- Description
- This synopsis provides notification that National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Headquarters, intends to proceed to Phase II on the solicitation, entitled "Advanced Oxygen Recovery for Spacecraft Life Support Systems," which was originally synopsized on April 9, 2014, and posted to NSPIRES as an Appendix (NNH14ZOA001N-14GCD-C2) to the Space Technology Mission Directorate (STMD) NASA Research Announcement (NRA), titled "Space Technology Research, Development, Demonstration, and Infusion 2014 (SpaceTech-REDDI-2014)." The Phase II Request Letter will be provided to the current Phase I contractors (listed below) on or about May 12, 2016. The Government is conducting a phased acquisition involving a progressive competitive down-selection process (see 1817.7301-5). Competition for subsequent phases will build on the results of the previous phases. Phase I was the Engineering Development Unit Hardware Phase with a 15 month period of performance (4/1/15 - 6/30/16). Phase II is the Brassboard Hardware Phase with an expected duration of up to 24 months. The award criteria for subsequent phases will include demonstrated completion of previous phase requirements. The Government expects that only the initial phase contractors will be capable of successfully competing for the subsequent phase(s). Proposals for the subsequent phase(s) will be requested from these contractors. The Government does not intend to issue a new, formal solicitation for subsequent phases(s). Request letters will be issued for each subsequent phase to provide guidance on proposal content and evaluation criteria. Each subsequent phase will be synopsized. Notwithstanding the expectation that only the initial phase contractors will be capable of successfully competing for the subsequent phase(s), proposals from all responsible sources submitted, by the proposal due date, will be considered. In order to contend for subsequent phase awards, however, such prospective offerors must demonstrate a design maturity equivalent to that of the prior phase contractors and that the proposed technology meets the required TRL for the phase and category of work sought and further advancement of the TRL as required through all phases. In addition, proposals must demonstrate completion of all previous phase requirements and progress toward performance goals as outlined in the Appendix as applicable. Failure to fully and completely demonstrate the design maturity and appropriate TRL may render the proposal unacceptable with no further consideration for contract award. Offerors not awarded a Phase I contract, that intend to propose to Phase II, shall submit an email to the address below stating its intent by COB May 6, 2016 in order to receive a Request Letter. The current Phase I contractors are as follows: GCDP-02-TA-15015, NASA Glenn Research Center GCDP-02-TA-15016, NASA Glenn Research Center NNL15AA04C, UMPQUA Research Company NNL15AA08C, University of Texas at Arlington Technical, programmatic, and procurement comments and questions may be addressed by e-mail to HQ-STMD-GCDC2@mail.nasa.gov. Responses to inquiries will be answered via e-mail and will be provided to all offerors.
