- Description
- NASA/JSC has a requirement to acquire the following services from Nuytco Research Ltd for the rental of Deepwork mini-submersibles and Exosuit 1-astmosphere Dive Suit (ADS). NASA/JSC intends to obtain these services from Nuytco Research Ltd. The scope of work includes rental of the Deepwork mini-submersibles, rental of the ADS, and mission support services. These services will support the joint underwater missions in support of operational tests where planetary exploration techniques and technologies will be developed. The mini-submersibles provide performance characteristics and operational challenges similar to those of both planetary rovers and unmanned robotics. The ADS brings many of the same challenges found in a space suit (e.g., reduced mobility, operator fatigue, reduced visibility) while also offering enough headroom to incorporate state of the art informatics solutions for evaluation. Astronauts will be trained to operate either or both vehicles, and will provide end-operator feedback to the tests. Current market research indicates that there are no other vendors available with the specialized equipment to provide the services needed for this requirement. The Government intends to acquire the required service using FAR Part 12. NOTE: THIS NOTICE WAS NOT POSTED TO FEDBIZOPPS ON THE DATE INDICATED IN THE NOTICE ITSELF (24-APR-2019); HOWEVER, IT DID APPEAR IN THE FEDBIZOPPS FTP FEED ON THIS DATE. PLEASE CONTACT 877-472-3779 or fbo.support@gsa.gov REGARDING THIS ISSUE.
