Analysis of data will be performed for the Astro-H Mission for the X-ray astronomy observatory that will be placed into orbit in early 2016. NASA/GSFC intends to acquire these services from Eureka Scientific. It is our understanding that Eureka Scientific is the only vendor that can provide these services because this is a unique combination of expertise for the X-ray astrophysics.

The evaluation factors listed in this solicitation do not necessarily indicate their order of importance and subfactors, if any, may not be indicated. A competitive range determination may not be made. Award without discussions may be made. Negotiations may be held with one or more offerors but not necessarily with all offerors in the competitive range if one is established. Comparative evaluations of offers may be made.
