99 -- INSTITUTIONAL BASE SUPPORT RESTRUCTURE

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Kennedy Space Center (KSC) and the United States Air Force 45 Space Wing (45 SW) plan to conduct an industry day for the recently identified Institutional Base Support Restructure on November 15, 2006. Interested parties must register for industry day at http://ibsr.ksc.nasa.gov, no later than October 31, 2006. Attendance at the industry day briefing is limited to no more than three individuals per entity. The industry day briefing will take place at the KSC Visitor Center from 8:00 am to 12:00 noon. Industry day will focus on the prospective contract construct for the future base support requirements. NASA/45SW will provide to industry the high level content anticipated for each of the identified future contracts. No responses to questions regarding content below that level will be provided. Industry is encouraged to submit questions in advance for NASA/45SW consideration and to the extent appropriate we will consider addressing those questions as part of our presentation. Advance questions must be submitted at the above identified website and prior to October 31, 2006. Preliminarily we anticipate as many as18 contracts for the following functions: NASA Protective Services, Air Force Security, Air Force Fire and Emergency Preparedness, NASA Infrastructure O&M, Air Force Infrastructure O&M, Medical/Environmental, IT & Communications, Custodial, Logistics, Propellants and Life Support, Mail, Technical Training, Airfield Services, Laboratories, Grounds, Refuse Disposal, Vehicle Ops, and Facility Modifications. Goals of Industry Day: a. Communicate to industry the anticipated content of each future contract. b. Allow NASA/45SW to solicit industry feedback. c. Promote competition on each of the follow-on acquisitions. d. Identify potential sources. Questions and Answers for Industry Day: A question and answer (Q&A) period will follow at the end of the industry day presentation. Industry is reminded that we are in the early acquisition planning phases for the restructuring activity, and therefore we reserve the right to modify or alter our approach. NOTE: No solicitations have been issued and both NASA/45SW anticipate release of draft Requests for Proposal (RFP(s)) in the future for each of identified future contracts. We anticipate separate industry briefings or other communications with industry for each of the individual acquisitions in the future, as appropriate.
