Description

NASA/NSSC has a requirement for a course entitled “Integrated Applied Space Systems Engineering and Project Management Program.” The objective of the training is to provide a graduate level curriculum for Integrated Applied Space Systems Engineering and Project Management Graduate Certificate delivered onsite at NASA Ames as well as providing mentoring support directly related to this program. The vendor shall be responsible for developing the integrated program and providing all training materials to include any assignments, exams, software, textbooks or workbooks necessary. The vendor shall provide a graduate certificate program based on existing modules into an integrated program design and include a not-for graduate credit leadership development component. The program shall provide a unique combination of hands-on project management development with a space domain focus explicitly derived from NASA project management procedures, policies, practices and requirements including NASA’s NPR 7120.5d and integrate into it space domain focus on system engineering, with a balanced and integrated technical domain and system management approach tied to NASA NPR 7123.1.

NASA/NSSC intends to purchase the above curriculum from Stevens Institute of Technology, School of Systems and Enterprises, Hoboken, NJ 07030. Pursuant to FAR 6.302-1, the acquisition of these services has been determined to be reasonably available from only one source.
