- Description
- The deadline for responses has been extended to 11/20/2024 at 4:00pm EST. NASA/Information Technology Procurement Office (ITPO) is hereby soliciting information from potential sources for Remote Proofing Solutions for the Johnson Space Center (JSC). The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) (ITPO) is seeking capability statements from all interested parties, including all socioeconomic categories of Small Businesses and Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCU)/Minority Institutions (MI), and members of the underserved communities as defined by Executive Order 13985, Advancing Racial Equity And Support For Underserved Communities Through The Federal Government, for the purposes of determining the appropriate level of competition and/or small business subcontracting goals for the Remote Proofing Solutions. The Government reserves the right to consider a Small, 8(a), Women-owned (WOSB), Service-Disabled Veteran (SDVOSB), Economically Disadvantaged Women-owned Small Business (EDWOSB) or HUBZone business set-aside based on responses received. NASA operates 18 in-person identity proofing facilities across the US; however, NASA does not have in-person proofing facilities near many of our remote workers. Workers that are not near one of the NASA in-person proofing facilities are required to travel to a NASA facility to complete an in-person identity proofing. NASA inperson identity proofing processes follow Federal guidance outlined in NIST 800- 63A and FIPS 201-3, which results in an Identity Assurance Level (IAL) 3 enrollment. This Request for Information (RFI) is intended to identify remote proofing solutions that are commercially available and could be integrated into the NASA identity onboarding processes to provide an IAL 3 enrollment option for remote workers. Cost efficient solutions to expand NASA IAL 3 identity proofing footprint across the US are preferred, however not required. If support options are available for remote workers going through the identity proofing process (e.g., help desk), please include capabilities that are available in your response. As part of this RFI, NASA desires feedback on the feasibility of completing a short duration (e.g., 90 days) proof of concept, which would include integrating a commercial solution into NASA identity proofing processes as an additional option to in-person identity enrollments. Additionally, in the future NASA may investigate add-on capabilities to issue NASA credentials to users that have completed an IAL 3 remote identity proofing. If commercial services are available to enable IAL 3 remote identity proofing processes and additional capabilities are available to issue Authentication Assurance Level (AAL) 3 credentials (e.g., Smartcard), please provide general solution information in your RFI response. Proprietary information, if any, should be minimized and SHALL Page 3 of 3 BE CLEARLY MARKED. Please be advised that all submissions become Government property and will not be returned. No solicitation exists; therefore, do not request a copy of the solicitation. If a solicitation is released, it will be synopsized on NASA SEWP, GSA, or SAM.gov. Interested firms are responsible for monitoring these websites for the release of any solicitation or synopsis. Vendors having the capabilities necessary to meet or exceed the stated requirements are invited to submit appropriate documentation, literature, brochures, and references. Please advise if the requirement is considered to be a commercial or commercial-type product. A commercial item is defined in FAR 2.101. Please include your capabilities to support this RFI and provide the additional information below in your response: � General business name, business division, and corporate address � Preferred point of contact(s) to include phone number(s), and e- mail address(es) � Unique Entity Identifier (UEI) number � Cage Code � Small Business Status, if applicable � North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code(s) � NASA SEWP Contract, GSA Contract # / GSA Federal (if applicable) NASA Clause 1852.215-84, Ombudsman, is applicable. The Center Ombudsman for this acquisition can be found at : https://www.hq.nasa.gov/office/procurement/regs/Procurement-Ombuds-CompAdvocate-Listing.pdf All responses shall be submitted electronically via email to Kaelin Kelley, kaelin.w.kelley@nasa.gov and Christina Ostronic, christina.m.ostronic@nasa.gov no later than *Wednesday, November 20, 2024 by 4PM EST* (updated). Please reference 80TECH25RFI0002 � Remote Proofing Solutions in any response. This synopsis is for information and planning purposes only and is not to be construed as a commitment by the Government nor will the Government pay for information solicited. Respondents will not be notified of the results of the evaluation. Respondents deemed fully qualified will be considered in any resultant solicitation for the requirement.
