KSC is seeking capabilities from Small, 8(a), Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Businesses, and Historically Underutilized Business Zone (HUBZone) businesses for the purposes of making any potential small business set-aside determination. This requirement’s NAICS code is 621111. KSC is also seeking capabilities from Small, Small Disadvantaged, 8(a), Woman-owned Small, Veteran, Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small, HUBZone, Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCU) and Minority Institutions (MI), Native American and Alaskan Indian businesses for the purposes of determining small business subcontracting goals for this requirement if it is not set-aside. This is not a solicitation announcement. This sources sought synopsis is for information and planning purposes and is not to be construed as a commitment by the Government nor will the Government pay for information solicited. Since this is a sources sought announcement, no evaluation letters and/or results will be issued to the respondents. Respondents deemed fully qualified will be considered in any resultant solicitation for the requirement.
You are requested to provide electronic responses (20-page maximum, including attachments, minimum font size 12, including your ability to successfully manage an effort of the complexity characterized above) via e-mail to the primary Point of Contact (POC) for this requirement. Your response is required by March 9, 2007. To facilitate a prompt review by the NASA team, a one (1) page summary shall be included with your capability statement(s), which identifies your company’s specific capabilities that are relevant to the requirement. Companies are also requested to provide your name, address, POC, average annual revenue for the past three years, number of employees, applicable NAICS code(s), and your Government size/ type classification (Large, Small, Small Disadvantaged, 8(a), Woman-owned Small, Veteran, Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small, HUBZone, Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCU) and Minority Institutions (MI), Native American, and Alaskan Indian businesses) on the summary page. KSC encourages qualified Joint Venture business arrangements to submit capability statements as well. It is insufficient to provide only general brochures or generic information. Copies of your capability statement(s) may be made available to this requirement’s Prime Contractor competitors in the future and should therefore not contain company-sensitive information. KSC is also interested in potential prime contractor feedback related to subcontracting opportunities, given the possibility this action may be competed on an unrestricted basis. This feedback would be used as research information to support the analysis and development of subcontracting goals. This feedback should also be provided electronically via e-mail to the appropriate work package POC(s) by March 1, 2007.
General information about this requirement can be found on the World Wide Web at http://ibsr.ksc.nasa.gov/IBSR/default.cfm . It is essential that you read this information before preparing you capability statement or subcontracting feedback.
