Offerors shall acknowledge receipt of this, Amendment 001 - 80MSFC20R0009P00001, to the Center Administrative Support Services II (CASS II) solicitation, as part of the proposal response cover letter to RFP 80MSFC20R0009. All�terms and conditions of RFP 80MSFC20R0009 remain unchanged. Potential offerors�remain responsible for downloading their own copy of this�and any additional amendments (as applicable). 09/30/2020 Virtual Industry Day Charts and List of Meeting Attendees�attached. 09/25/2020 The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) George C. Marshall Space Flight Center (MSFC) is issuing this solicitation (Notice ID# 80MSFC20R0009) as a Request for Proposal (RFP) for the purchase of Center Administrative Support Services II (CASS II) to support�MSFC and Michoud Assembly Facility (MAF). This solicitation is a follow-on competition to the Center Administrative Support Services (CASS) contract, NNM16AA10C.� CASS II services will continue to provide support to MSFC and�MAF. The Government contemplates awarding CASS II as a firm-fixed-price (FFP) contract with an indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) component resulting�from this solicitation. The Government intends to solicit offers using a combination of�Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 15, Contracting by Negotiation;�Part 12, Acquisition of Commercial Items; and NASA FAR Supplement (NFS) Part 1815, Contracting by Negotiation. The following are applicable to this acquisition: FAR 52.212-1, Instructions to Offerors-Commercial Items (JUN 2020); FAR 52.212-3, Offeror Representation And Certifications-Commercial Items (JUN 2020) Alternate I (OCT 2014); FAR 52.212-4, Contract Terms and Conditions-Commercial Items (OCT 2018); and FAR 52.212-5, Contract Terms and Conditions Required To Implement Statutes or Executive Orders-Commercial Items (DEVIATION 20-03). On April 3, 2020, a Request for Information (RFI) / Sources Sought Notice (Notice ID# 80MSFC20-RFI-CASS-II) was posted on beta.sam.gov, requesting capability statements from certified 8(a) Small Businesses to satisfy the Government�s requirements under a follow-on procurement and for the purposes of determining the appropriate small business set-aside classification or small business subcontracting goals for the CASS II acquisition.� The response due date was April 17, 2020. Since then, this set-aside has been changed from a Section 8(a) to a HUBZone set-aside. A Draft Request for Proposal (DRFP) was not released to seek industry comments for the CASS II requirement, as the acquisition�of FFP�commercial services�will utilize a streamlined non-complex Price Performance Tradeoff (PPTO) acquisition strategy. The CASS II acquisition is�a HUBZone small business set-aside.�Offerors must be identified as a HUBZone small business concern both at the time of initial offer and at the time of contract award. The Government intends to conduct a virtual industry day briefing on September 30, 2020, to provide details regarding key features of this�RFP. �Potential offerors are required to register for the virtual industry day meeting no later than September 29, 2020, 12:00 p.m. Central Time by emailing renatta.r.america@nasa.gov with the Subject Line of: �CASS II - INDUSTRY DAY REGISTRATION � Company Name.� The presented industry day charts, along with a list of potential offers/attendees participating in the industry day meeting, will be made available to all interested parties via http://beta.sam.gov/. NFS Clause 1852.215-84, Ombudsman, is applicable.� The Center Ombudsman for this acquisition can be found at: https://prod.nais.nasa.gov/pub/pub_library/Omb.html Telephone inquiries will not be accepted.� All questions shall be submitted in writing by email to the primary point of contact shown below (Renatta R. America, at renatta.r.america@nasa.gov). Potential offerors will be responsible for downloading their own copy of this solicitation and amendments (if any).
