GOALS:
The goals of Industry Day are to:
1. Provide information on the current Environmental Support Services Contract (ESSC).
2. Promote competition on the proposed new JES acquisition.
3. Share the Government’s current vision for JA/JE.
4. Allow NASA/JSC to better utilize industry input to assist in the development of a future Request for Proposal (RFP) for the JES procurement.
Industry Day is open to all firms that are interested in pursuing contracting or subcontracting opportunities on the JES procurement.
No photographic or recording devices are permitted during the Industry Day presentation or one-on-one communication sessions.
