STATEMENT OF WORK

SCALE MODEL OF INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION (ISS) WITH SPACE SHUTTLE
ORBITER FOR USE technical and mission support purposes

[Requirements]{.underline}

Up to 20 Models shall be manufactured. 10 of the models shall be
delivered to each of the following centers: NASA Headquarters and NASA
Johnson Space Center. The initial delivery of the models shall be no
later than 3 months after Authority To Proceed (ATP). The final delivery
of the models shall be no later than 6 months after ATP.

Scale:

-   Model shall be 1/100.

[Specification]{.underline}

-   Models shall be made of resin, plastic, and/or metal.

-   The models shall be modular so that the connection point is similar
    and the modules, truss segments, arrays, etc., can be added or
    removed. This will ensure the model can be used for demonstrating
    configuration changes, as well as providing for changes as the ISS
    assembly continues. Models should be built to reflect current ISS
    configuration and shall include all remaining components that are
    attachable.

[Material]{.underline}

-   Offereors are encouraged to be creative in their solution of the
    model and base material; however, the materials proposed shall be
    appropriate for technical accuracy and enhance the overall
    aesthetics, not detract from the model.

-   Model shall be mounted on a base that permits the model to be firmly
    and independently secured on a desk.

-   The models shall be guaranteed to maintain its shape and not droop
    or hang through normal wear and tear for a minimum of one year.

[Colors and Markings]{.underline}

-   Each module/element shall be identified in similar fashion as the
    actual flight module. Markings on each element shall include:

    -   Symbol of the appropriate national agency: NASA, ESA, CSA, RSA,
        JAXA. National symbols should be of similar size.

    -   Flags of country origin for US, Canadian and Japanese elements.
        All flags should be of similar size

    -   Name of each module/element: example: US Lab Module/Destiny

        -   All modules elements and components shall reflect accurate
            external colors and markings as viewed by the photography of
            components in orbit or in preparation for flight, as visible
            on the ground.

[Packaging/Shipping]{.underline}

-   Models shall be packed individually, properly protected for
    shipment.

-   Some assembly of components may be required after delivery.

-   Model shall be durable enough and packaged properly to endure
    routine shipping.

[Configuration]{.underline}

-   The model shall be built so the various modules, solar arrays, etc
    are depicted in the "Assembly Complete Configuration" as identified
    July, 2008, including changes identified at that time.

    -   Mobile Servicing System with Remote Manipulator (Canadarm) and
        Dextrous Manipulator (Dextre)

Logistics vehicles:

-   Shuttle, Orion CEV, ATV, HTV, Soyuz, and Progress. Each vehicle
    should connect in a secure but temporary manner at the appropriate
    location (s) on the ISS.

[Basic Workmanship]{.underline}

-   No seams, glue marks, or sanding scratches

-   Uniform construction

-   Uniform finish 

-   Paint should be smooth and uniform, with no smudges, runs, or
    fingerprints

-   Decals should be of uniform finish and have no film showing

[Accuracy]{.underline}

-   Scale should be constant over the entire model and precisely match
    provided drawings 

-   Detailing is uniform over the entire model

-   Surface textures and details should replicate the surface finishes
    and details of the ISS

-   Colors and markings should replicate the appearance of ISS

-   Markings should be accurately detailed to replicate NASA, US, ESA,
    Japanese, Canadian and other markings as they appear on the actual
    vehicle

-   Each ISS element (module, truss segment, etc.) shall be labeled with
    its formal component name, e.g. Node1/Unity. Component labels shall
    not detract from the scale appearance of the model.

-   Noticeable exterior details should be replicated

[Functionality]{.underline}

-   Solar arrays, radiators and remote manipulators should
    swivel/turn/move permitting repositioning as on the real ISS

-   When moved to a position, the solar array, radiator or remote
    manipulator should maintain that position

-   Modules should be as on the real vehicle and permit relocation as
    the ISS configuration may change during the remainder of the
    assembly phase.  

-   Transport vehicles (Shuttle, CEV, ATV, Progress, Soyuz, HTV) shall
    be designed for scale appearance, secure attachment, ease of
    placement, and ease of removal

[Physical Support]{.underline}

-   A secure stand which permits the model to be displayed on a
    tabletop, and which permits movable components to be repositioned

-   The stand shall properly support the model so that components do not
    sag over time

-   The stand shall be professional in appearance but should not detract
    from the model.

-   The stand should include a nameplate identifying the model by name
    and scale.

[Transportability]{.underline}

-   The model shall be designed so that it can be transported safely

-   Minimal disassembly should be required in order to move the model
    from one location to another

-   Disassembleable components should be designed for quick disassembly
    and reassembly, and without causing any damage

-   Disassembly should be facilitated and components sized so that the
    model can be transported as checked baggage on airlines

-   Transportation cases/boxes should permit safe handling, shipping and
    transportation with no damage incurred 

[Enhancements/options]{.underline}

-   The offerror may identify enhancements to the basic
    requirements that can be provided and any costs associated with such
    enhancements. Examples include: Scale EVA astronauts, handrails,
    trunnion pins, docking targets and other small details, module
    interiors, functioning hatches, functioning docking/berthing
    systems, materials of enhanced durability (e.g. metal vs. plastic
    features), etc.

[Past Experience]{.underline}

-   Documented evidence of past experience in modeling complex,
    technical subjects should be provided. Evidence may include
    examples, photographs, testimonials, and/or designer/company/project
    histories.

[Availability/Schedule/Reliability]{.underline}

-   The availability and schedule of availability shall be considered.
    For instance, if the ISS model being procured is based on existing
    model plans, molds, dies, etc, which enhances the ability to provide
    an accurate model on a timely basis. Or if the model is based on an
    accurate prototype model that has already been created. If evidence
    can be provided that such examples are already available and can
    serve as accurate templates for the creation of the procured models,
    this shall be evaluated positively.
