Decompression Sickness Data Modeling (DSDM)

This RFQ ( solicitation # 80JSC026Q0001) seeks a qualified contractor to develop an operationally‑feasible model that accurately predicts Spaceflight Decompression Sickness (DCS) risk for lunar and Mars exploration missions using retrospective research and operational data. NASA will retain data rights to the model, which must be delivered FOB to the agency no later than 11 Nov 2026. Offerors must submit a single price quotation (base year plus any option years) on the attached Attachment C Pricing Sheet, state their NAICS 541511 size status, and provide team qualifications, relevant publications, and up to three past‑performance references. The proposal is due 3 pm CST, 17 Feb 2026, to the listed NASA contacts and must include all required contract data (TIN, delivery schedule, payment terms, warranty, etc.) on an SF 1449. Evaluation will be a two‑step process: Step 1 eliminates any offer that does not meet the key RFQ requirements; Step 2 conducts a trade‑off based on technical approach (scientific and mission relevance), past performance (acceptable/neutral), and price reasonableness (FTE and direct costs). An option for additional modeling work may be exercised after model validation, and pricing must break out the option year. Compliance with FAR 52.212‑1, FAR 52.212‑2, and other incorporated clauses is mandatory.
