United States Antarctic Program (USAP) Systems Engineering and Technical Program Management Support (Solicitation DACS06P2109)

美国国家科学基金会极地计划办公室(NSF/OPP)已经确定了系统工程和技术援助(SETA)的要求，以支持美国南极计划的技术、业务和计划管理。NSF已经确定，这些要求可以通过小企业管理局8(A)为小少数人所有的企业预留计划获得的资源来满足。NSF已经获得了位于亚利桑那州亨茨维尔的LJT&Amp；Associates，Inc.(马里兰州哥伦比亚办事处)的服务。该公司的工程主题专业知识和以前类似服务的奖励下的系统工程经验是推荐这一新的搁置奖励的关键考虑因素。后续合同是最初根据先前与LJT签订的预留合同授予的具体任务订单的延续。共有8个任务订单是为了响应NSF的合同招标而投标的，目前正在评估稍后的全部或部分授予。此授予旨在初始化合同并正式授予。后续任务订单将针对特定工作范围的合同发出。建议将初始授标金额定为1美元，以启动合同。

The National Science Foundation Office of Polar Programs (NSF/OPP) has determined a requirement for systems engineering and technical assistance (SETA) to support the technical, operational, and program management of the United States Antarctic Program. NSF has determined that these requirements can be satisfied via sources obtainable via the Small Business Administration 8(a) set-aside program for small minority-owned businesses.NSF has obtained the services of LJT & Associates, Inc. of Huntsville, AL (Columbia, MD office) for these services. The company's engineering subject matter expertise and prior experience systems engineering under a prior award for similar services is a key consideration in recommending this new set-aside award. The follow-on contract represents a continuation of specific task orders initially awarded under the prior set-aside contract with LJT. A total of 8 task orders were bid in response to the NSF contract solicitation and are under evaluation for full or partial award at a later date.This award is intended to initialize the contract and formalize the award. Subsequent task orders will be issued against the contract for specific scopes of work. An initial award value of $1 is recommended to inaugurate the contract.
