Solicitation / RFP / RFQ

This document is a "Recommendation and Determination to Solicit from One Source or Brand Name." It justifies procuring supplies or services from a single source because competition is deemed impractical. The acquisition is for components to populate proto-flight boards for the Luce / FALCON-Lidar project, leveraging an existing prototype design.

• Specific brand name components from Renesas Electronics are required.

• Part numbers are explicitly listed for various quantities (Qty23, Qty5, Qty8, Qty15, Qty19, Qty12).

• The estimated cost of this effort is not explicitly stated but is to be negotiated.

• The estimated period of performance or lead-time for delivery is 22 weeks.

This document does not detail proposal submission instructions or evaluation criteria, as it is a justification for a sole-source procurement.

This is a sole-source justification, indicating no set-aside or specific eligibility requirements for multiple bidders.

• The justification highlights that the Luce / FALCON-Lidar project has invested significant funds in developing the prototype board.
• Substituting hardware would incur substantial additional development costs and risks, potentially jeopardizing the project's success and NASA's mission. The impact could be millions of dollars in additional design, software, and firmware development.
