DESCRIPTION
The government authority in Florida is seeking a vendor to conduct a feasibility study for a payload processing facility (PPF) intended for nuclear operations. The proposed facility must accommodate standard mission requirements and maintain high cleanliness standards to comply with planetary protection protocols.
In addition to supporting hazardous spacecraft operations, including fueling, the vendor must deliver a comprehensive ground-operations concept of flow. This should detail the ways an offeror-provided PPF would be utilized to process spacecraft containing nuclear materials, with strong emphasis on mission versatility, cleanliness, and safety.
Vendors should demonstrate expertise in nuclear facility planning and operations, with a thorough understanding of rigorous aerospace and contamination control standards.
