NASA/JSC has a requirement for critical hardware to maintain the Russian-designed waste and hygiene compartment (ACY) located onboard the US segment of the Interational Space Station (ISS). Hardware will include items such as filters, urine valve blocks, pre-treat tanks, and solid waste containers. Additionally, NASA/JSC requires the technical and design services necessary to integrate said hardware into the existing ACY system. The ACY was designed and manufactured by RSC-Energia. As such, RSC-Energia is the only entity that has access to the proprietary drawings and special tooling required to manufacture the critical hardware required to maintain ACY. Therefore, RSC-Energia is considered uniquely qualified to provide the aforementioned hardware, consumables, and services necessary to support integration, launch site processing, and operations onboard the ISS. NASA/JSC intends to extend contract number NNJ06GA16C from December 31, 2024 to December 31, 2025 to acquire these services from S.P. Korolev Rocket and Space Corporation Energia (RSC-Energia). NASA’s exemption to the Iran-North Korea-Syria Nonproliferation Act (INKSNA) ends on December 31, 2025. However, if Congress approves an extension to NASA’s INKSNA exemption through at least 2028, the period of performance for contract NAS15-10110 can be extended through 2028 to align with Russia’s commitment to support continued ISS operations through 2028. If Congress approves an extension to NASA’s INKSNA exemption through at least 2030 and Russia extends its commitment to support continued ISS operations through 2030, the period of performance for contract NNJ06GA16C can be extended through 2030 to align with section 10815 of the “Creating Helpful Incentives to Produce Semiconductors Act of 2002” which states that it shall be U.S. policy to continue full operations of the ISS through at least fiscal year 2030. The Government does not intend to acquire a commercial item using FAR Part 12. Interested organizations may submit their capabilities and qualifications to perform the effort electronically via email to Kelsey.j.klinger@nasa.gov not later than 4:30 PM Central Time on December 22, 2023. Such capabilities/qualifications will be evaluated solely for the purpose of determining whether or not to conduct this acquisition on a competitive basis. A determination by the Government not to compete this acquisition on a full and open competition basis, based upon responses to this notice, is solely within the discretion of the Government. NASA Clause 1852.215-84, Ombudsman, is applicable. The Center Ombudsman for this acquisition can be found at : https://www.hq.nasa.gov/office/procurement/regs/Procurement-Ombuds-Comp-Advocate-Listing.pdf
