How does my company register to attend Industry Day? Please click on the "Registration" button on the upper left side of this webpage. Complete the registration form and be sure to select the Industry Day registration check box. Once complete, you will receive an email to confirm your registration that you are required to bring with you on both days to the event. For more information about Industry Day, click on the "Industry Day - April 2009" button on the upper left side of this webpage. 2. Is it a requirement to attend Industry Day in order to submit a proposal on a component of the acquisition? Attending Industry Day to submit a proposal is not a requirement of this acquisition. Attendance at I3P acquisition activities is optional and for information gathering only. Please continue to check this website for the latest I3P acquisition information. 3. Will there be Webcast capabilities for this Industry Day? There will not be remote access via a webcast for Industry Days. However, presentation materials will be available in the Technical Library following Industry Days. 4. I plan to attend I3P Industry Day. Where should I stay? NASA has not reserved a block of rooms for this event, however www.washington.org provides great lodging options and general information about the Washington, DC area. 5. Will there be a separate Program Management procurement to support the entire I3P or the NASA CIO for this effort? NASA does not currently have any plans for obtaining program support through an additional procurement. 6. Following Industry Day, will I be sent a copy of the solicitations? All I3P-related documents for public viewing will be posted in the I3P Technical Library , on FedBizOpps, and on NAIS. 7. Do you have a rough schedule/program of which programs will be discussed and at specific times? An agenda has not been published yet, but during the two-day meeting, presentations will be given concerning each of the five draft RFP’s and the overall I3P initiative. 8. Will the same material be discussed on both 4/21 and 4/22 or will new material be presented each day? For planning purposes, different information will be presented each day. NASA recommends that interested parties attend both days to learn about the overall program and how the contracts will be integrated within I3P. 9. Will there be time allowed to talk with the Program Managers one-on-one? Due to the expected number of participants, during Industry Days, there will not be an opportunity for industry one-on-ones. You will hear directly from NASA thought leaders who have developed the draft RFPs as they explain the key elements of the various acquisitions. However, you can submit written questions or comments for consideration by each of the five procurement teams. This input will be used to assist NASA in the development of final RFPs. 10. The site says that two (2) people per company are allowed to attend. Should our second company representative register on the website for Industry Day as well? We ask each company to coordinate and identify which two people will attend. Each attendee should self-register. 11. Is my company allowed to bring more than two (2) people to Industry Days? In response to requests from contractors who may be bidding on more than one contract, NASA is opening up participation in Industry Days. Contractors can send two representatives for each contract on which they are considering to bid. In other words, if a contractor is considering to bid on two contracts, then four representatives from that company may register to attend Industry Days. 12. What is the cost to attend Industry Days? There is no charge to registered participants for the meetings on Industry Days. 13. Does the Mellon Auditorium have wireless access? It does not have wireless. However, sprint cards and similar devices do work in a limited capacity. BlackBerry devices work in the building. General Notes: Note 1: Draft Request for Proposals (RFPs) for the component acquisitions are scheduled to be released on April 15, 2009. After the draft RFPs are released, Pre-proposal Conferences may be held. Note 2: Industry Day is for information and planning purposes and is not to be construed as a commitment by the Government. The Government will not pay for information solicited. |
