Summary[edit]

Description
English: Lunar Gateway Logistics Sources Sought Notice (1/2)
  • NASA issued a Sources Sought Notice on Oct. 23, asking U.S. companies to provide the agency with information regarding options to transport cargo, equipment and other goods like food to and from the Gateway near the Moon. Responses were due Nov. 2.
  • NASA is planning to release a Request for Proposals for the Gateway’s logistics module in the spring, with an award in late 2019.
  • The first two logistics modules will likely launch on commercial rockets, but after Gateway assembly, NASA’s Space Launch System will be available as well.
  • This upcoming procurement from NASA is for U.S. domestic provided logistics module services only. NASA is anticipating future international Gateway partners to contribute logistic services as well, with details to be worked out at a later date.
(2/2)
  • 1. Describe preference between an acquisition using contract by negotiations procedures (Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 15), commercial acquisition procedures (FAR Part 12) and one conducted via a broad agency announcement (BAA) (FAR Part 35) [i.e., Commercial Resupply Services-2 commercial approach versus the Gateway Power Propulsion Element BAA approach].
  • 2. Describe the effect on pricing if more than one contract is awarded. How many logistic missions are needed on contract to meet anticipated business case?
  • 3. Should the Gateway Logistics Services be split into two separate acquisitions, one for the Logistics Module and one for the launch services? Why or why not?
  • 4. Identify significant technical and cost drivers associated with providing the logistic service (e.g. target launch date, interoperability standards, human rating requirements, NASA standards, etc.). Are there any commercial approaches which may mitigate these concerns while maintaining the requisite level of Gateway safety?
  • 5. Summarize the cost, schedule, and technical challenges associated with the Logistics Module performing functions in support of the other Gateway elements (e.g., providing and/or receiving power, attitude control, orbital adjustment, communications, environmental control/life support, etc.).
  • 6. Are there any impacts in requiring an ability to manifest on multiple launch vehicles to include a co-manifested configuration on SLS?
