Full Description

This Announcement for Proposals (AFP) solicits proposals for lease of Discovery Park which represents a selection of available real property assets at MAF.



The real property assets (The Property) known as Discovery Park, and shown in Exhibit A, are as follows:



1. Approximately 45 Acres of Greenspace: This tract of land lies on the northern extent of the facility and is bounded by Old Gentilly Road (publicly accessible roadway) as well as Mercury, Uranus and Venus Drives, which are interior to the security fencing. The acreage is currently classified as underutilized greenspace. The tract’s frontage to Old Gentilly Road has availability to direct connection with municipal power, potable water and sewer services. These utilities may be established with each respective service carrier. Please see Exhibit B for a listing of municipal resources which may assist in performing diligence for these service agreements. The acreage includes what were previously large sections of parking areas that supported a previously demolished building. These areas are past their useful service life and thus have been considered greenspace for appraisal purposes.



2. Building 351: Building 351 is an approximately 32,000 sf mixed used facility. The building is subdivided into two main areas: formal event space and cafeteria. The building currently is connected to the MAF utility grids. As a result, some determination will need to be made with respect to severing the building from those utilities and re-establishing utility services from the previously mentioned municipal service providers based upon the proposer’s concept of use. This reconfiguration would be made subject to NASA’s approval and terms of use.



The Proposer may choose to propose on either asset separately or a combination of the two. NASA shall have the authority to execute either one or multiple leases in the event The Proposer chooses to include a combination of both assets in their submission.



NASA intends to utilize Enhanced Use Lease authority as set forth in 51 U.S.C. 20145 as the sole means to enter into a lease(s) for The Property. The Proposer will assume any and all financial responsibilities for operations and maintenance of The Property under such a lease. The terms and conditions in the attached Model Enhanced Use Lease (EUL) generally demonstrate all the Proposer responsibilities including those maintenance and operational parameters. While The Property has existing utilities which serve other portions of the facility, the Proposer should not assume that any existing utilities will be available for use and that any utilities required for development will be at the sole cost of the Proposer. The Property will be available at award in “as is” condition for no less than one ten (10) year base term.

NextSTEP-3 Appendix B: Moon Base DemonstrationsThe solicitation for NextSTEP-3 Appendix B: Moon Base Demonstrations, issued under solicitation number 80MSFC26R0003 by NASA Marshall Space Flight Center, seeks industry-led demonstrations to advance the development of a permanent lunar base at the Moon’s South Pole, aligning with national space policy goals of sustained lunar presence and deep space exploration readiness. This initiative targets technology readiness levels 6 and above to bridge the gap between innovation and operational mission needs, with an emphasis on architectural studies, risk reduction, and capability maturation rather than hardware production. The procurement employs a two-step process: initial White Paper submissions followed by invited full proposals under a Multi-Award Task Order Contract (MATOC) structure, with all awards structured as Firm-Fixed-Price contracts featuring performance-based milestone payments. The solicitation operates under a dual-path approach, combining Directed-Topic Calls that address specific, evolving mission needs with Open-Topic Calls that invite broader, unanticipated innovations—though submissions duplicating Directed-Topic concepts will be deemed ineligible. Evaluation is based on a non-trade-off, best-value selection process where Technical Capability (including Capability and Past Performance) is weighted at 1,000 points and must meet minimum thresholds for eligibility, while Price is assessed solely for reasonableness and completeness and does not factor into ranking. Proposals must adhere to strict formatting rules, including page limits and submission as a single searchable PDF, with key personnel qualifications, organizational conflict of interest plans, and intellectual property disclosures required as attachments. All contractors must maintain active SAM.gov registration, submit required certifications and representations, and comply with NASA-specific clauses related to data rights, payments, changes, subcontracting, whistleblower protections, and safety and liability waivers. Performance will be conducted under the NASA FAR Supplement, with invoicing required through the NASA Shared Services Center and all delivery and inspection terms left intentionally unspecified, reinforcing the analytical nature of deliverables—reports, models, simulations, and feasibility studies—rather than physical products. The contracting office at Huntsville, Alabama, remains the point of contact, with questions directed to the designated Contracting Officer, and submissions must be completed by the stated deadline to remain valid.

Phase 1 involves concept maturation and risk reduction, Phase 2 focuses on system integration and ground testing leading to flight demonstration readiness, and Phase 3 entails on-orbit demonstration and service validation, with a target launch no later than June 30, 2028. The total period of performance for the contract, if awarded, runs from August 18, 2026, through September 17, 2028, with phase-specific performance windows tied to milestone achievements. Proposals must include detailed technical and management approaches, corporate contributions, data rights assertions, and a pricing model, all submitted electronically via NASA’s EFSS Box platform by the revised deadline of August 4, 2026, at 10:00 a.m. Central Time. The solicitation requires strict compliance with ITAR-controlled technical data, as the Service Requirements Document (SRD) contains export-restricted information, and only offerors with valid Directorate of Defense Trade Controls clearance may access it through a secure SAM.gov portal after submitting proper documentation. Offers must be submitted exclusively through the designated point of contact, and any communication outside these channels will not be considered. Evaluation will be based purely on non-price factors—Technical Capability and Management Capability—each weighted and rated adjectivally as Excellent (91-100) or Very Good (71-90), with any “Poor” rating on any non-price factor rendering a proposal ineligible for award. Price will be analyzed for reasonableness and realism but will not receive a score or ranking. Award decisions will follow a rank-ordered list derived from combined non-price scores, with no tradeoffs among proposals. The contract includes clauses addressing gratuities, anti-kickback procedures, export controls, stop-work orders, and unique NASA-specific clauses covering period of performance, place of performance, data requirements, organizational conflicts of interest, and compliance with NASA

The acquisition is scoped under NAICS code 541715 with a small business size standard of 1,300 employees, and the contract permits the issuance of cost-plus-award-fee, cost-plus-fixed-fee, and firm-fixed-price orders. Offerors must submit proposals via NASA’s EFSS Box in four distinct volumes—Mission Suitability, Cost, Past Performance, and Contract—following strict formatting guidelines, including the use of Microsoft Word and Excel for narrative and pricing submissions, respectively, and prohibiting PDF conversion of core volumes. The solicitation requires comprehensive adherence to safety, health, and environmental standards aligned with MSFC policy, ISO 9001 quality systems, and robust subcontractor management practices. The Evaluation Factors for Award prioritize Mission Suitability as the most critical component, followed by Past Performance, with Cost being the least weighted, and an affirmative determination of responsibility is a mandatory pass/fail gate for award. The contract requires utilization of the ATOMS Suite for task and delivery order management and mandates financial reporting through the 533M form, with costs reported to the nearest dollar and invoicing reconciled to this report. Funding must be tracked using the government-provided Fund Code under an “oldest money first” and FIFO methodology. A significant revision occurred with Amendment 00003, which introduced the capability to issue firm-fixed-price orders under the skills augmentation portion of the contract, necessitated a full proposal resubmission, and extended the proposal deadline to August 6, 2026, in response to the impact of NASA’s February 6, 2026, Workforce Directive.
