Description
The USGS is seeking sources for a possible mission operations center (MOC) for the Landsat 10 project. While there have been prior RFIs and studies issued for this activity, significant changes in the mission architecture necessitate engaging with industry again to get updated information. The L10 project has been revised per direction from the administration and congress with a new architecture that differs from the baseline that was previously used in prior engagement with industry. The baseline L10 architecture originally consisted of a ""triplet"" of three observatories (spacecraft bus + instrument) that were launched on a single vehicle and formed a constellation that executed Landsat Next mission requirements. The mission has since been revised to a single observatory with a targeted launch in late 2031. Thus, MOC requirements and objectives have been revised and the RFI seeks to obtain new MOC development and flight operations readiness and long-term operations costing information per the revised implementation approach. Additionally, the budget profile for L10 development has been revised to reflect a higher focus on cost efficiency and savings. Thus, the Government is seeking architecture solutions that offer cost effective options for the L10 Mission Operations Center and Flight Operations functions. Information received from this RFI will be used by the Government to develop its acquisition strategy for the L10 MOC for long-term operations. This is a Request for Information (RFI) only and is not a solicitation for a contract or grant award. This RFI notice is for information purposes only, is not a request for proposals, and does not obligate the Government in any way. A request for proposals may or may not result from this request. The Government will not reimburse the respondents for any costs associated with the information submitted in response to this request. The Government will treat each submission in confidence. The following additional references are provided to assist in understanding this acquisition: * The NASA Landsat 10 spacecraft draft Request for Proposal (RFP) was approved for release and can be found on SAM.gov at the following link: https://sam.gov/workspace/contract/opp/0d992d9de6904b28bf3c20880064d606/view * NASA Landsat 10 Web Pages: https://science.nasa.gov/mission/landsat-10/ https://science.nasa.gov/mission/landsat-10/mission-details/ * USGS Landsat 10 web page: usgs.gov/landsat-missions/landsat-10
