, and provide business readiness support to stakeholders and end users both internal and external to NASA. The NEACC currently serves ten (10) Lines of Business, which are supported by over 100 enterprise applications and a multitude of integration services. The NEACC provides continuous operations that meet or exceed established service level measures. Specifically, the current Lines of Business include: Business Intelligence Enterprise Service Bus and the Center for Internal Mobile Applications (CIMA) Financial Human Capital & Workforce Identity, Credential & Access Management (ICAM) Logistics and Real Property Management NEACC Support Systems Office of Education Procurement Product Lifecycle Management Services under the current EAST contract, NNM11AA02C, are being provided by Science Applications International Corporation, Huntsville AL and will end on January 31, 2016. A copy of the current contract (redacted and conformed through MOD 61) is available for download on the NSSC FOIA Library Quick Link on the EAST 2 website (www.nssc.nasa.gov/east2). The maximum potential value of the current contract is $321.2 million; however, the value of the follow-on contract may change depending on the final Performance Work Statement. Though it is anticipated that the types of services to be acquired under the follow-on contract will be substantially the same as those currently being obtained under NASA Contract NNM11AA02C, additional scope for support of approximately 140 MSFC Center-specific applications is anticipated. Support for Center-specific applications at other NASA Field Centers across the country may also be required over the life of the contract. Therefore, NEACC services will increase in scale based on the final requirements. It should be highlighted that key procurement strategy decisions regarding contract type, period of performance, performance standards, pricing model, incentives, evaluation criteria, and schedule for the follow-on procurement have not been made by the Agency and interested firms are cautioned that they may differ from the terms and conditions of NASA Contract NNM11AA02C.
