The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) is re-soliciting information from potential sources capable of providing logistics support and other related services, as described herein, for NASA GSFC, NASA Headquarters (HQ), and the NASA Wallops Flight Facility (WFF). A previous Sources Sought Notice was issued under the subject Notice ID on July 27, 2022. It is anticipated that NASA GSFC will issue a solicitation for a follow-on contract to the Goddard Logistics & Technical Information II (GLTI II) contract currently being performed under contract number 80GSFC17C0010. NASA GSFC is seeking responses from all interested parties, including all socioeconomic categories of Small Businesses and Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCU)/Minority Institutions (MI), for the purpose of determining the appropriate level of competition or Small Business subcontracting goals for the services to be performed under this requirement. The Government reserves the right to consider a Small, 8(a), Women-Owned, Veteran-Owned, Service Disabled Veteran-Owned, Economically Disadvantaged Women-Owned, or HUBZone Small Business Set-Aside based on responses received. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) Code is 561210, Facilities Support Services, and the corresponding Small Business Size Standard is $47M (calculated in accordance with 13 CFR 121.104). The purpose of the contemplated Goddard Logistics Services Contract (GLSC) requirement is to provide support to the NASA Information and Logistics Management Division (ILMD). The ILMD is responsible for providing expertise to develop, innovate, and advance all NASA GSFC's logistics management needs to meet Earth science, space science, and exploration mission requirements. The principal purpose of this requirement is to obtain logistics services in an environment which the Contractor manages the daily operations while achieving maximum cost-effectiveness, high customer satisfaction, compliance with applicable federal laws and regulations, and ILMD procedures. These ILMD logistics services include, but are not limited to: (1) Disposal Operations: property disposal management, inventory, reutilization of property, property screening, warehousing and storage; (2) Equipment Management: equipment accountability, cataloging to include classification and control, physical inventories, use of the NASA property plant and equipment management systems, and Center property training; (3) Mail Management: provide management of Mail Services Center for incoming and outbound mail operations which are provided by AbilityOne as a directed Subcontractor; (4) Supply and Materials Management Operations: inventory management, physical inventory, receiving operations, warehousing space flight and institutional support material (storage and issue), purchasing for program, project, and institutional support, and hazardous materials management; (5) Transportation Management: vehicle fleet management, fuel station operations, motor pool operations, garage facilities operations, pickup and delivery services, taxi/shuttle and other bus services, outbound domestic and international freight/shipping services, packing and crating services, and global space flight hardware transportation and related engineering support; (6) Export Control: requirements determination, training and regulation interpretation, information dissemination, and technology transfer review. Any above-mentioned services in direct support of NASA programs and projects are critical in nature. These services are technical in nature and directly impact stakeholder schedules and costs across multiple Agency missions. Examples of these critical services are, but not limited to, purchasing/warehousing/issuing Electrical, Electronic, and Electromechanical (EEE) Parts, packing and crating, global space flight hardware transportation and related engineering support, and Export Control services.
