SECTION C. DESCRIPTION/SPECIFICATIONS/STATEMENT OF WORK

C.1 SPECIFICATION/STATEMENT OF WORK

The purpose of the Commercial Crew Program (CCP) is to facilitate the development of a U.S.

commercial crew space transportation capability with the goal of achieving safe, reliable and cost

effective access to and from low Earth orbit (LEO) including the International Space Station (ISS)

no later than 2017. Once the capability is matured and available, NASA intends to purchase

commercial crew transportation services to meet its ISS crew rotation and emergency return needs.

NASA is using a two-phased acquisition to certify fully integrated Crew Transportation Systems

(CTS) that meet specified NASA safety and ISS requirements and standards, and begin missions to

the ISS. Phase 1, the Certification Products Contract (CPC), requires delivery and disposition of

specified early lifecycle plans and products that address CTS compliance with NASA’s standards

and requirements for an ISS design reference mission. The CPC deliverables mature in parallel

with the maturation of the CTS design. Phase 2, the Commercial Crew Transportation Capability

(CCtCap), is the requirement of this contract as described below.

Requirements:

The Contractor shall complete the design, development, test, evaluation, and certification of an

integrated CTS capable of transporting NASA crew to and from the ISS, in accordance with the

design reference missions and the certification standards and requirements specified in this

contract. Certification of the CTS shall be determined by NASA. The Contractor shall provide

special studies for risk reduction and other purposes related to its CTS, to the extent ordered under

CLIN 003 of this contract. The Contractor shall also provide complete, initial Post Certification

Missions to and from ISS including ground, launch, on-orbit, return and recovery operations, as

ordered by IDIQ tasks under this contract.

(a) The Contractor shall provide all facilities, resources, personnel, items or services necessary to

perform the requirements specified in Section B, Supplies or Services and Prices/Costs (except for

Government furnished property as listed in clause G.6, NFS 1852.245-76, List Of Government

damage to or loss of equipment or property, or damage to the environment. NASA's safety

priority is to protect: (1) the public, (2) astronauts and pilots, (3) the NASA workforce (including

Contractor employees working on NASA contracts), and (4) high-value equipment and property.

(b) The Contractor shall take all reasonable safety and occupational health measures consistent

with standard industry practice in performing this contract. The Contractor shall comply with all

Federal, State, and local laws applicable to safety and occupational health and with the safety and

occupational health standards, specifications, reporting requirements, and any other relevant

requirements of this contract.

(c) The Contractor shall take, or cause to be taken, any other safety, and occupational health

measures the Contracting Officer may reasonably direct. To the extent that the Contractor may be

entitled to an equitable adjustment for those measures under the terms and conditions of this

contract, the equitable adjustment shall be determined pursuant to the procedures of the Changes

clause of this contract; provided, that no adjustment shall be made under this Safety and Health

clause for any change for which an equitable adjustment is expressly provided under any other

clause of the contract.

(d) The Contracting Officer may notify the Contractor in writing of any noncompliance with this

clause and specify corrective actions to be taken. In situations where the Contracting Officer

price of said items is allotted.

(b) The Contractor agrees to perform or have performed work on the items specified in paragraph

(a) of this clause up to the point at which, if this contract is terminated pursuant to the Termination

for Convenience of the Government clause of this contract, the total amount payable by the

Government (including amounts payable for subcontracts and settlement costs) pursuant to

paragraphs (f) and (g) of that clause would, in the exercise of reasonable judgment by the

Contractor, approximate the total amount at the time allotted to the contract. The Contractor is

not obligated to continue performance of the work beyond that point. The Government is not

obligated in any event to pay or reimburse the Contractor more than the amount from time to time

allotted to the contract, anything to the contrary in the Termination for Convenience of the

Government clause notwithstanding.

(c) (1) It is contemplated that funds presently allotted to this contract will cover the work to be

performed until December 15, 2014.

(2) If funds allotted are considered by the Contractor to be inadequate to cover the work to be

performed until that date, or an agreed date substituted for it, the Contractor shall notify the

Contracting Officer in writing when within the next 60 days the work will reach a point at which, if

the contract is terminated pursuant to the Termination for Convenience of the Government clause

of this contract, the total amount payable by the Government (including amounts payable for

subcontracts and settlement costs) pursuant to paragraphs (f) and (g) of that clause will

approximate 75 percent of the total amount then allotted to the contract.

(3) (i) The notice shall state the estimate when the point referred to in paragraph (c) (2) of

this clause will be reached and the estimated amount of additional funds required to continue

performance to the date specified in paragraph (c) (1) of this clause, or an agreed date substituted

for it.

(ii) The Contractor shall, 60 days in advance of the date specified in paragraph (c) (1)

of this clause, or an agreed date substituted for it, advise the Contracting Officer in writing as to the

estimated amount of additional funds required for the timely performance of the contract for a

further period as may be specified in the contract or otherwise agreed to by the parties.

(4) If, after the notification referred to in paragraph (c) (3) (ii) of this clause, additional funds

are not allotted by the date specified in paragraph (c) (1) of this clause, or an agreed date

substituted for it, the Contracting Officer shall, upon the Contractor’s written request, terminate

this contract on that date or on the date set forth in the request, whichever is later, pursuant to the

Termination for Convenience of the Government clause.

(d) When additional funds are allotted from time to time for continued performance of the work

under this contract, the parties shall agree on the applicable period of contract performance to be

covered by these funds. The provisions of paragraphs (b) and (c) of this clause shall apply to

these additional allotted funds and the substituted date pertaining to them, and the contract shall be

modified accordingly.
NNK14MA74C - Commercial Crew Transportation Capability (CCtCap) Contract

Page 31 of 112

(e) If, solely by reason of the Government's failure to allot additional funds in amounts sufficient

for the timely performance of this contract, the Contractor incurs additional costs or is delayed in

the performance of the work under this contract, and if additional funds are allotted, an equitable

adjustment shall be made in the price or prices (including appropriate target, billing, and ceiling

prices where applicable) of the items to be delivered, or in the time of delivery, or both.

(f) The Government may at any time before termination, and, with the consent of the Contractor,

after notice of termination, allot additional funds for this contract.

(g) The provisions of this clause with respect to termination shall in no way be deemed to limit the

rights of the Government under the default clause of this contract. The provisions of this

Limitation of Funds clause are limited to the work on and allotment of funds for the items set forth

in paragraph (a) of this clause. This clause shall become inoperative upon the allotment of funds

for the total price of said work except for rights and obligations then existing under this clause.

(h) Nothing in this clause shall affect the right of the Government to terminate this contract

pursuant to the Termination for Convenience of the Government clause of this contract.

of the Contractor’s insurance or financial capability required under paragraph (f) below. This

reciprocal waiver of claims shall not apply to rights and obligations arising from the application of

any of the other clauses in the contract or to rights and obligations arising from activities that are

not within the scope of this contract.

(2) Pursuant to paragraph (c)(2), the Contractor shall extend this waiver of claims to its

Related Entities by requiring them, by contract or otherwise, to waive all claims against the

Government and its Related Entities. For avoidance of doubt, the Contractor shall require its

Passengers and Commercial Cargo Customers, as defined in clause H.23 of this contract, to waive

claims against the Government and the Government’s Related Entities; however, the Government

does not waive such claims against Passengers or Commercial Cargo Customers.

damage to all on orbit ISS structures, modules, and systems required for functionality of the ISS,

during Launch Services, Reentry Services, or transportation to, from, in proximity of, or docking

with the ISS under this contract; and (b) damage or loss resulting from the willful misconduct of

the Government or its employees. For purposes of this paragraph (f), “preparation” of a Launch

Vehicle or Transfer Vehicle includes test, assembly, integration or operations of the Launch

Vehicle, Transfer Vehicle or their Payloads on a Government installation. Such insurance shall

be an amount up to $100 million, or the maximum amount available in the market at reasonable

cost, subject to approval by the Contracting Officer. Financial capability, if authorized by the

Contracting Officer, shall be in the amount of $100 million. The Contractor shall provide

acceptable evidence of the insurance or financial capability to the Contracting Officer, subject to

Contracting Officer approval. Insurance policies shall name the United States Government as an
NNK14MA74C - Commercial Crew Transportation Capability (CCtCap) Contract

additional insured party. Once approved by the Contracting Officer, insurance policies may not

be modified or canceled without the prior, written approval of the Contracting Officer.

workforce. As a minimum, the program shall provide for preemployment, reasonable suspicion,

random, post-accident, and periodic recurring (follow-up) testing of Contractor employees in

sensitive positions for use, in violation of applicable law or Federal regulation, of alcohol or a

controlled substance. The Contractor may establish its testing or rehabilitation program in

cooperation with other Contractors or organizations.

(2) This clause neither prohibits nor requires the Contractor to test employees in a foreign

country. If the Contractor chooses to conduct such testing, this clause does not authorize the

Contractor to violate foreign law in conducting such testing.

disqualification, or dismissal of any employee in a sensitive position in any instance where a test

conducted and confirmed under the Contractor's program indicates that such individual has used,

in violation of applicable law or Federal regulation, alcohol or a controlled substance.

(2) The Contractor's program shall further prohibit any such individual from working in a

sensitive position on a NASA contract, unless such individual has completed a program of

rehabilitation described in paragraph (d) of this clause.

(3) The Contractor's program shall further prohibit any such individual from working in any

sensitive position on a NASA contract if the individual is determined under the Contractor's

rehabilitation program;

(iii) Following such determination, the individual fails to complete such a rehabilitation

program; or

(iv) The individual used a controlled substance or alcohol while on duty.

(d) The Contractor shall institute and maintain an appropriate rehabilitation program which shall,

as a minimum, provide for the identification and opportunity for treatment of employees whose

duties include responsibility for safety-sensitive, security, or National security functions who are

in need of assistance in resolving problems with the use of alcohol or controlled substances.

(e) The requirements of this clause shall take precedence over any state or local Government laws,

rules, regulations, ordinances, standards, or orders that are inconsistent with the requirements of

this clause.

(f) For any collective bargaining agreement, the Contractor will negotiate the terms of its program

with employee representatives, as appropriate, under labor relations laws or negotiated

agreements. Such negotiation, however, cannot change the requirements of this clause.

Employees covered under collective bargaining agreements will not be subject to the requirements

of this clause until those agreements have been modified, as necessary; provided, however, that if

one year after commencement of negotiation the parties have failed to reach agreement, an

impasse will be determined to have been reached and the Contractor will unilaterally implement

the requirements of this clause.

(g) The Contractor shall insert a clause containing all the terms of this clause, including this

paragraph (g), in all subcontracts in which work is performed by an employee in a sensitive

position, except subcontracts for commercial items (see FAR Parts 2 and 12).

(a) Introduction

(1) Government insight provides NASA Commercial Crew Program (CCP) and ISS

Program Management an understanding of the Contractor’s activities to assess the status, critical

paths, and risk associated with successfully completing contract requirements, achieving final

certification, and successfully completing Post Certification Missions. Government insight will

include: Insight, Quality Assurance function, and Joint Test Team (JTT) participation as defined

below.

(2) Government insight is defined as gaining an understanding of the Contractor’s activities

and data through an effective working relationship, inspections and interactions, without approval

or disapproval authority, and provides information for the eventual certification approval.

(i) This clause describes the intended primary working-level interface between the

Contractor and the Government during execution of this contract. It is intended to facilitate an

exchange of information adequate for nominal activities.

(ii) The Government reserves the right to implement remedies for nonconforming

services or work. These remedies are described in clause E.2 52.246-4 Inspection of Services and

Research and Development Work - Fixed-Price (Deviation).

(3) The Contractor shall ensure the Government has insight, into all subcontractors and

suppliers performing or supporting any critical work associated with this contract.

(4) Details of the Contractor’s approach to insight to accomplish items (a)(1), (a)(2) and

(a)(3) above shall be implemented in accordance with DRD 001 Insight Implementation Plan.

(b) Notification

The Contractor shall notify the Commercial Crew Program designee of technical meetings, control

boards, reviews, tests, and areas identified for Government Quality Assurance associated with

certification and Post Certification Mission activities in the mutually agreed timeframe to permit

meaningful Government participation through the entire event, in accordance with DRD 001

Insight Implementation Plan.

(c) Access

(1) The Contractor shall provide the Government and its support services contractor(s),

under suitable protective conditions, access to all Contractor activities associated with certification

and Post Certification Mission activities under this contract. Activities include, but are not

limited to CCT-PLN-1100, Crew Transportation Plan, Appendix C, Insight Areas.

(2) The Contractor shall provide the Government and its support services contractor access

to all data used in performance of this contract, including but not limited to, data associated with

areas of insight identified in CCT-PLN-1100 Appendix C and supporting data/information, and

Page 45 of 112

administrative and management information with the exception of financial information; and any

other information, not used in performance of the contract, related to the Crew Transportation

System (CTS) design, production, and operations to include technical data, supporting

data/information, and administrative and management information with the exception of financial

information.

(3) At a minimum, access to data is the ability for Government and its support services

contractor personnel, both remotely and on-site at the Contractor’s facilities, to locate and review

all data (as defined in (4) directly below) in a useable and readable format.

(4) The Government may use the data to which it has access under this provision solely for

the purposes specified in paragraph (a)(1).

(5) The Contractor shall provide office space co-located on-site, badging, furniture,

telephones, and use of easily accessible fax, data lines, and copy machines, for full-time and

temporary Government personnel and its support services contractor performing insight activities,

in accordance with DRD 001 Insight Implementation Plan.

(d) Joint Test Team Activities

(1) The JTT-related activities will be Contractor-led (reference CCT-PLN-1120, Crew

Transportation Technical Processes, Section 5.3, Flight Test), and shall include active and steady

state Government participation both on site and remotely. The Contractor shall accommodate

Government personnel who will provide embedded insight during the activities identified in (d)

(2). Government JTT members will not provide direction to Contractor personnel on design

changes or procedures, or any other aspect of CTS development, production, or operation.

Government JTT members provide insight only, and will not approve or disapprove any aspect of

the Contractor’s CTS design or performance of the contract. Any action(s) taken by the

Contractor in response to any direction given by any person other than the Contracting Officer

shall be at the Contractor’s risk. The JTT will provide a formal, unambiguous, programmatic

structure for Government operationally focused input to the Contractor. In addition, the

Government lead on the JTT will provide integrated, consolidated operations insight to the CCP.

By its structure, the JTT will prevent unintended, informal Government inputs to the Contractor.

To the maximum extent possible, the JTT will work together and strive to resolve operational

issues at the lowest level.

(2) The Government's JTT insight activities will focus on qualitative assessments of crew

operational interfaces with the vehicle and human-in-the-loop assessments of operational

suitability. These assessments will include, but are not limited to vehicle handling qualities,

situational awareness, workload and operational complexity, usability, cockpit layout, displays

and controls, and flight crew suits. In addition, insight will occur through participation during the

planning and build up phase of ground testing (e.g., simulator training and evaluations, mockup

demonstrations, etc.), during test flights, and during the post-test flight evaluation process.

Insight gained through integrated operations assessments will ultimately feed into NASA’s

verification approval decisions (before test flight) and validation approval decisions (post test

flight).
NNK14MA74C - Commercial Crew Transportation Capability (CCtCap) Contract

Page 46 of 112

(e) Government Quality Assurance (GQA) Functions

(1) The Government will perform the following quality assurance functions: Product

Examination, Process Witnessing, Record Review, Surveillance, and Audit.

(2) GQA functions will be performed for all safety-critical items/processes/products

identified by a risk based analysis (RBA). A RBA is an iterative analysis based on a

comprehensive understanding of the design, development, testing, critical manufacturing /

assembly processes, and operations used to identify areas of risk. The Contractor shall support

the RBA, by providing technical expertise, as required. The definition of safety critical is found

in CCT-REQ-1130, ISS Crew Transportation and Services Requirements Document, and SSP

50808, ISS to Commercial Orbital Transportation Services (COTS) Interface Requirements

Document (IRD).

(f) Result of Insight

(1) Insight should result in an effective working relationship between the Government and

the Contractor leading to a NASA certification of the Contractor’s CTS. Should insight and/or

JTT participation identify non-compliance with CCT-REQ-1130, CCT-PLN-1120, and/or SSP

50808; the terms and conditions of the contract; or a difference in interpretation of test results; or

disagreement with the Contractor’s technical approach; the Government insight team will elevate

the issue through the appropriate CCP boards. Through an effective, functioning relationship, the

Government and Contractor should strive to resolve issues at the lowest working level and

minimize issues elevated to program boards. Program boards will disposition recommendations

in a timely manner and provide oversight resolution if necessary. Resulting board decisions and

direction will be transmitted to the Contractor through the Contracting Officer. If disposition

results in a requirement change, the change clause (I.2, FAR 52.243-1, Changes-Fixed Price)

would take effect. If the Contractor and Contracting Officer disagree on whether the board

disposition provided is within the requirements of the contract, the disputes clause (I.2, FAR

52-233-1, Disputes-Alternate I) is applicable.

(2) The data generated as a result of Government insight may be used, modified, reproduced,

released, performed, displayed, or disclosed within the Government and its support service

contractors under suitable protected conditions. The Government may not, without written

permission of the Contractor, release or disclose the data outside the Government, except as

otherwise required by law, use the technical data for manufacture, or authorize the technical data to

be used by a party outside the Government.

(g) Contractor Responsibility

Notwithstanding the insight set forth in this Clause, the Contractor assumes full performance

responsibility as set forth in this contract. The Government’s insight or JTT participation under

his clause shall not be construed as authorization, endorsement or approval of milestones,

certification or final acceptance or rejection of Post Certification Mission success.

NASA will monitor feed(s) and instruct the Contractor to remove the feed from release to the

public in the event of a privacy concern. For imagery and audio recorded during flight operations

and recovered post-flight, the Contractor shall send a copy of the data to NASA for review. The

Contractor shall not release any video and/or audio with NASA crew members in view until the

NASA review is complete. NASA will inform the Contractor if any data is restricted. Restricted

data cannot be released by the Contractor, either internally or externally, or used in any way. Data

that does not contain NASA crew members may be used by the Contractor after proper

coordination in accordance with paragraph (a) above.

(c) The Contractor shall not use the words "National Aeronautics and Space Administration" or

the letters "NASA" in connection with a product or service in a manner reasonably calculated to

convey any impression that such product or service has the authorization, support, sponsorship, or

endorsement of NASA, which does not, in fact, exist. In addition, the Contractor shall submit in

advance any proposed public use of the NASA name or initials for NASA review and approval.

NASA approval shall be based on applicable law and policy governing the use of the NASA name

and initials. NASA’s approval will not be unreasonably withheld. Use of NASA

emblems/devices (i.e., NASA Seal, NASA Insignia, NASA logotype, NASA Program Identifiers,

and the NASA Flag) is governed by 14 C.F.R. Part 1221. The Contractor shall not publicly use

such emblems/devices without prior NASA review and approval in accordance with such

regulations.

(d) NASA does not endorse or sponsor any commercial product, service, or activity. NASA's

certification of the CTS under this Contract does not constitute certification or endorsement by

NASA that the CTS is safe for public transportation of humans to Low Earth Orbit. NASA’s CTS

certification means the Contractor’s CTS has met NASA’s safety requirements for transporting

NASA or NASA-sponsored crew to the ISS. The Contractor agrees that nothing in this Contract

will be construed to imply that NASA authorizes supports, endorses, or sponsors any product or

service of the Contractor resulting from activities conducted under this Contract.

H.21 POST CERTIFICATION MISSION SUCCESS DETERMINATION

(a) Mission Success Criteria

(1) The Mission Success criteria will be defined on a per mission basis and agreed to by

NASA and the Contractor during the Task Ordering process.

(2) NASA will provide the initial mission success criteria and specific percentages of the

final payment earned for mission performance during the Task Ordering process. The final

payment is defined in clause H.19, Post Certification Mission Payments, Milestones and ATP

Criteria. Any revision to the criteria and payment percentage shall be agreed to at the Mission

Certification Review (MCR). In the event that an agreement cannot be reached, the Contracting

Officer will establish the criteria and payment percentage by the Flight Readiness Review. The

revised criteria will be incorporated into a Task Order revision. The MCR shall include

Contractor plans for providing data to confirm mission success as part of the post flight report.

(3) Mission Success Criteria will be established per the following guidelines:

(i) Criteria will consider the Contractor’s mission capabilities.

(ii) Criteria will consider the Contractor’s performance, independent of NASA’s.

(iii) Criteria will consider ascent aborts or earlier than pre-launch planned

End-Of-Mission timeframe, contingency spacecraft crew support, and inability to dock with the

ISS.

(4) Definitions.

(i) Full Mission Success - meeting all primary objectives and secondary objectives;

(ii) Mission Failure – loss of one or more primary objectives, serious injury or fatality

as defined in H.26, Mishap Reporting, or damage to the ISS;

(iii) Partial mission success – all primary mission objectives satisfied but loss of one or

more secondary mission objectives.

(b) Mission Success Determination

(1) Mission Success Determination will be made using the mission success criteria and the

corresponding data and parameters that are jointly agreed to by NASA and the Contractor.

(2) The Contractor shall submit the relevant data and parameters that provide the most

accurate information on performance of the mission success criteria, at the Mission Integration

Review (MIR). The types of data NASA would consider as relevant information include:

Page 55 of 112

(i) Vehicle data that represents critical systems for all flight phases (such as ascent,

approach, docking, mating, and entry).

(ii) Available launch and orbital vehicle data verifying DRD 203 Vehicle Interface

Definition Document (IDD) environments.

(iii) Closeout photos both on the ground and on orbit documenting CTS configuration at

launch and prior to landing per DRD 214 Imagery and Associated Cataloging.

(iv) Any supplemental data that may support the Contractor’s performance.

(3) If there is data that the Contractor requests NASA to provide (on orbit attached telemetry,

on orbit photos, etc.), the Contractor shall identify that prior to the MCR.

(c) Procedures

(1) The Contracting Officer determines unilaterally whether a mission is considered a

Mission Success, Partial Mission Success, or a Failed Mission. For partial mission success, the

percentage of the final payment earned is based on the agreed to mission success criteria defined in

section (a)(2) of this clause. Within fifteen (15) calendar days from receipt of the preliminary

DRD 209 Post-Flight Assessment Report, the Contracting Officer will either make the Mission

Success determination or inform the Contractor of NASA’s intent to partially withhold final

TO CLIN 001)

SubCLINS 001A and 001B listed in CLIN 001, DDTE/Certification, are delivery milestones

(delivery items). For each delivery milestone, the Contractor may request interim-milestone

financing payments in accordance with FAR 52.232-32, Performance Based Payments.

Milestone events, schedule, price and acceptance criteria are identified in Attachment J-03,

Appendix A, Milestone Acceptance Criteria and Payment Schedule. The sum of

interim-milestone financing payments with each delivery item shall not exceed 90% of that

delivery item price in accordance with FAR 32.1004(b)(2)(ii). Liquidation of performance-based

financing payments will occur once the Government accepts each delivery item.

The ISS DCR associated with the delivery milestone (SubCLIN 001A) will be the DCR associated

with the crewed flight test to ISS. The ISS DCR delivery milestone shall include all work under

CLIN 001that occurs from contract start date through this milestone completion. The delivery

payment for the Certification Review associated with the delivery milestone (SubCLIN 001B) will

include all work under CLIN 001that occurs from this ISS DCR delivery milestone through the

end of the DDTE/Certification.

The Contracting Officer will unilaterally determine the Contractor’s successful accomplishment of

each milestone event. The Contracting Officer’s determination of milestone accomplishment

will be based on the criteria listed in Attachment J-03, Appendix A, Milestone Acceptance Criteria

and Payment Schedule, as well as the Contractor’s compliance with the terms of the contract,

including performance of PWS and deliverable requirements. The delivery-milestone payments

are not financing payments and unlike interim-milestone payments, once made, are not subject to

repayment by the Contractor if the conditions defined in FAR 52.232-32 (j), Special terms

regarding default, apply.

Generally, milestone payment will be paid in succession. All preceding payment events shall be

successfully accomplished before payment will be made for the next payment event, unless the

prior written consent of the Contracting Officer is obtained.

AND DATA OTHER THAN CERTIFIED COST OR PRICING DATA –

MODIFICATIONS. (OCT 2010) (This Clause Is Applicable To The Extent That Only

Subcontractors Are Required To Submit Certified Cost Or Pricing Data)

(a) Exceptions from certified cost or pricing data.

(1) In lieu of submitting certified cost or pricing data for modifications under this contract,

for price adjustments expected to exceed the threshold set forth at FAR 15.403-4 on the date of the

agreement on price or the date of the award, whichever is later, the Contractor may submit a

written request for exception by submitting the information described in the following

subparagraphs. The Contracting Officer may require additional supporting information, but only

to the extent necessary to determine whether an exception should be granted, and whether the price

is fair and reasonable –

(i) Identification of the law or regulation establishing the price offered. If the price is

controlled under law by periodic rulings, reviews, or similar actions of a governmental body,

attach a copy of the controlling document, unless it was previously submitted to the contracting

office.

(ii) Information on modifications of contracts or subcontracts for commercial items.

(A) If --

(1) The original contract or subcontract was granted an exception from

certified cost or pricing data requirements because the price agreed upon was based on adequate

price competition or prices set by law or regulation, or was a contract or subcontract for the

acquisition of a commercial item; and

(2) The modification (to the contract or subcontract) is not exempted based

on one of these exceptions, then the Contractor may provide information to establish that the

modification would not change the contract or subcontract from a contract or subcontract for the

acquisition of a commercial item to a contract or subcontract for the acquisition of an item other

than a commercial item.

(B) For a commercial item exception, the Contractor shall provide, at a minimum,

information on prices at which the same item or similar items have previously been sold that is

adequate for evaluating the reasonableness of the price of the modification. Such information

manufacturer, or reseller. Also explain the basis of each offered price and its relationship to the

established catalog price, including how the proposed price relates to the price of recent sales in

quantities similar to the proposed quantities.

(2) For market-priced items, the source and date or period of the market

quotation or other basis for market price, the base amount, and applicable discounts. In addition,

describe the nature of the market.

(3) For items included on an active Federal Supply Service Multiple Award

Schedule contract, proof that an exception has been granted for the schedule item.

(2) The Contractor grants the Contracting Officer or an authorized representative the right to

examine, at any time before award, books, records, documents, or other directly pertinent records

to verify any request for an exception under this clause, and the reasonableness of price. For

items priced using catalog or market prices, or law or regulation, access does not extend to cost or

profit information or other data relevant solely to the Contractor’s determination of the prices to be

offered in the catalog or marketplace.

(b) Requirements for certified cost or pricing data. If the Contractor is not granted an exception

from the requirement to submit certified cost or pricing data, the following applies:

(1) The Contractor shall submit certified cost or pricing data, data other than certified cost or

pricing data, and supporting attachments in accordance with the instruction contained in Table

15-2 of FAR 15.408, which is incorporated by reference with the same force and effect as though it

were inserted here in full text. The instructions in Table 15-2 are incorporated as a mandatory

format to be used in this contract, unless the Contracting Officer and the Contractor agree to a

different format and change this clause to use Alternate I.

(2) As soon as practicable after agreement on price, but before award (except for unpriced

actions), the Contractor shall submit a Certificate of Current Cost or Pricing Data, as prescribed by

FAR 15.406-2.

a part of any one requirement from the Contractor if that requirement exceeds the maximum-order

limitations in paragraph (b) of this section.

(d) Notwithstanding paragraphs (b) and (c) of this section, the Contractor shall honor any order

exceeding the maximum order limitations in paragraph (b), unless that order (or orders) is returned

to the ordering office within 15 days after issuance, with written notice stating the Contractor's

intent not to ship the item (or items) called for and the reasons. Upon receiving this notice, the

Government may acquire the supplies or services from another source.

(End of Clause)

CONTRACTOR (SHORT FORM).

(a) As used in this clause -

"Invention" means any invention or discovery that is or may be patentable or otherwise protectable

under title 35 of the U.S. Code, or any variety of plant that is or may be protectable under the Plant

Variety Protection Act (7 U.S.C. 2321, et seq.)

"Made" means –

(1) When used in relation to any invention other than a plant variety, the conception or first

actual reduction to practice of the invention; or

(2) When used in relation to a plant variety, that the Contractor has at least tentatively

determined that the variety has been reproduced with recognized characteristics.

"Nonprofit organization" means a university or other institution of higher education or an

organization of the type described in section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954 (26

U.S.C. 501(c)) and exempt from taxation under section 501(a) of the Internal Revenue Code (26

U.S.C. 501(a)), or any nonprofit scientific or educational organization qualified under a State

nonprofit organization statute.

"Practical application" means to manufacture, in the case of a composition of product; to practice,

in the case of a process or method; or to operate, in the case of a machine or system; and, in each

case, under such conditions as to establish that the invention is being utilized and that its benefits

are, to the extent permitted by law or Government regulations, available to the public on

reasonable terms.

"Subject invention" means any invention of the Contractor made in the performance of work under

this contract.

(b) Contractor's rights.

(1) Ownership. The Contractor may retain ownership of each subject invention throughout

the world in accordance with the provisions of this clause.

(2) License.

(i) The Contractor shall retain a nonexclusive royalty-free license throughout the

world in each subject invention to which the Government obtains title, unless the Contractor fails

to disclose the invention within the times specified in paragraph (c) of this clause. The

Contractor's license extends to any domestic subsidiaries and affiliates within the corporate

structure of which the Contractor is a part, and includes the right to grant sublicenses to the extent

the Contractor was legally obligated to do so at contract award. The license is transferable only
NNK14MA74C - Commercial Crew Transportation Capability (CCtCap) Contract

Page 84 of 112

with the written approval of the agency, except when transferred to the successor of that part of the

Contractor's business to which the invention pertains.

(ii) The Contractor's license may be revoked or modified by the agency to the extent

necessary to achieve expeditious practical application of the subject invention in a particular

country in accordance with the procedures in FAR 27.302(i)(2) and 27.304-1(f).

(c) Contractor's obligations.

(1) The Contractor shall disclose in writing each subject invention to the Contracting Officer

within 2 months after the inventor discloses it in writing to Contractor personnel responsible for

patent matters. The disclosure shall identify the inventor(s) and this contract under which the

subject invention was made. It shall be sufficiently complete in technical detail to convey a clear

understanding of the subject invention. The disclosure shall also identify any publication, on sale

(i.e., sale or offer for sale), or public use of the subject invention, or whether a manuscript

describing the subject invention has been submitted for publication and, if so, whether it has been

accepted for publication. In addition, after disclosure to the agency, the Contractor shall promptly

notify the Contracting Officer of the acceptance of any manuscript describing the subject invention

for publication and any on sale or public use.

(2) The Contractor shall elect in writing whether or not to retain ownership of any subject

invention by notifying the Contracting Officer within 2 years of disclosure to the agency.

However, in any case where publication, on sale, or public use has initiated the 1-year statutory

period during which valid patent protection can be obtained in the United States, the period for

election of title may be shortened by the agency to a date that is no more than 60 days prior to the

end of the statutory period.

(3) The Contractor shall file either a provisional or a nonprovisional patent application or a

Plant Variety Protection Application on an elected subject invention within 1 year after election.

However, in any case where a publication, on sale, or public use has initiated the 1-year statutory

period during which valid patent protection can be obtained in the United States, the Contractor

shall file the application prior to the end of that statutory period. If the Contractor files a

provisional application, it shall file a nonprovisional application within 10 months of the filing of

the provisional application. The Contractor shall file patent applications in additional countries

or international patent offices within either 10 months of the first filed patent application (whether

provisional or nonprovisional) or 6 months from the date permission is granted by the

Commissioner of Patents to file foreign patent applications where such filing has been prohibited

by a Secrecy Order.

(4) The Contractor may request extensions of time for disclosure, election, or filing under

paragraphs (c)(1), (c)(2), and (c)(3) of this clause.

(5) The Contractor may use whatever format is convenient to disclose subject inventions

required in subparagraph (c) (1). NASA prefers that the Contractor use either the electronic or

paper version of NASA Form 1679, Disclosure of Invention and New Technology (Including

Software) to disclose subject inventions. Both the electronic and paper versions of NASA Form
NNK14MA74C - Commercial Crew Transportation Capability (CCtCap) Contract

Page 85 of 112

1679 may be accessed at the electronic New Technology Reporting Web site

http://invention.nasa.gov.

(d) Government's rights –

(1) Ownership. The Contractor shall assign to the agency, on written request, title to any

subject invention –

(i) If the Contractor fails to disclose or elect ownership to the subject invention within

the times specified in paragraph (c) of this clause, or elects not to retain ownership; provided, that

the agency may request title only within 60 days after learning of the Contractor's failure to

disclose or elect within the specified times.

(ii) In those countries in which the Contractor fails to file patent applications within the

times specified in paragraph (c) of this clause; provided, however, that if the Contractor has filed a

patent application in a country after the times specified in paragraph (c) of this clause, but prior to

its receipt of the written request of the agency, the Contractor shall continue to retain ownership in

that country.

(iii) In any country in which the Contractor decides not to continue the prosecution of

any application for, to pay the maintenance fees on, or defend in reexamination or opposition

proceeding on, a patent on a subject invention.

(2) License. If the Contractor retains ownership of any subject invention, the Government

shall have a nonexclusive, nontransferable, irrevocable, paid-up license to practice, or have

practiced for or on its behalf, the subject invention throughout the world.

(e) Contractor action to protect the Government's interest.

(1) The Contractor shall execute or have executed and promptly deliver to the agency all

instruments necessary to –

(i) Establish or confirm the rights the Government has throughout the world in those

subject inventions in which the Contractor elects to retain ownership; and

(ii) Assign title to the agency when requested under paragraph (d) of this clause and to

enable the Government to obtain patent protection and plant variety protection for that subject

invention in any country.

(2) The Contractor shall require, by written agreement, its employees, other than clerical and

nontechnical employees, to disclose promptly in writing to personnel identified as responsible for

the administration of patent matters and in the Contractor's format, each subject invention in order

that the Contractor can comply with the disclosure provisions of paragraph (c) of this clause, and

to execute all papers necessary to file patent applications on subject inventions and to establish the

Government's rights in the subject inventions. The disclosure format should require, as a

minimum, the information required by paragraph (c)(1) of this clause. The Contractor shall
NNK14MA74C - Commercial Crew Transportation Capability (CCtCap) Contract

Page 86 of 112

instruct such employees, through employee agreements or other suitable educational programs, as

to the importance of reporting inventions in sufficient time to permit the filing of patent

applications prior to U.S. or foreign statutory bars.

(3) The Contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer of any decisions not to file a

nonprovisional patent application, continue the prosecution of a patent application, pay

maintenance fees, or defend in a reexamination or opposition proceeding on a patent, in any

country, not less than 30 days before the expiration of the response or filing period required by the

relevant patent office.

(4) The Contractor shall include, within the specification of any United States

nonprovisional patent or plant variety protection application and any patent or plant variety

protection certificate issuing thereon covering a subject invention, the following statement, "This

invention was made with Government support under (identify the contract) awarded by (identify

the agency). The Government has certain rights in the invention."

(5) The Contractor shall provide the Contracting Officer the following:

(i) A listing every 12 months (or such longer period as the Contracting Officer may

specify) from the date of the contract, of all subject inventions required to be disclosed during the

period.

(ii) A final report prior to closeout of the contract listing all subject inventions or

certifying that there were none.

(iii) Upon request, the filing date, serial number and title, a copy of the patent

application, and patent number and issue date for any subject invention in any country in which the

Contractor has applied for patents.

(iv) An irrevocable power to inspect and make copies of the patent application file, by

the Government, when a Federal Government employee is a coinventor.

(f) Reporting on utilization of subject inventions. The Contractor shall submit, on request,

periodic reports no more frequently than annually on the utilization of a subject invention or on

efforts at obtaining utilization of the subject invention that are being made by the Contractor or its

licensees or assignees. The reports shall include information regarding the status of development,

date of first commercial sale or use, gross royalties received by the Contractor, and other data and

information as the agency may reasonably specify. The Contractor also shall provide additional

reports as may be requested by the agency in connection with any march-in proceeding undertaken

by the agency in accordance with paragraph (h) of this clause. The Contractor also shall mark any

utilization report as confidential/proprietary to help prevent inadvertent release outside the

Government. As required by 35 U.S.C. 202(c)(5), the agency will not disclose that information to

persons outside the Government without the Contractor's permission.

(g) Preference for United States industry. Notwithstanding any other provision of this clause,

neither the Contractor nor any assignee shall grant to any person the exclusive right to use or sell
NNK14MA74C - Commercial Crew Transportation Capability (CCtCap) Contract

Page 87 of 112

any subject invention in the United States unless the person agrees that any products embodying

the subject invention or produced through the use of the subject invention will be manufactured

substantially in the United States. However, in individual cases, the requirement for an

agreement may be waived by the agency upon a showing by the Contractor or its assignee that

reasonable but unsuccessful efforts have been made to grant licenses on similar terms to potential

licensees that would be likely to manufacture substantially in the United States, or that under the

circumstances domestic manufacture is not commercially feasible.

(h) March-in rights. The Contractor acknowledges that, with respect to any subject invention in

which it has retained ownership, the agency has the right to require licensing pursuant to 35 U.S.C.

203 and 210(c), and in accordance with the procedures in 37 CFR 401.6 and any supplemental

regulations of the agency in effect on the date of contract award.

(i) Special provisions for contracts with nonprofit organizations. If the Contractor is a nonprofit

organization, it shall –

(1) Not assign rights to a subject invention in the United States without the written approval

of the agency, except where an assignment is made to an organization that has as one of its primary

functions the management of inventions, provided, that the assignee shall be subject to the same

provisions as the Contractor;

(2) Share royalties collected on a subject invention with the inventor, including Federal

employee co-inventors (but through their agency if the agency deems it appropriate) when the

subject invention is assigned in accordance with 35 U.S.C. 202(e) and 37 CFR 401.10;

(3) Use the balance of any royalties or income earned by the Contractor with respect to

subject inventions, after payment of expenses (including payments to inventors) incidental to the

administration of subject inventions for the support of scientific research or education; and

(4) Make efforts that are reasonable under the circumstances to attract licensees of subject

inventions that are small business concerns, and give a preference to a small business concern

when licensing a subject invention if the Contractor determines that the small business concern has

a plan or proposal for marketing the invention which, if executed, is equally as likely to bring the

invention to practical application as any plans or proposals from applicants that are not small

business concerns; provided, that the Contractor is also satisfied that the small business concern

has the capability and resources to carry out its plan or proposal. The decision whether to give a

preference in any specific case will be at the discretion of the Contractor.

(5) Allow the Secretary of Commerce to review the Contractor's licensing program and

decisions regarding small business applicants, and negotiate changes to its licensing policies,

procedures, or practices with the Secretary of Commerce when the Secretary's review discloses

that the Contractor could take reasonable steps to more effectively implement the requirements of

paragraph (i)(4) of this clause.

(j) Communications. The Contractor shall contact the Contracting Officer for any

communications regarding this clause.
NNK14MA74C - Commercial Crew Transportation Capability (CCtCap) Contract

Page 88 of 112

(k) Subcontracts.

(1) The Contractor shall include the substance of this clause, including this paragraph (k), in

all subcontracts for experimental, developmental, or research work to be performed by a small

business concern or nonprofit organization.

(2) The Contractor shall include the clause in the NASA FAR Supplement at 1852.227-70,

New Technology, suitably modified to identify the parties, in all subcontracts, regardless of tier,

for experimental, developmental, research, design, or engineering work to be performed by other

than a small business firm or nonprofit organization.

(3) At all tiers, the patent rights clause must be modified to identify the parties as follows:

references to the Government are not changed, and the subcontractor has all rights and obligations

of the Contractor in the clause. The Contractor shall not, as part of the consideration for awarding

the subcontract, obtain rights in the subcontractor's subject inventions.

(4) In subcontracts, at any tier, the agency, the subcontractor, and the Contractor agree that

the mutual obligations of the parties created by this clause constitute a contract between the

subcontractor and the agency with respect to the matters covered by the clause; provided, however,

that nothing in this paragraph is intended to confer any jurisdiction under the Contract Disputes

Act in connection with proceedings under paragraph (h) of this clause.

(1) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this contract concerning inspection or acceptance,

if any data delivered under this contract are marked with the notices specified in paragraph (g)(3)

or (g) (4) if included in this clause, and use of the notices is not authorized by this clause, or if the

data bears any other restrictive or limiting markings not authorized by this contract, the

Contracting Officer may at any time either return the data to the Contractor, or cancel or ignore the

markings. However, pursuant to 41 U.S.C. 253d, the following procedures shall apply prior to

(i) The Contracting Officer will make written inquiry to the Contractor affording the

Contractor 60 days from receipt of the inquiry to provide written justification to substantiate the

propriety of the markings;

(ii) If the Contractor fails to respond or fails to provide written justification to

substantiate the propriety of the markings within the 60-day period (or a longer time approved in

writing by the Contracting Officer for good cause shown), the Government shall have the right to

cancel or ignore the markings at any time after said period and the data will no longer be made

subject to any disclosure prohibitions.

(iii) If the Contractor provides written justification to substantiate the propriety of the

markings within the period set in paragraph (e)(1)(i) of this clause, the Contracting Officer will

consider such written justification and determine whether or not the markings are to be cancelled

or ignored. If the Contracting Officer determines that the markings are authorized, the Contractor

will be so notified in writing. If the Contracting Officer determines, with concurrence of the head

of the contracting activity, that the markings are not authorized, the Contracting Officer will

furnish the Contractor a written determination, which determination will become the final agency

decision regarding the appropriateness of the markings unless the Contractor files suit in a court of

competent jurisdiction within 90 days of receipt of the Contracting Officer’s decision. The

Government will continue to abide by the markings under this paragraph (e)(1)(iii) until final

resolution of the matter either by the Contracting Officer’s determination becoming final (in which

instance the Government will thereafter have the right to cancel or ignore the markings at any time

and the data will no longer be made subject to any disclosure prohibitions), or by final disposition

of the matter by court decision if suit is filed.

matter by a court of competent jurisdiction, the Contractor is not precluded by paragraph (e) of the

clause from bringing a claim, in accordance with the Disputes clause of this contract, that may

arise as the result of the Government removing or ignoring authorized markings on data delivered

under this contract.

(f) Omitted or incorrect markings.

(1) Data delivered to the Government without any restrictive markings shall be deemed to have

been furnished with unlimited rights. The Government is not liable for the disclosure, use, or

reproduction of such data.

(2) If the unmarked data has not been disclosed without restriction outside the Government, the

Contractor may request, within 6 months (or a longer time approved by the Contracting Officer in

writing for good cause shown) after delivery of the data, permission to have authorized notices

placed on the data at the Contractor’s expense. The Contracting Officer may agree to do so if the

Contractor—

(i) Identifies the data to which the omitted notice is to be applied;

(ii) Demonstrates that the omission of the notice was inadvertent;

(iii) Establishes that the proposed notice is authorized; and

(iv) Acknowledges that the Government has no liability for the disclosure, use, or

reproduction of any data made prior to the addition of the notice or resulting from the omission of

the notice.

(3) If data has been marked with an incorrect notice, the Contracting Officer may—

(i) Permit correction of the notice at the Contractor’s expense if the Contractor identifies

the data and demonstrates that the correct notice is authorized; or

(ii) Correct any incorrect notices.

(g) Protection of limited rights data and restricted computer software.

(1) The Contractor may withhold from delivery qualifying limited rights data or restricted

computer software that are not data identified in paragraphs (b)(1)(i), (ii), and (iii) of this clause.

conditions as are specified in this contract and this clause, the amount of payments and limitations

on payments shall be specified in the contract's description of the basis for payment.

(b) Contractor request for performance-based payment. The Contractor may submit requests for

payment of performance-based payments not more frequently than monthly, in a form and manner

acceptable to the Contracting Officer. Unless otherwise authorized by the Contracting Officer, all

performance-based payments in any period for which payment is being requested shall be included

in a single request, appropriately itemized and totaled. The Contractor's request shall contain the

information and certification detailed in paragraphs (l) and (m) of this clause.

(c) Approval and payment of requests.

(1) The Contractor shall not be entitled to payment of a request for performance-based

payment prior to successful accomplishment of the event or performance criterion for which

payment is requested. The Contracting Officer shall determine whether the event or performance

criterion for which payment is requested has been successfully accomplished in accordance with

the terms of the contract. The Contracting Officer may, at any time, require the Contractor to

substantiate the successful performance of any event or performance criterion which has been or is

represented as being payable.

(2) A payment under this performance-based payment clause is a contract financing payment

under the Prompt Payment clause of this contract and not subject to the interest penalty provisions

of the Prompt Payment Act. The designated payment office will pay approved requests on the

15th day after receipt of the request for performance-based payment by the designated payment

office. However, the designated payment office is not required to provide payment if the

Contracting Officer requires substantiation as provided in paragraph (c)(1) of this clause, or

inquires into the status of an event or performance criterion, or into any of the conditions listed in

paragraph (e) of this clause, or into the Contractor certification. The payment period will not

Page 98 of 112

begin until the Contracting Officer approves the request.

(3) The approval by the Contracting Officer of a request for performance-based payment does

not constitute an acceptance by the Government and does not excuse the Contractor from

performance of obligations under this contract.

(d) Liquidation of performance-based payments.

(1) Performance-based finance amounts paid prior to payment for delivery of an item shall be

liquidated by deducting a percentage or a designated dollar amount from the delivery payment. If

the performance-based finance payments are on a delivery item basis, the liquidation amount for

each such line item shall be the percent of that delivery item price that was previously paid under

performance-based finance payments or the designated dollar amount. If the performance-based

finance payments are on a whole contract basis, liquidation shall be by either predesignated

liquidation amounts or a liquidation percentage.

(2) If at any time the amount of payments under this contract exceeds any limitation in this

contract, the Contractor shall repay to the Government the excess. Unless otherwise determined

by the Contracting Officer, such excess shall be credited as a reduction in the unliquidated

performance-based payment balance(s), after adjustment of invoice payments and balances for any

retroactive price adjustments.

(e) Reduction or suspension of performance-based payments. The Contracting Officer may

reduce or suspend performance-based payments, liquidate performance-based payments by

deduction from any payment under the contract, or take a combination of these actions after

finding upon substantial evidence any of the following conditions:

(1) The Contractor failed to comply with any material requirement of this contract (which

includes paragraphs (h) and (i) of this clause).

(2) Performance of this contract is endangered by the Contractor's -

(i) Failure to make progress; or

(ii) Unsatisfactory financial condition.

(3) The Contractor is delinquent in payment of any subcontractor or supplier under this

contract in the ordinary course of business.

(f) Reserved.

(g) Risk of loss. Before delivery to and acceptance by the Government, the Contractor shall bear

the risk of loss for property, the title to which vests in the Government under this clause, except to

the extent the Government expressly assumes the risk. If any property is lost (see 45.101), the

basis of payment (the events or performance criteria) to which the property is related shall be

deemed to be not in compliance with the terms of the contract and not payable (if the property is
NNK14MA74C - Commercial Crew Transportation Capability (CCtCap) Contract

Page 99 of 112

part of or needed for performance), and the Contractor shall refund the related performance-based

payments in accordance with paragraph (d) of this clause.

(h) Records and controls. The Contractor shall maintain records and controls adequate for

administration of this clause. The Contractor shall have no entitlement to performance-based

payments during any time the Contractor's records or controls are determined by the Contracting

Officer to be inadequate for administration of this clause.

(i) Reports and Government access. The Contractor shall promptly furnish reports, certificates,

financial statements, and other pertinent information requested by the Contracting Officer for the

administration of this clause and to determine that an event or other criterion prompting a

financing payment has been successfully accomplished. The Contractor shall give the

Government reasonable opportunity to examine and verify the Contractor's records and to examine

and verify the Contractor's performance of this contract for administration of this clause.

(j) Special terms regarding default. If this contract is terminated under the Default clause, (1) the

Contractor shall, on demand, repay to the Government the amount of unliquidated

performance-based payments, and (2) title shall vest in the Contractor, on full liquidation of all

performance-based payments, for all property for which the Government elects not to require

delivery under the Default clause of this contract. The Government shall be liable for no payment

except as provided by the Default clause.

(k) Reservation of rights.

(1) No payment or vesting of title under this clause shall -

(i) Excuse the Contractor from performance of obligations under this contract; or

(ii) Constitute a waiver of any of the rights or remedies of the parties under the contract.

(2) The Government's rights and remedies under this clause -

(i) Shall not be exclusive, but rather shall be in addition to any other rights and remedies

provided by law or this contract; and

(ii) Shall not be affected by delayed, partial, or omitted exercise of any right, remedy,

power, or privilege, nor shall such exercise or any single exercise preclude or impair any further

exercise under this clause or the exercise of any other right, power, or privilege of the Government.

(l) Content of Contractor's request for performance-based payment. The Contractor's request for

performance-based payment shall contain the following:

(1) The name and address of the Contractor;

(2) The date of the request for performance-based payment;

attachments) has been prepared from the books and records of the Contractor, in accordance with

the contract and the instructions of the Contracting Officer;

(2) (Except as reported in writing on __________), all payments to subcontractors and

suppliers under this contract have been paid, or will be paid, currently, when due in the ordinary

course of business;

(3) There are no encumbrances (except as reported in writing on _________) against the

property acquired or produced for, and allocated or properly chargeable to, the contract which

would affect or impair the Government's title;

(4) There has been no materially adverse change in the financial condition of the Contractor

since the submission by the Contractor to the Government of the most recent written information

dated _____________; and

(5) After the making of this requested performance-based payment, the amount of all payments

for each deliverable item for which performance-based payments have been requested will not

exceed any limitation in the contract, and the amount of all payments under the contract will not

exceed any limitation in the contract.

(a) An ombudsman has been appointed to hear and facilitate the resolution of concerns from

Offerors, potential Offerors, and Contractors during the preaward and postaward phases of this

acquisition. When requested, the ombudsman will maintain strict confidentiality as to the source

of the concern. The existence of the ombudsman is not to diminish the authority of the

contracting officer, the Source Evaluation Board, or the selection official. Further, the

ombudsman does not participate in the evaluation of proposals, the source selection process, or the

adjudication of formal contract disputes. Therefore, before consulting with an ombudsman,

interested parties must first address their concerns, issues, disagreements, and/or

recommendations to the contracting officer for resolution.

(b) If resolution cannot be made by the contracting officer, interested parties may contact the

installation ombudsman, whose name, address, telephone number, facsimile number, and email

address may be found at: http://prod.nais.nasa.gov/pub/pub_library/Omb.html. Concerns, issues,

disagreements, and recommendations which cannot be resolved at the installation may be referred

to the Agency ombudsman identified at the above URL. Please do not contact the ombudsman to

request copies of the solicitation, verify offer due date, or clarify technical requirements. Such

inquiries shall be directed to the Contracting Officer or as specified elsewhere in this document.

developmental items are exempted from the prohibition because they constitute purchase of goods

or services that would not involve participation, collaboration, or coordination between the parties.

(c) This contract may use restricted funding that was appropriated on or after April 25, 2011. The

Contractor shall not contract with China or Chinese-owned companies for any effort related to this

contract except for acquisition of commercial and non-developmental items. If the Contractor

anticipates making an award to China or Chinese-owned companies, the Contractor must contact

the contracting officer to determine if funding on this contract can be used for that purpose.

domain, that the Contractor has developed at private expense, that may embody trade secrets or

commercial or financial information, and that may be sensitive or privileged.

(b) In accomplishing management activities and administrative functions, NASA relies heavily on

the support of various service providers. To support NASA activities and functions, these service

providers, as well as their subcontractors and their individual employees, may need access to

sensitive information submitted by the Contractor under this contract. By submitting this

proposal or performing this contract, the Contractor agrees that NASA may release to its service

providers, their subcontractors, and their individual employees, sensitive information submitted

Mark the title page with the following legend:

This proposal or document includes sensitive information that NASA shall not disclose outside the

Agency and its service providers that support management activities and administrative functions.

To gain access to this sensitive information, a service provider's contract must contain the clause at

NFS 1852.237-72, Access to Sensitive Information. Consistent with this clause, the service

provider shall not duplicate, use, or disclose the information in whole or in part for any purpose

other than to perform the services specified in its contract. This restriction does not limit the

Government's right to use this information if it is obtained from another source without restriction.

Test Plan, test operation procedures, quick-look test report

Delivery of Data/DRDs (mo/yr): NLT 30 days prior before milestone (except as noted below)

Objective: SpaceX will conduct a propulsive landing test of Dragon under nominal hardware

conditions. The vehicle will be dropped from an altitude sufficient to deploy parachutes and

approach the landing burn under flight-like conditions. The intent of the test is to integrate the

parachute, navigation, and propulsion systems into Dragon to demonstrate landing with command

and control, as well as data acquisition. The test article will closely match the flight configuration’s

mechanical properties, such as the outer mold line for aerodynamic accuracy, maximum gross mass,

moment of inertia, and center of mass location. The purpose for conducting the propulsive landing

test is to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of the Dragon propulsive landing system on

flight-like hardware—including the altimeter—and to validate dynamic models for the vehicle

under main parachutes. The SuperDraco assisted propulsive landing provides a fault tolerant low

impact landing although Dragon can land safely under parachutes only.

Data/Data Requirement Deliverables (DRDs) to be provided: Parachute Qualification Test

Plans, quick-look test reports

Delivery of Data/DRDs (mo/yr): NLT 30 days before Milestone (except as noted below)

Objective: SpaceX will conduct a series of tests on the parachute system in nominal and offnominal configurations, enveloping conditions for abort and nominal entry scenarios. As described

in DRD 108 Verification and Validation Plan, these tests will demonstrate that the design and build

of the Crew Dragon parachute system meets the intent of Section 4 of JSC-65985, Requirements for

Human Spaceflight for the Trailing Deployable Aerodynamic Decelerator (TDAD) System.

Complete human-rating of the parachute system will leverage these tests along with additional

analysis, inspection and lessons learned from the pad and in-flight abort tests conducted during

CCiCap. The Parachute Qualification milestone will be completed after the Flight to ISS without

Crew milestone because the latter does not require this level of human-rating for a flight without

crew, and any in-flight observations from that test flight can be used to inform the test plan for

parachute qualification.

The Dragon parachute system is critical to the safety of crew members during all missions. Its

purpose is to stabilize and decelerate the vehicle to an appropriate descent rate for a safe land

landing for all mission cases. The system must not only decelerate the Dragon from the extreme

velocities of orbital entry, but must also be able to quickly establish aerodynamic control of the

vehicle for aborted launches, the strictest of these scenarios being an emergency event at the launch

pad. The parachutes make up a sophisticated system subject to many failure modes both known and

unknown, high and potentially uncertain loads, and a wide range of initial conditions. As such,

multiple tests in a full scale and flight-like configuration are required to demonstrate and observe

aspects such as redundancy effectiveness, performance dispersions, and structural integrity.

Indicators of Milestone Readiness:

(a) NASA approval of Crew Dragon Verification Plan, including testing in support of

certification of the Dragon parachute system.

(b) Full-scale test unit(s) prepared with relevant characteristics (e.g., mass, moment of inertia,

and outer mold line) as similar to the flight configuration as possible.

(c) Any needed approvals for use of air/land space to run each test.
