Major Completed Actions

NASA Office of Inspector General Audits: NASA continues to close out requests for clarifying data that support the OIG effort on summarizing the results of the site visits, and audits conducted on the contract/cooperative agreement awards, in October through December. NASA is responding to an audit on the Agency's process for reviewing data quality of the recipient reports, for "significant errors and material omissions."

Aeronautics: Awards include: a Glenn Research Center (GRC) Fundamental Aeronautics contract for a ultra high bypass turbine‐powered simulator fan; Langley Research Center awards for an Aviation Safety contract under the Integrated Vehicle Health Management Project for monitoring and assessing the effectiveness of airframe structural damage diagnosis and mitigation algorithms, the Integrated Research Aircraft Control Project for Airstar flight software development, several Airspace Systems mods that include accelerating airborne separation assurance by 4D‐Flight Management System (FMS) development through algorithms and testing, and the Aeronautics Test Program (ATP) upgrade of the tunnel controls systems for the National Transonic Facility (NTF).

Cross‐Agency Support for Hurricane Damage Repair Projects at the Johnson Space Center (JSC): JSC awarded a contract mod to repair PEAF panels on six buildings that will increase requirements for personal protective equipment, material and equipment due to presence of PCBs in the caulking that must be removed.

Major
Planned Actions

NASA intends to continue soliciting for Science, Exploration, and Aeronautics contracts and cooperative agreement proposals in accordance with applicable Program Plans, and then start work on projects in accordance with Recovery Act provisions.

NASA Office of Inspector General Audits: The NASA Management Office (NMO) at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) is preparing for an OIG audit in late‐March/early‐April.

Aeronautics: Several procurements are scheduled for award in March, including the 2nd portion of the Low Nitrogen Oxide (NOx) Combustor Technologies NRA at GRC for Fundamental Aeronautics, and additional NRA proposals for Aviation Safety, and Airspace Systems are also expected during March.

Cross‐Agency Support for Hurricane Damage Repair Projects at the Johnson Space Center (JSC): In March, JSC intends to issue a task order for additional construction project integration and schedule support and review safety performance to date on all projects to determine if additional areas of emphasis are warranted.

Science: Several Earth Science procurements are planned for March, including various research investments in Scientific Computing, the Landsat Data Continuity Mission (LDCM), Ice, Cloud, and land Elevation Satellite II (ICESAT 2), Applied Science and Airborne Science.

Exploration: The award of two remaining Space Act Agreements (SAAs) for the Commercial Crew Development is expected to be finalized in March, as well as additional tasks for the Kennedy Space Center (KSC) launch infrastructure activities, and for the Stennis Space Center (SSC) E100 test stand activities; the Commercial Crew Cargo Common Docking Adapter contract mod is anticipated to be definitized by mid‐March.
