4. Allow NASA/JSC to better utilize industry input to improve future Request for Proposals.
Industry Day is open to all firms that are interested in pursuing contracting/subcontracting opportunities on the RVGSS effort whether or not they have performed work at JSC. All interested parties are encouraged to participate in the WebEx. Questions will be allowed at the end of the WebEx presentation.
ONE-ON-ONE SESSIONS:
To facilitate interactive communications with industry, NASA personnel will also be available for private meetings with individual companies after the WebEx Industry Day.
The purpose of the RVGSS one-on-one communication meetings is to allow industry the opportunity to better understand the current requirements and to allow industry an opportunity to provide input on any future Request for Proposals.
The meetings are intended to be question and answer sessions in which neither side will be making a formal presentation.

The Meetings will not exceed 25 minutes in length and attendance is limited to four people.
