Description
CALIBRATION AND METROLOGY SERVICES (CAMS) V
STATEMENT OF WORK (SOW)
Overview
The NASA Johnson Space Center (JSC) in Houston, TX currently has an existing Measurement
Standards and Calibration Laboratory (MSCL) located in Building 343.
The MSCL provides calibration operations for Measuring and Test Equipment (MTE) primarily
for JSC Organizations. The MSCL also supports calibrations for other NASA centers and
Federal Government Agencies. Most MTE are commercial off-the-shelf used to measure
physical, mechanical, and electrical properties such as torque wrenches, pressure transducers and
voltmeters.
CAMS V SOW requirements will be performed as Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity
(IDIQ) requirements, which will be issued as performance-based IDIQ Task Orders (TOs).
Deliverables required during performance of this SOW shall be provided by the Contractor per
the Data Requirements Description (DRD) unless otherwise specified in the SOW or a TO.
Travel, training, and other direct costs for IDIQ requirements will be negotiated on a task order
basis.
IDIQ requirements may change year-to-year and are negotiated each year and implemented as
TOs. The Government may request, terminate or change IDIQ TOs at any time during the period
of performance.
The structure of the SOW should not be construed as defining a required contractor
organizational structure.
