Agenda • Transforming Mission Support • MAP Program Goals • Key Transformation Activities • Transformation Parnters • Acquisition Transformation Enterprise Delivery Model • Procurement Assignments – Buying Location for PSLs • Tips to Navigate NASA Transformed Acquisition Enterprise • Transformation Benefits to Industry Partners 21
Transforming Mission Support NASA’s Business Services Assessment (BSA) evaluated the health of mission support operations and enacted changes to optimize processes and practices The Mission Support Future Architecture Program (MAP) was established to implement a phased plan to transform all mission support functional areas from their current state to an enterprise architecture. Strategic Workforce Planning Business Services Assessment Mission Support Architecture (MAP) 22
MAP Program Goals The MAP Program goals are to optimize mission support services by moving toward a more interdependent model. Share capabilities across centers Transform through collaboration Strategically evolve Center work & Agency objectives Realign Structure (budget & people) Establish a more efficient model Office of Procurement & Office of Small Business Programs MAP Goals Establish an Enterprise Operating Model, see PIC 18 -01 G, Strategic Approach to Acquisition Strategies by PSLs : Effective and efficient utilization of resources • A Procurement Enterprise Delivery Model that results in savings • Maximize Small Business Utilization Increase proficiency of OP and OSBP operations Streamline acquisition and small business practices and processes Maintain flexibility to meet NASA mission Share NASA OP and OSBP capabilities across regions and move away from sustaining the full array of acquisition and OSBP activities at every location Establish a Procurement Enterprise Delivery Model that includes Localized, Centralized, and/or Regionalized Solutions Enhance the Ability to timely respond to Agency needs 23
Transformation Partners – Know Key Partners Center Directors OP AA collaborates with Center Directors to ensure service levels meet local needs and enable mission success. Functional Owners Responsible for "requirements" content and assigns Enterprise Requirements Managers; approves long term acquisition strategy, etc. . Collaborate with Office of Procurement, and Centers to develop enterprise strategy. Associate Directors Dynamic Continuous Integration Ensure the local requirements are integrated with the enterprise strategy and ensure coordination with Center Leadership; integrates with Functional Owners, Procurement Officers, ERMs, to facilitate communication and enable mission success. HCA / Procurement Officers oversee the execution of the PSL long term Strategy. Ensures the Buying office is communicating with the PPM, ERM, local stakeholders (including AD), and other Procurement Officers. Enterprise Requirements Managers (ERM) / Procurement Portfolio Managers (PPM) Enterprise Requirements Managers coordinate and collaborate with PPM, Center Requirement Owners, and Procurement Officer (or designee) to develop long term PSL Strategy. Enterprise Requirements Managers are responsible for requirement’s strategy and communicating with Center Requirements Owners. Procurement Portfolio Managers (PPM) in concert with Procurement Officer (or designee) are responsible for the procurement strategy. Center Requirements Owners (CROs or Local Designee) Center Requirements Owners coordinate and collaborate with ERMs and Center leadership to identify center requirements 24
Acquisition Transformation Enterprise Delivery Model Product Service Lines (PSL): A defined category of recurring Institutional (e. g. construction, financial, utilities etc. ) and Program/Project Specific requirements (i. e. Aircraft Operations, Engineering, Propellants, Safety & Mission Assurance & Tech Transfer). Why this approach: Promotes Category Management (Government-wide initiative designed to leverage govt buying power and to buy strategically) Allows for development of procurement, technical and industry expertise (e. g. Supply Chain Management) Leverage best practices and capabilities across the enterprise Meet federal mandates (Spend Under Management, utilization of Best in Class Contracts) Benefits: Enables enterprise management of the Product Service Lines (e. g. spend, service levels) Improves Spend Under Management Eliminates unnecessary contract redundancies Maximizes Small Business opportunities Improves industry access to opportunities 25

NASA Partnerships Office Overview Mr. Joe Kroener Director, NASA Partnership Office
What are NASA Partnerships? • NASA regularly engages in a wide range of activities with a multitude of external entities; in a broad sense, all of these activities can be considered “partnerships” • Space Act Agreements (SAAs): A specific type of partnership instrument done under NASA’s “other transactions” authority under the Space Act • Other partnering authorities: Economy Act Commercial Space Launch Act Federal Technology Transfer Act …and more! 35
What are NASA Partnerships? NASA partnership agreements are typically one of the following types: • Reimbursable (partner reimburses NASA, in full or in part, for access to unique NASA resources); • Non-reimbursable (no exchange of funds collaborations); or • Unfunded (NASA provides resources other than funding to the partner) to help advance a technology or area of interest relevant to NASA’s missions • Partnership agreements such as SAAs are not procurement instruments; NASA does not procure goods or services for the benefit of the Agency through partnership agreements 36
NASA’s Partnership Portfolio The U. S. private sector is NASA’s largest partner segment by # of agreements, accounting for more than a third of NASA’s 2, 866 active agreements. Source: NASA Partnership Agreement Maker (PAM) system and NASA System for International and External Relations Agreements (SIERA) database as of 9/30/2019 Number of Active Agreements and % of Total by Partner Segment International Partners 681 (24%) [CATEGORY NAME] 755 ([PERCENTAGE]) U. S. State & Local Govt. 84 ([PERCENTAGE]) [CATEGORY NAME] 1, 009 ([PERCENTAGE]) U. S. Academic & Education 337 ([PERCENTAGE]) 37
NASA Partnership Engagement: Why? • Facilitates collaborative opportunities with domestic and international partners • Helps NASA resolve gaps in technical capabilities helping us meet our mission objectives • Supports U. S. economic innovation and industrial competitiveness • Meets NASA’s mandate under the Space Act of stimulating the “fullest commercial use of space” and transferring NASA-developed technologies • Helps maintain essential NASA expertise and facilities • Facilitates NASA’s education and outreach goals 38
Partner Benefits • Access to unique NASA assets (e. g. , specialized clean room, testing facilities/equipment) without incurring a large capital expenditure • Access to unique NASA technical expertise (e. g. , specialized consulting and analyses), software, and licensing opportunities • Opportunity to leverage resources by co-funding technology development of mutual interest, while retaining commercial IP rights to partner-developed technologies • NASA brand recognition (Note: NASA does not endorse commercial products or services) 39
Mission Support Enables Commercial Space Partnerships: Moving the U. S. Forward to the Moon, Mars, and Beyond Marshall Space Flight Center – provides design, development, testing and evaluation, support to Virgin Orbit for their Launcher. One rocket program development. Johnson Space Center – provides training services to Axiom private astronauts using unique training facilities and associated JSC vendor partners, in support of commercial development activities including pre-flight mission planning for prospective private astronaut trainees to facilitate the commercialization of low earth orbit operations and training. Goddard Space Flight Center – provides Space Communications Navigation (SCa. N) launch and reentry services to United Space Alliance, LLC (ULA) for their commercial, non-Federal Launches. Kennedy Space Center – renewed a five-year reimbursable Commercial Space Launch Act (CSLA) agreement with Space. X to provide access to KSC’s unique services in support of commercial launch and reentry operations. NASA competitively awarded 19 collaborative non-reimbursable partnership agreements to mature industry-developed space technologies and help maintain American leadership in space. NASA Centers are partnering with small and large aerospace companies to provide expertise, hardware and software. These partnerships will advance the commercial space sector and help bring new capabilities to market that could benefit future NASA missions. The following are examples of agreements focused specifically on enabling commercial space to get to the Moon: JSC and GSFC are working with Blue Origin to mature a navigation and guidance system for safe and precise landing on the Moon; KSC is working with Space. X to advance their technology to vertically land large rockets on the Moon. KSC is partnering with Lockheed Martin to test in-space plant growth systems that could help NASA harvest plants in deep space. 40
Mission Support Enables Commercial Space Partnerships: Moving the U. S. Forward to the Moon, Mars, and Beyond Marshall Space Flight Center – provides long-term usage of Test Stand 4670, the Saturn V first stage engine test stand, to Blue Origin for development and certification testing of their BE 3, BE 3 U, and BE 4 engines. Ames Research Center – provides wind tunnel testing of spacecraft configurations in order to obtain aerodynamic performance data of launch vehicles for commercial space capabilities. Stennis Space Center – expanded its agreements with Relativity Space (RSI) to include use of an additional facility for the purpose of launch system manufacture and assembly. Johnson Space Center – preparing Mission Control Center facilities at JSC in advance of testing hardware, known as Crew Interface Technology Payload, which Lockheed Martin will fly on Artemis I to evaluate ground to space telephony applications using COTS devices in a deep space environment. Kennedy Space Center – provides Orbital Sciences Corporation (OSC) use of High Bay 2 in the Vehicle Assembly Building (VAB) and Mobile Launcher Platform 3 (MLP-3) under a reimbursable agreement. 41
NASA Partnership Trends & Future Focus Areas • NASA Partnerships are ever-evolving and continue to diversify! • External partners and their capabilities are expanding; continuing to make breakthroughs in exploration technology and science that are pertinent to NASA’s missions • Effective partnerships will be vital for successfully accomplishing exciting NASA missions such as Artemis that will enable the first woman and next man on the Moon by 2024! NASA is committed to continuously improving and streamlining partnership processes to maximize flexibility and minimize burden for the Agency and our partners 42
