Relation to GFC8 Ground Systems Software Related Activities (GFC8) • The GFC8 contract covers development and maintenance of [ software] products in the OPS-G application domains. It also includes operations of the products developed within the contract. Specific service requirements are included for support of the simulation campaigns, Navigation office operations and Space Debris tool operation. - EFC1 activities are not aimed primarily at developing software (although development of algorithms or some engineering software tool activities might be carried out) and include also Ground Station engineering support • In GFC8, both FFP and FUP activities are considered. Development and maintenance activities will, by default, be FFP. FUP support will be used for mission preparation, launch preparation and operational phases. - EFC1 activities will generally be carried out as FUP • Development activities in GFC8 shall be performed normally off- site. Work shall be performed on ESOC site only for: work needed on ESOC specific platform for longer than 6 months period or on- site support work for member of operational teams and Helpdesks. - EFC1 activities will generally be carried out on-site ESA sites I ndustry Day Briefing – OPS-G Engineering Manpower Support Frame Contract | 24/ 08/ 21010 | Page 11
Tendering rules Exclusions • LSI are excluded from bidding • GFC8 related - GFC8 FCOs are not allowed to tender under EFC1 - QPAs are allowed to tender under EFC1 Consortium building constrains • Consortia, which include more than one large manpower provider to ESA in whatever capacity (Prime or Sub). A “large manpower provider” is deemed to be a company having presently under an existing manpower support contract with the Agency in whatever capacity – being prime- or subcontractor – more than 50 man- years per year of contractual commitment during the Contract duration. • Competing Prime contractors in current manpower frame contracts in the same Application Domain cannot build consortia (see clarification issued) I ndustry Day Briefing – OPS-G Engineering Manpower Support Frame Contract | 24/ 08/ 21010 | Page 12
Selection Process Two steps within one process • Selection of FCOs • Allocation of Initial WPs to selected FCOs Evaluation Criteria for each step as per ITT STC Geo-return preferential clause is included at FC level Intention is to select at least 2 FCOs per Qualification Domain I ndustry Day Briefing – OPS-G Engineering Manpower Support Frame Contract | 24/ 08/ 21010 | Page 13
