Organizational Conflict of Interest (OCI) Plan Development and Monitoring

The contract requires the development, implementation, and annual updating of an Organizational Conflict of Interest OCI Plan to address risks related to biased ground rules, unequal access to information or resources, and impaired objectivity in performance. The plan must be designed to ensure impartiality and fairness throughout all contractual activities, with a specific focus on identifying, mitigating, and monitoring potential conflicts that could compromise the integrity of NASA Langley Research Center’s operations. This effort is critical to maintaining trust and compliance in federally funded projects governed by strict ethical and procedural standards. The work is classified under NAICS code 541611 and is structured as a subcontract with a response deadline of September 4, 2026, and a posting date of July 22, 2026. Performance is expected to take place in Hampton, and the contracting entity is the National Aeronautics and Space Administration operating through its Langley Research Center. Though the contract does not specify set-aside status or point of contact details, the emphasis on continuous annual updates signals an ongoing compliance obligation extending beyond initial implementation. The successful contractor must demonstrate a robust framework for proactive risk identification and structured intervention to uphold objectivity in all phases of contract execution.
