NASA Glenn Research Center (GRC) has a requirement for executing specific study, outreach, and partnership formation tasks to address specific NASA-defined research and technology development related goals. The scope of work is limited to office, conference room, and remote meeting settings. There are no on-site facility, laboratory, or other physical plant utilization plans, and no equipment, hardware, materials, or other physical items to be involved. Any on-site presence of contractor or subcontractor employees would be limited to participation in meetings with NASA personnel. NASA GRC intends to issue a sole source contract to acquire the services from Ohio Aerospace Institute. The Ohio Aerospace Institute is uniquely capable of performing the requirements because of their experience successfully serving Federal Research and Development organizations in the State of Ohio by forming partnerships through outreach and team formation efforts involving organizations in the academic, industrial, entrepreneurial, and trade association sectors. 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 Sarah Deroche at sarah.a.deroche@nasa.gov not later than 12:00pm EST on September 13, 2021. 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 http://prod.nais.nasa.gov/pub/pub_library/Omb.html
