Moffett Field contains approximately 5 million square feet of floor space including (primarily) office space, technical/laboratory space, and mechanical/storage spaces. NASA will conduct this acquisition as an 8(a) set-aside competition. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this acquisition is 561210 – Facilities Support Services and the small business size standard is $47M. Consistent with the Government’s commitment to provide employment opportunities for those with disabilities, the Government encourages interested prime offerors to review available AbilityOne services and abilities. While the use of AbilityOne is encouraged, it is not a mandatory requirement for this contract. This competitive acquisition will result in a hybrid contract with Cost Plus Award Fee (CPAF) Core requirements and an IDIQ requirement with the ability to issue CPAF or Firm Fixed Price (FFP) task orders. The contract will have a total potential period of performance of 5 years, including a 12-month base period, a 12-month option period 1, a 12-month option period 2, a 12-month option period 3, a 12-month option period 4, an option to extend services not to exceed 6 months, and an effective ordering period of 5 years from the contract effective date to place task orders against the IDIQ CLINs.

The contract will be performed onsite at NASA Ames Research Center and offsite at the Contractor’s facilities with approval by the Contracting Officer. Potential offerors should pay close attention to all solicitation instructions; however, the following requirements list is summarized to assist in proposal development. Please note that this list is not exhaustive, and the solicitation terms and conditions and provisions in sections L and M take precedence: A Phase-in period will be conducted. The phase-in period will be 60 days in duration and will be established on a separate CLIN. The Government will make available existing Installation-Accountable Government Property (IAGP) for contract performance and Government-Furnished Property (GFP) for use at the Government’s facility as described in the RFP. NASA has determined that this acquisition may give rise to a potential organizational conflict of interest (OCI). Accordingly, the attention of prospective offerors is invited to Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Subpart 9.5 Organizational Conflicts of Interest. Offerors are required to submit an acceptable OCI Plan in accordance with the requirements of Data Requirements Description (DRD 012), Organizational Conflict of Interest Plan. Further instructions/provisions are located in Section L.2.(a)(4). NASA ARC appreciates the comments received in response to the release of the Draft RFP. These comments resulted in improvements to the quality and content of the overall RFP. Offerors should review the RFP in its entirety, as its content has changed from the Draft RFP version. The following list identifies some areas where significant changes or clarifications have been made from the Draft RFP to this final RFP that may not have been addressed in the Draft RFP questions and responses; Evaluation Strategy – The AFSS II evaluation strategy no longer includes the Mission Suitability factor.

The Cost/Price Template Workbook and Cost/Price Factor portion of Sections L&M have been updated to reflect the addition of Government’s estimate of direct labor hours and labor categories and to improve clarity based on feedback from industry. Increased the page limitations for the Past Performance Volume based on industry feedback. The evaluation of Government Property Management Plans and Data Rights Assertions will be evaluated for eligibility rather than as part of the Management Approach Subfactor under the Mission Suitability Factor. These are required items for the evaluation so the prudent decision was to evaluate them for eligibility since the Mission Suitability Factor will not be included in this evaluation. This list is not intended to cover all changes nor describe all RFP requirements. Offerors should carefully review the RFP in its entirety.
