Tender Details

NASA/Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) has a requirement for the extension of Contract NNG04EB99C with the Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) for a continuation of the Magnetospheric MultiScale (MMS) mission. SwRI is currently performing the instrument operations management, which includes instrument operations planning, scheduling, and engineering parameter review and trending, as well as the science operations, which includes planning all instrument modes, calibrations, regions of interest, and data dissemination to the funded co-investigators and general scientific community through the Science Data Center at the Laboratory for Atmospheric and Space Physics (LASP) at the University of Colorado in Boulder.
NASA/GSFC intends to issue a sole-source Request for Proposal (RFP) for an extension to SwRI-s current contract, NNG04EB99C, to acquire these services under the statutory authority of 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1)--Only One Responsible Source. The estimated period of performance of this cost-plus-fixed-fee (CPFF) contract extension will be for one (1) year from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027. SwRI along with the support of its subcontractors is the only organization currently qualified to fulfil the subject requirement.
SwRI was competitively selected in May 2005, under the Announcement of Opportunity (AO) for MMS (AO-02-OSS-03), for science payload development, flight operations, and mission scientific analysis. The AO provided for the mission formulation, development, flight, and closeout phases. The MMS Science payload is a state-of-the-art field and particles science payload comprised of many individual sensors on each of the four identical MMS spacecraft. It advances the prior art by a factor of up to 100 through use of multiple linked sensors to view the entire sky without waiting for the spacecraft to spin. The entire mission science payload was conceived, planned, and managed by SwRI. SwRI and its subcontractors have performed the MMS flight s...
