Cooperative Agreement to establish a Heliophysics Science Center (HSC)
NASA Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) intends to issue a Cooperative Agreement Notice (CAN) to re-compete the cooperative agreement for the Heliophysics Science Center.
The NASA /GSFC Heliophysics Science Center (HSC) will carry out basic and applied research in the field of heliophysics in relation to NASA’s Strategic Goals.
GSFC and external scientists will cooperatively carry out observational, experimental, and theoretical research in support of NASA’s strategic heliophysics science objectives.
NASA’s prime strategic goal for heliophysics is to understand the Sun and its interactions with Earth, the solar system and the interstellar medium, including space weather.
It is anticipated that the subject CAN will be a full and open competition, and a Cooperative Agreement (CA) will be the result of this effort.
The period of performance will be for approximately five years from the date of the award.
NASA intends for the CAN to be awarded as a SINGLE cooperative agreement that will establish a center of excellence in heliophysics.
Where multiple organizations are teaming in response to this CAN, the team’s proposal should name a single organization to serve as the formal partner to, and recipient of, the cooperative agreement, with a description of how the research activities will be distributed and managed among the team partners.
NASA will ONLY consider proposals from Educational Institution and Non Profit organizations.
The Government anticipates a release of the CAN by late August early September 202 0. NASA Clause 185 2. 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.
The solicitation and any documents related to this procurement can be found at https://www.grants.gov; and https://beta.SAM.gov; It is the offeror's responsibility to monitor the internet sites for the release of the CAN and amendments (if any).
Potential offerors will be responsible for downloading their own copy of the CAN and amendments (if any).
Proposers must be affiliated with an institution at nspires.nasaprs.com and, in general, NASA provides funding only to US institutions.
All contractual and technical questions must be submitted via e-mail to Sislyn.p.barrett@nasa.gov.
