Description

National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Langley Research Center (LaRC) has a requirement for designing, fabricating, assembling, environmentally testing (vibration and vacuum chamber testing), and delivering Prototype units of the Onboard Calibration System (OCS), nominally comprised of Longwave, Shortwave and Solar sources. SDL will continue work previously completed under IIP-19 to rework, benchtop test, and deliver the Prototype Shortwave Onboard Calibration Source (SOCS). These three on-board targets, along with their support GSE, together will comprise the Onboard Calibration System.

NASA LaRC intends to issue a sole source contract to:



1. Support NASA Langley Research Center with system-level design decisions supporting definition of the Interface Control Document-s required to ensure compatibility of the hardware delivered by the partner teams. (preliminary SA optical interface defined in attachment A)

2. Design, fabricate, assemble, and thermal vacuum test and deliver to LaRC a prototype Onboard Calibration System (OCS) which is consistent with the overall measurement radiometric traceability requirements.

3. Conduct a system-level radiometric characterization of the prototype instrument core comprised of the LaRC-provided DEMETER Sensor Module Assembly (SMA) Prototype Unit integrated with the SDL-developed Broadband Calibration subsystems, under simulated operational environments.

4. Support development of in-flight calibration and validation operational protocols, and

5. Support NASA Langley Research Center in development of radiometric traceability budgets and performance allocations for the Onboard Calibration System.

7. Deliver all residual items (e.g. GSE, residual parts, etc) at the conclusion of the contract.

from the University of Utah, Space Dynamics Laboratory (SDL) under the authority of FAR 6.302-1 - Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency...
