Description
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), Johnson Space Center (JSC) plans to issue a Request for Proposal (RFP) for the Neutral Buoyancy Laboratory (NBL) Operations Contract II (NOC II). The principal purpose of this requirement is to specify technical, managerial, administrative, safety, and dive operations work needed to ensure the availability, integrity, and reliability of the systems and subsystems of integrated hardware and software used in the preparation for and performance of mission operations at the NBL supporting NASA human spaceflight programs. The objectives of this contract are to provide support (labor and expertise) to ensure the continuing safe operations of the NBL and support all required events and increase opportunities for synergy across all functions, processes, and systems. NASA will collaborate with the Contractor to develop technical and procedural innovations that improve safety, enhance quality, ensure user satisfaction, and reduce cost.
The NBL is a key Agency asset that supports human space flight training by simulating weightless and partial gravity environments through underwater diving operations. It provides capabilities for astronaut training, real-time mission troubleshooting, flight hardware development and verification, water survival training, and support of external customers. Because of the NBL-s importance to the NASA mission, and the highly hazardous operations performed there, the NBL has high-visibility to agency management and the general public. The NBL also includes a Logistics and Mockup Facility (LMF) that provides fabrication, repair, and maintenance of mockups.
The NBL is operated by JSC-s Flight Operations Directorate (FOD). The NBL currently supports the International Space Station (ISS), Artemis (including Orion, Gateway, and Lunar Surface operations), other NASA space programs, and other JSC directorates (e.g., Engineering, Health and Human Performance, and Pu...
