**Award Fee Plan**

***(Revision 7)***

**I. Introduction**

This introduction is for general information; to the extent that it is
incomplete or inconsistent with respect to the text of this plan, the
latter shall control.

The award fee arrangement outlined in this plan has been established to
motivate the Contractor to strive for excellence in managerial,
technical, schedule, cost and subcontracting performance. Through this
plan, the Contractor can earn award fee from a minimum as set forth in
the base fee to the maximum amounts stated in clause B.1 of this
contract. Effective October 1, 1999 two new award fee pools and a base
fee pool are created for Exhibit A contract changes definitized or
authorized after October 1, 1999. The pools are for technical and cost
performance and base fee for the period FY 2000 forward entitled FY2000
Forward Technical Performance Pool, FY2000 Forward Cost Performance
Pool, and Base Fee, respectively.

This plan calls for a periodic evaluation of Contractor Exhibit A
"on-ground" performance in accordance with the factors called out in
Section IV beginning in Fiscal Year 1996 and concluding with the final
evaluation utilizing the dollars in Table V.B.1 in December 2002, and a
final evaluation utilizing the dollars in Tables V.B.2 and V.B.3 in
December 2003. The Exhibit D effort will be evaluated periodically in
accordance with the factors called out in Section IV beginning in Fiscal
Year 1999 and ending in FY 2001. The FY 2000 Forward Technical and Cost
Performance Pools will be evaluated periodically beginning in fiscal
Year 2000. In addition, separate periodic evaluations of "on-orbit"
performance will begin in Fiscal-Year 2000 and conclude in 2004.

Exhibit A and Exhibit D performance evaluations will be performed by a
single Performance Evaluation Board (PEB), which will recommend scores
to the Fee Determination Official (FDO). Each periodic decision of the
FDO will result in fee dollars earned which are equivalent to the
available fee dollars in each pool multiplied by the final score as a
percentage, with the exception of Base Fee, which is addressed in
paragraph III.G below.

"On-orbit" evaluations will be performed by a "super board" independent
from the PEB. This board will recommend a score to the Performance
Incentive Determination Official (PIDO). Each periodic PIDO
determination will be assessed against a percentage of earned Exhibit A
"on-ground" performance dollars which are placed at risk. Any dollars
retained during each on-orbit period become final and are no longer
subject to be taken back. Fee earned for the FY2000 Forward Cost and
Technical Performance pools, Base Fee, and for Exhibit D effort is not
subject to any "take-back" provisions as set forth in Tables V.B2, V.B3,
V.B4, and V.B5.

> NAS15-10000

Modification 1081

Any changes to this award fee plan will be made via a bilateral contract
modification, except for Exhibit A on-ground areas of emphasis and
weightings, which are established unilaterally by the Government.

A hypothetical example of how this plan will operate over the lifetime
of the contract is shown in Exhibit A of this Award Fee Plan.

II. **Organizational Structure**

A. [Performance Evaluation Board]{.underline}

The PEB will evaluate the Contractor's performance as related to the
factors listed in Section IV. At the end of each six-month evaluation
period (the schedule for the six-month evaluation periods is identified
in Tables V.B.1, V.B.2, V.B.3, V.B.4, and V.B.5), the PEB will prepare a
written report of its evaluation which shall include recommendations as
to the adjective rating and numerical score to be assigned to the
Contractor's performance during that evaluation period for Exhibit A and
Exhibit D.

B. [Performance Monitors]{.underline}

1\. NASA performance monitors shall monitor, evaluate and assess
Contractor's performance in assigned areas and discuss the evaluation
results with contractor counterparts as appropriate. Additionally, the
performance monitors shall use, at their discretion, evaluations and
assessments from NASA officials in preparing reports on assigned areas.
The performance monitor will periodically prepare reports for the PEB.

2\. The PEB Chair may change monitor assignments at any time without
advance notice to the Contractor.

C. [Fee Determination Official]{.underline}

1\. All Exhibit A on-ground and Exhibit D performance recommendations
made by the PEB will be considered by the Fee Determination Official
(FDO). The Deputy Associate Administrator for the International Space
Station Program will serve as the FDO. The FDO, after considering
available pertinent information and recommendations, shall make a
determination in accordance with the provisions of this plan.

2\. The FDO shall appoint the PEB Chair and Members.

D. [Super Board]{.underline}

An evaluation "super board," separate from the PEB described in
paragraph II.A above, referred to in the fourth paragraph of the
Introduction, shall be appointed for the purpose of evaluating on-orbit
performance as related to evaluation milestones. It is intended that the
super board provide an independent assessment of the Contractor's
on-orbit performance. To this end, the PIDO shall seek to include
non-governmental members when appointing the super board (e.g. academia,
Vest committee members). The Performance Incentive Determining Official
(PIDO) is the Deputy Associate Administrator for the International Space
Station Program. The super board may be supported in its collection of
performance data for evaluation purposes by NASA performance monitors or
other individuals at the discretion of the PIDO.

> NAS15-10000

Modification 1081

E. [Performance Incentive Determination Official (PIDO)]{.underline}

1\. All on-orbit performance recommendations made by the super board
will be considered by the PIDO. The PIDO, after considering available
pertinent information and recommendations, shall make a determination in
accordance with the provisions of this plan.

2\. The PIDO shall appoint the super board Chair and Members. The
Contractor will be notified of the appointment and changes to the super
board Chair and Membership.

#### III. Evaluation Procedures

A. [Interim Exhibit A On-Ground, FY 2000 Forward Technical and Cost
Performance Pools, and Exhibit D Performance Evaluations]{.underline}

All Exhibit A on-ground (except for the FGB) and FY 2000 Forward Cost
Performance Pool evaluations will be interim in nature. All FY 2000
Forward Technical Performance Pool evaluations, and Base Fee (interim if
overall score is 60 or below as set forth in VIII.A) are final in nature
in that they are not subject to on-orbit take back provisions. However,
unearned dollars from these pools will be available for final evaluation
upward only. All Exhibit D performance evaluations will be final in
nature. A determination of the dollars earned for each evaluation period
will be made by the FDO within 45 days after the end of the period.
Procedures to be followed in monitoring, assessing, and evaluating
Contractor performance during each period, are described below.

1\. No later than 45 calendar days prior to the start of each evaluation
period, the Contractor may submit to the Contracting Officer recommended
areas of emphasis and weightings for the ensuing evaluation period that
are within the general factors listed in Section IV of this plan.
Consideration will be given to the Contractor's recommendations;
however, it is the Government's responsibility to establish the specific
areas of emphasis for each evaluation period.

2\. No later than 30 days prior to the start of each new six-month
evaluation period, the Contractor will be notified by the Contracting
Officer of the selected areas of emphasis and weightings for that
period. Emphasis will be directed at particular areas under the contract
which appear to the Government to be deserving of special attention and
will be used in judging the Contractor's performance. These areas of
emphasis will not necessarily cover the entire spectrum of performance
that will be evaluated in determining award fee dollars earned. Other
pertinent factors included under the contract and general factors
bearing upon overall performance will be considered as the facts and
circumstances of each period may require.

3\. The Contractor shall be apprised of a general assessment of his
performance at the mid-point of the period, and at such other times as
may be deemed appropriate. It shall be the purpose of these meetings to
discuss any specific areas where the Contractor has excelled, and where
future Contractor emphasis may be necessary.

> NAS15-10000

Modification 1081

4\. Promptly after the end of each six-month evaluation period, the PEB
shall meet to consider all the performance information it has obtained.
At the meeting, the PEB will summarize its preliminary findings and
recommendations in the Performance Evaluation Board Report (PEBR).

5\. The Contractor may furnish a separate self-evaluation report for
Exhibit A and Exhibit D within 10 calendar days after the expiration of
each evaluation period. These self-evaluation reports shall not exceed
20 pages in length each. The PEB will not submit its recommendation to
the FDO until (1) the Contractor's self-evaluation report has been
received and considered, or (2) the Contractor has provided written
notification that a self-evaluation report will not be submitted, or (3)
the 10-day period provided for submission of the report has expired.

6\. The PEB Chair will prepare the PEBR for the period and present the
findings and recommendations to the FDO. The reports will include an
adjective rating and a recommended performance score with supporting
documentation. The Contractor will be notified of the PEB evaluation and
recommended ratings and scores, and will be provided copies of the PEBR.
The Contractor may provide additional information for consideration by
the FDO by notifying the PEB Chair of its desire to do so. This is an
opportunity for the Contractor to provide any information which the
Contractor believes is relevant to its performance and which may affect
the FDO's determination. Any additional information should be provided
to the PEB Chair within five (5) calendar days of Contractor
notification of the PEB recommended rating and score. This additional
Contractor information will be provided to the FDO by the PEB Chair.

7\. The FDO will consider the recommendations of the PEB, the PEBR,
information provided by the Contractor, if any, and any other pertinent
information in determining the Exhibit A and Exhibit D performance
scores. The FDO's determination of the scores will be stated in a
written Award Fee Determination.

8\. The Award Fee Determination will be provided to the Contractor by
the Contracting Officer. The Contractor may, after notification of the
FDO's determination, request, through the Contracting Officer, a
briefing by the FDO. This briefing should be conducted no later than 45
days following the conclusion of the award fee period. Award fee
determinations made by the FDO may be appealed by the Contractor to the
NASA Associate Administrator of Space Flight.

Modification 1081

B. [Final Exhibit A Performance Evaluation]{.underline}

After the final on-ground evaluation specified in Table V.B.1, the
Contractor's performance for the Exhibit A on-ground effort (except for
the FGB), will be evaluated to determine whether the Contractor's
performance warrants the award of any remaining unearned fee dollars in
Table V.B.1, in addition to the total amount previously earned as a
result of the periodic evaluations. After the final on-ground evaluation
specified in Table V.B.2, the Contractor's performance on the remaining
Exhibit A on-ground effort will be evaluated to determine whether the
Contractor's performance warrants the award of any remaining unearned
fee dollars in Table V.B.2, in addition to the total amount previously
earned as a result of periodic evaluations These final evaluations will
not result in the reduction in the amount of award fee previously
earned. The process used to determine the final dollars earned for
Exhibit A on-ground performance and the FY 2000 Forward Technical
Performance and unearned Base Fee will be the same as that cited in A.
above.

The Contractor's performance for FGB effort will be evaluated to
coincide with the final acceptance of the FGB. The award fee
determination for this effort will be final and not subject to potential
"take back" from subsequent On-Orbit performance evaluations as provided
for in this attachment, J-1 Award Fee Plan. Additionally, any fee not
earned by the Contractor shall not be rolled forward to the final
on-ground evaluation described above. Available dollars are set forth in
Table V.B1.

C.  [On-Orbit Performance]{.underline}

    1\. The on-orbit performance provisions of this plan have been
    established to recognize on-orbit performance of Contractor
    products. With discrete amounts of fee allocated to specific
    evaluation milestones, the Contractor will have the opportunity to
    retain 100% of the award fee dollars earned under the Exhibit A
    on-ground evaluation procedures (Table.V. B.1). Earnings from
    Exhibit D, Exhibit A, FY 2000 Forward Technical and Cost pools, and
    Base fee are excluded from the on-orbit performance evaluation
    take-back provisions. Six (6) annual evaluation milestones are
    established in the Addendum 1, On-Orbit Award Fee Plan, attached.
    The contractor's annual on orbit assessment will evaluate the
    hardware/software through the period ending October 31st of the
    respective year.

    2\. Areas of emphasis are established as stated in the Addendum 1,
    On-Orbit Award Fee Plan and the On-Orbit Award Fee Plan. These areas
    of emphasis do not necessarily cover the entire spectrum of
    milestone performance that will be evaluated in determining on-orbit
    performance fee retained. Other pertinent factors included under the
    contract, and general factors bearing upon overall milestone
    performance will be considered as the facts and circumstances may
    require.

    3\. In the event that a mutual agreement on areas of emphasis and
    milestone pool weightings cannot be reached, the Contracting Officer
    may resolve areas of disagreement by unilateral determination.

> NAS15-10000

Modification 1081

4\. The maximum potential fee retained through on-orbit performance
shall be equal to the total earned Exhibit A on-ground performance
dollars in Table V. B.1, which excludes Exhibit D earnings and the FY
2000 Forward Technical and Cost Performance and Base Fee dollars set
forth in Tables V. B.2., V. B.3., V. B.4.,and V. B.5. Each on-orbit
performance incentive period evaluation shall be considered final. Award
fee retained for the period will not be subject to "take back."

5\. Promptly after the end of each on-orbit evaluation milestone, the
super board shall meet to consider all the performance information it
has obtained. The board will summarize its findings and recommendations
in a Milestone Evaluation Report (MSER).

6\. The Contractor may furnish a self-evaluation report within 10
calendar days of milestone completion. The board will not submit its
recommendation to the PIDO until (1) the Contractor's self-evaluation
report has been received and considered, or (2) the Contractor has
provided written notification that a self-evaluation report will not be
submitted, or (3) the 10-day period provided for submission of the
report has expired.

7\. The super board's Chair will prepare the MSER and present the
findings and recommendations to the PIDO. The report will include an
adjective rating and a recommended performance score with supporting
documentation. The supporting documentation will reflect the rationale
of the super board in arriving at their score. The Contractor will be
notified of the board's performance evaluation and recommended rating
and score. This notification will include the MSER with its supporting
documentation. The Contractor may provide additional information for
consideration by the PIDO by notifying the Chair of its desire to do so.
This is an opportunity for the Contractor to provide any information
which the Contractor believes is relevant to its performance and which
may affect the PIDO's determination. Any additional information should
be provided to the board Chair within five (5) calendar days of
Contractor notification of the board's evaluation. This additional
Contractor information will be provided to the PIDO by the super board
Chair.

8\. The PIDO will consider the recommendations of the super board, the
information provided by the Contractor, if any, and any other pertinent
information in determining the amount of performance incentive earned.
The PIDO's determination will be stated in a written Performance
Incentive Determination.

9\. The Performance Incentive Determination will be provided to the
Contractor by the Contracting Officer no later than 45 days after the
end of the evaluation period. The Contractor may, after notification of
the PIDO's determination, request, through the Contracting Officer, a
briefing by the PIDO. This briefing should be conducted no later than 45
days following the conclusion of the milestone evaluation. PIDO
determinations may be appealed by the Contractor to the NASA
Administrator.

D.  [Provisional Payments]{.underline}

1\. Provisional payments will be made to the Contractor on a monthly
basis after receipt of the Contractor's first voucher, in accordance
with contract provision G.1. The amount of award fee which may be
provisionally billed each period is 80 percent of the maximum award fee
available for that period (see tables V. B.1, V. B. 2., V. B.3., V.
B.4., and V. B.5). The amount of provisional fee which can be paid
monthly in any evaluation period shall be prorated equally to the number
of months in that period. The Contractor will submit a separate voucher
for provisional fee payments and show Exhibit D fee separately.

2\. All Exhibit A provisional award fee payments will be superseded by
the Exhibit A performance evaluation and determinations at the
conclusion of each performance period. All Exhibit D provisional award
fee payments will be superseded by the performance evaluations and
determinations at the conclusion of each performance period. The
Government will then pay the Contractor, or the Contractor will refund
to the Government, the difference between the final fee determination
and the cumulative provisional fee payments. Any additional payment will
be made via unilateral modification. The Contracting Officer will issue
a unilateral modification to the contract that will recognize any
provisional award fee payments. Payments will be made based upon the
unilateral modification.

3\. Provisional payments are discontinued during any period in which the
Government determines that the total provisional payments made during
that period will substantially exceed the amount which would be paid
based upon the anticipated score for the period.

### E. [FY 2000 Forward Technical Performance Pool]{.underline}

For contract changes definitized after October 1, 1999, and contract
changes authorized after October 1, 1999, the Contractor may earn award
fee dollars for technical performance. The Contractor's Technical
Performance will be evaluated during the periods as specified in Table
V. B.2. Performance will be evaluated to determine whether the
Contractor's performance warrants the award of dollars for
accomplishment in Program Management and Technical Performance,
including Schedule, Quality and Safety. The final evaluation will not
result in the reduction in amount of award fee previously earned.
However, any unearned award fee during the stated evaluation periods
will be carried forward and made available to the Contractor for a final
"look-back" award fee evaluation in addition to the Final Exhibit A
On-Ground performance evaluation as stated in paragraph III.B. above.

> NAS15-10000

Modification 1081

### F. [FY 2000 Forward Cost Performance Pool]{.underline}

### 

### For contract changes definitized after October 1, 1999, and contract changes authorized after October 1, 1999, the Contractor may earn award fee dollars for cost performance. The Contractor's Cost Performance will be evaluated during periods as specified in Table V. B.3. The cost evaluation will focus only on the Contractor's estimate to complete the contract effective October 1, 1999 through the end of the Contract for Exhibit A effort. The cost evaluation will take into consideration the contractor's ability to control, adjust, and accurately project contract costs. 

### [Base Fee]{.underline}

### 

### The available base fee is set forth in Table V. B.4, entitled "Base Fee". The Contractor earns the entire available amount in each period if the overall award fee score is 61 or above. In the event the contractor fails to obtain an overall score of at least 61 in the applicable award fee period, the base fee for the instant period shall be available as part of the final on-ground look back as set forth in III.B. above.

###  

**IV. Evaluation Factors and Weightings for Exhibit A On-Ground
Performance**

A. [Weightings for Exhibit A Evaluation Factors]{.underline}

Weightings for each Exhibit A evaluation factor shall be established as
set forth in paragraph III.A; however, the factors for the FGB
procurement shall not be weighted so as to exceed the proportion of FGB
award fee negotiated (\$839,000) to the total available award fee for
the evaluation period. Weightings for SDB performance shall never exceed
15 percent.

B. [Exhibit A Performance]{.underline}

1\. [Program Management]{.underline}

This factor measures Contractor performance in the overall management of
the program, including support to International Partners. Evaluation
will be made of Contractor performance in providing a balanced,
coordinated and motivated approach to management of technical and
programmatic matters. Such evaluation will include an assessment of the
Contractor performance in the development, analysis, and utilization of
management data, total available resources, and program controls to
effectively manage the project. This will involve assessment of
contractor activities in planning and control, Government Furnished
Property management, contract and subcontract management. Implementation
of adjustments to the project baseline in an efficient manner will be
measured and evaluated.

Modification 1105

All dollars unearned will be subject to a final assessment in
conjunction with the final Exhibit A on-ground performance evaluation.
The final look-back shall be subject to an upward adjustment only.

5.  The maximum number of award fee dollars available by performance
    period is provided in Table V.B.5 for Exhibit D:

**TABLE V.B.5**

**Exhibit D - LOE**

  ------------- -------------- -------------- -------------- --------------
  **Period      **Start Date** **End Date**   **Maximum \$   **Dollars
  Number**                                    Available**    Earned**

  1             10/1/98        3/31/99        \$ 5,145,500   \$ 4,425,130

  2             4/1/99         9/30/99        \$ 5,145,500   \$ 4,270,765

  3             10/1/99        3/31/00        \$ 8,037,301   \$ 6,510,214

  4             4/1/00         9/30/00        \$ 8,037,300   \$6,992,451

  5             10/1/00        3/31/01        \$ 6,105,674   \$5,189,823

  6             4/1/01         9/30/01        \$ 6,105,673   \$5,617,219

  Total                                       \$38,576,948   \$33,005,602
  ------------- -------------- -------------- -------------- --------------

The above estimated hours differ from target hours in Clause B.11, LOE
due to the exclusion of the 212,978 actual hours worked in FY 98 under a
fixed fee arrangement.

The maximum available award fee in the above table is based on the
assumption that the hours worked will correspond with the hours in Table
V. B 5. Should the hours worked represent a variation of +/- 20 percent
from those in the table, then the table will be modified to re-phase the
total hours and the available award fee to the appropriate award fee
period. Neither the total hours nor the total maximum available award
fee shall change as a result of re-phasing.

C. [Dollars Earned]{.underline}

Upon evaluation of the Contractor's performance for each period, the
graded score as a percentage will be applied to the dollars available
per tables V.B.1, V.B.2, V.B.3, and V.B.5 to determine the dollars
earned.

For example:

Period 1 = \$28.40M available dollars with a score of 85% assessed

by the FDO:

\$28.40M X 85% = \$24.14M earned.

For base fee dollars per Table V.B.4, upon evaluation of the
Contractor's performance for each period, the Contractor earns the total
dollars available for each period if the award fee score is 61 or above.

> NAS15-10000

Modification 1105

D. [Dollars Not Earned]{.underline}

1\. All Exhibit A dollars in Tables V. B.1., V. B.2., V.B.3 and dollars
in Table V. B.4. not earned will be subject to a final assessment at the
final on-ground performance evaluation (ref. paragraph III.B). This will
be the numeric difference between the total dollars earned and the total
award fee pool. Any unearned dollars may be available for the lookback.
For the FY2000 Technical pool any unearned award fee shall be available
for final upward lookback evaluation. In addition any unearned base fee
not earned in accordance with Section III.G shall be earned if the
average award fee score is greater than 60.

2\. All Exhibit D dollars not earned will not be rolled forward and will
not become available for future period assessments.

E. [On-Orbit Performance]{.underline}

1\. In each performance milestone evaluation, the PIDO will determine a
numeric score based on assessment of on-orbit performance. That numeric
score (expressed as a percentage) will be applied to the cumulative
on-ground dollars earned (which excludes FY 2000 Forward Technical and
Cost Performance pools, base fee, and Exhibit D) as of the end of the
on-ground evaluation period immediately preceding the determination of
such numeric score. The calculation of dollars shall always be expressed
to the nearest one thousand

.

For example: Milestone B provides 60% of the total award fee pool
dollars available. Assume the cumulative Exhibit A on-ground performance
dollars earned is \$97.045M (out of a total possible of \$120.0M) and

1\. Once the determination has been made of the dollars retained, the
resulting amounts will be recorded in Table V.E above.

2\. All on-orbit dollars not retained from milestones A through F along
with all remaining earned Exhibit A on-ground dollars which have yet to
be made available,

will be subject to a final assessment.

3\. Once the determination of final dollars has been made for the final
milestone, any fee to be refunded to the Government will be calculated
by subtracting the total dollars retained on-orbit as stated in Table
V.E from the total dollars earned on-ground as stated in Table V. B.1.

For example: \$147.071M - \$141.633M = \$5.438M

**VIII. Evaluation Scale**

A. [Award Fee Curve]{.underline}

The award fee rating Table VI.B below includes adjectival ratings as
well as a numerical scoring system of 0-100. For this plan, earned award
fee dollars and dollars to be retained as a result of on-orbit
performance are calculated by applying the total numerical score to
available dollars. For example, a numerical score of 85 yields 85
percent of available award fee dollars. Notwithstanding the preceding,
the contractor will not earn Exhibit A on-ground performance dollars (or
retain any earned dollars through the on-orbit evaluation process for
Exhibit A on-ground), FY 2000 Forward Technical and Cost Performance,
Base fee, or Exhibit D award fee dollars for any evaluation period when
the interim score is "poor/unsatisfactory" (less than 61). Further, any
Exhibit A on-ground, FY 2000 Forward Technical and Cost Performance or
Exhibit D performance factor receiving a grade of "poor/unsatisfactory"
(less than 61) will be assigned zero dollars for the period. On-orbit
performance factors (assembly, operation, and science) will be scored on
a scale of 0-100% in accordance with the on-orbit scoring guidelines
described in Tables V. B.A., V. B.B., and V. B.C of the On-Orbit Award
Fee Plan, Addendum to Attachment J-1.

**I. Introduction**

A. The on-orbit incentive outlined in this plan has been established to
motivate the Contractor to strive for excellence in all aspects of
performance leading to successful on-orbit operations of the space
station. This plan is intended to supplement and amplify the award fee
provisions as stipulated in Attachment J-1, regarding on-orbit
performance. In the event of a conflict, the provisions of the
Attachment J-1, Award Fee Plan shall prevail.

B. This plan provides the identification of, the number of, the timing
of, and the weighting of the evaluation milestones. It further defines
the "Areas of Emphasis" that are associated with each of the evaluation
periods.

**II. Approach/Objectives**

Achieving satisfactory on-orbit performance is absolutely essential. The
approach used in this plan is to provide a simple and easy to understand
set of Areas of Emphasis, which define the critical performance
parameters at selected milestones, as well as the corresponding criteria
by which the contractor's performance will be scored. The objective is
to promote quality by clearly identifying the primary Program goals in a
manner which may be easily understood by the contractor personnel
charged with doing a quality job.

**III. Evaluation Procedures**

A. The methodology for on-orbit performance evaluation is per Attachment
J-1, Paragraph III.C. Paragraph IV. B, below, further describes three
areas of emphasis against which on-orbit performance will be evaluated.
Within each of the three areas of emphasis, critical parameters and
specific criteria have been identified to serve as the focus of
attention and the basis for evaluating performance. The Exhibits provide
the detailed listing of areas of emphasis, the relative importance of
these three areas of emphasis, as well as the corresponding on-orbit
performance criteria for each of the evaluation periods.

B. Award fee performance assessments of station systems and components
are against planned station operation for each individual evaluation
period. Station level specification requirements are not fully imposed
until Assembly Complete.

C. The NASA evaluation process will be a qualitative assessment of how
well the Contractor performed to the areas of emphasis, critical
parameters and specific criteria for the period being evaluated. If the
systems and components are found to be performing outside of specified
requirements or planned operational capability, there is valid cause for
adjusting the Contractor's score. Conversely, earned on-ground award fee
shall not be subject to reduction in the on-orbit process if specified
requirements or planned operational capabilities are met.

Milestone completion for Milestone A is defined as "the docking event."
Milestone completion for milestones B through Final are defined by the
date.

**B. Evaluation Factors**: (Reference Attachment J-1, paragraph IV. C.)

The areas of emphasis that will form the basis for the critical
parameters against which on-orbit performance will be judged are:

+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
| -   Assembly configuration completed as planned, within mission       |
|     limitations (Table V. B.A)                                        |

**VI. Scoring Methodology and Fee Calculation**

A. The score for each milestone is calculated by multiplying the
weighting for each area of emphasis (assembly, operation, or science) by
its individual score (ranging from 0 - 100%), then adding the 3 results.
The result of adding the 3 results together is the total score for that
milestone. The score is than applied to the Award Fee Curve in
Attachment J-1, Section VI.A.

*The following example depicts the scoring method*:

  ----------------------------------------------- -------------------- ---
  An Assembly weighting of 40% multiplied by a    .40 X .78 = .31      
  score of 78% \-\-\-\-\--                                             

  An Operation weighting of 50% multiplied by a   .50 X .87 = .43      
  score of 87% \-\-\-\-\--                                             

  A Science weighting of 10% multiplied by a      .[10 X .60 =         
  score of 60% \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\--                .06]{.underline}     

                                                  Total Score = .80\*  
  ----------------------------------------------- -------------------- ---

[\*This score is then applied to the Award Fee Curve]{.underline}***.***

**VII. Contingency Provisions**

A**.** Failures/problems that would have been discovered prior to flight
through more extensive environmental testing or interface testing that
was eliminated or excluded because of Program cost/schedule constraints
will be mitigating factors when evaluating scores. The unavailability of
adequate spares will also be considered a mitigating factor when
evaluating any resulting failures/problems. The Contractor's evaluation
score will not be reduced for problems caused by the Government,
International Partners, acts-of-God, or for problems where the
Contractor is not the source of the problem.

B. Exceedences, anomalies, discrepancies or failures induced by external
interfaces, e.g. crew, shuttle, ground systems, or external
communications operating outside of specified requirements, interface
limits or related operational constraints shall not be cause for reduced
evaluation scores, except in the case where an out-of-specification
operation was necessitated by a prior failure of a contractor provided
item.

C. Evaluation scores shall not be reduced as a result of the failure of
Government or International Partner hardware/software/services to
perform as specified or intended. Hardware/software built and previously
delivered by the Contractor under this contract shall be excluded from
the definition of "Government hardware" for purposes of the Contractor's
performance evaluation. Hardware/spares not built and delivered under
this Prime contract shall be included in the definition of "Government
hardware" for purposes of Contractor's performance. For spares that were
qualified under the Prime contract but not purchased under the Prime
contract, the Contractor will be responsible for deficiencies related to
design, but not responsible for deficiencies related to materials or
workmanship.

> NAS15-10000

Modification 1081

D. If, prior to provisional DD250, during on-ground processing for
launch, the Contractor has reason to believe that an item of
hardware/software has failed or is not in a flight ready condition, then
the Contractor shall give immediate notice to NASA. If NASA elects to
continue, and degraded performance results from the identified
condition, NASA shall not reduce the Contractor\'s on-orbit evaluation
score for the subject hardware/software item.

E. Failures beyond the reliability and maintainability limits of the
system shall not be cause for lowered evaluation scores***.***

**VIII. Changes**

Any changes to this plan will be made via bilateral contract
modification

**IX. Precedence**

This plan is intended to supplement and amplify the award fee provisions
as stipulated in Attachment J-1. In the event of a conflict, the
provisions of the Award Fee Plan shall prevail.

**X. Denied Opportunity**

If, through no fault of the Contractor, any flight is delayed beyond its
estimated (contract assembly sequence) date plus 3 months OR beyond the
estimated date of the performance milestone (paragraph IV, above),
whichever date occurs first, the Contractor will be evaluated on the
performance of the flights accomplished before the delay resulting in
the incomplete milestone. The amount of fee subject to retention through
the on-orbit evaluation process will be that percentage equivalent to
the percentage of the milestone completed OR 100% of the available fee
if the estimated date of the end of the performance milestone occurred
first. The interim amount available for retention will be determined by
multiplying the percentage of flights completed by the cumulative
on-ground performance dollars earned to date. The result is then
multiplied by the weighting designated for the milestone. The evaluation
of any interim milestone which is a result of the operation of the
clause will be in accordance with this on-orbit award fee addendum.
Deferred fee, if any, will be made available for a final milestone
performance evaluation of the segment on-orbit after an additional 3
months (for a total of 6 months delay) OR the estimated date of the
performance milestone, whichever date occurs first. For example:

f flight 4R.1 were delayed 3 months, the percentage of the completed
milestone subject to evaluation would be 3 completed flights out of a
total of 11 (27.3%).

(27.3% X 88.565M Cum earned\*) X 20% milestone weighting = \$4.836M

The fee deferred from the above interim evaluation (72.7%) would be
evaluated for retention 3 months later, applied against the milestone
weighting.

(72.7% X 88.565M Cum earned\*) X 20% milestone weighting = \$12.877M

\* Cum dollars taken from Exhibit 'A' of Attachment J-1

The following graph and examples depict the operation of the above
paragraph:

Modification 1081

![](media/image1.wmf)

Further, Boeing and NASA will enter into negotiations of a revised
flight/assembly schedule and associated on-orbit milestones which will
be added to the contract through a bilateral modification.

**XI. Performance During Sustaining Engineering**

In the event that NASA fails to contract for sustaining engineering (for
the period of performance that is the concurrent period of performance
for the delivery of the ISS assembly complete plus 12 months) from the
Contractor (reference the SE definition, below,) the Contractor's award
fee earned on-ground but not retained through on-orbit evaluation will
not be subject to further evaluation or take back after the date that
sustaining engineering is ended.

For purposes of this clause, sustaining engineering applies to
Contractor-provided hardware and software items and to the system
analysis to facilitate anomaly isolation and system performance
assessments which includes non-contractor provided hardware and
software. Sustaining engineering is defined as the engineering
responsibility for flight hardware and software after delivery to the
launch site. This is limited to launch processing support; analysis of
vehicle performance; maintenance of system analytical models; and
development of software modifications.

[CRITICAL PARAMETERS/ SPECIFIC CRITERIA]{.underline}:

The critical parameters and specific criteria to serve as the focus of
attention and the basis for judging performance as follows:

1\) The elements to be assembled on-orbit are listed in the first column
in the table below. Emphasis is placed on the ability for each
successive arriving launch package to be successfully mated and
integrated with the previous stage. Each stage on-orbit is ready to
accept the next assembly with respect to physical and functional
configuration.

2\) The systems/subsystems/components planned to operate are listed in
the second column. Emphasis is placed on the ability for each stage to
be successfully activated, with its systems operating as planned for
this stage of assembly. Each stage on-orbit will operate and survive
until the next launch package or re-supply mission is successfully
integrated.

3\) The science capabilities planned to be supported are listed in the
third column. Emphasis is placed on the ability to provide power, data
handling, and overall environment necessary to conduct science. The
Contractor will not be judged for the success/failure of the science
itself.
