Scope

Modification 1 This modification 1 is to notify industry that the Commercial Low-Earth Orbit (LEO) Destination Contract (CLDC) acquisition is on hold until further notice.

NASA has determined that, rather than moving forward at this time with a firm-fixed price contract for Commercial LEO Destination (CLD) certification and services, NASA will continue to support U.S. industry’s design and demonstration of CLDs with funded Space Act Agreements (SAA) for the next phase.

Details regarding this or any future acquisition related to CLD certification and services will be posted on www.sam.gov.

This CLDC Technical Documents Library will remain accessible for reference purposes to provide technical documents to the CLDC Technical Library site to keep industry up to date on current NASA technical standards that may be relevant for a future FAR-based acquisition.

This Library is not to be associated with or required for compliance with any other acquisition or SAA effort.

Technical Documents associated with this Library will be updated in "Data Drops" moving forward.

Technical Documents are contained within .zip files with an index for all uploads being contained within the Excel file "CLDC Tech Library Contents.xlsx".

This activity does not constitute a Request for Proposal, Invitation for Bid, or Request for Quotation and it is not to be construed as a commitment by the Government to enter a contract.

Please continue to monitor www.sam.gov postings and the Acquisition Website for updates on the release of any CLDC information. ***************** (End of Modification 1) ***************** This National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA/Lyndon B.

Johnson Space Center (JSC)) is establishing the Technical Library for all potential offerors to the Commercial Low-Earth Orbit (LEO) Des...

How to bid on this

This is a contract solicitation, not a grant. To bid, you submit a proposal (usually a price and a description of how you would do the work) directly to the government, through the channel the official listing specifies, not through Oppward.

  1. Make sure your business has an active SAM.gov registration. You cannot be paid on a federal contract without one.
  2. Read the full solicitation on the official listing above, especially the scope of work, not just this summary. Our guide to reading a solicitation walks through what to look for.
  3. This listing has no set-aside restriction ("full and open competition"), meaning any business, large or small, can bid.
  4. Submit your proposal by the deadline, using the exact submission method the official listing states. A technically on-time bid sent the wrong way is often treated as late.
