Summary from the notice

National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) /Marshall Space Flight Center (MSFC) is hereby soliciting information from potential sources regarding an emerging opportunity for Unified Network and Navigation Operations (UNNO). The Space Communications and Navigation (SCaN) program is responsible for and manages NASA's communications and navigation capabilities to enable scientific discovery and space exploration. Currently these capabilities are provided through the Near Space Network (NSN) and the Deep Space Network (DSN). SCaN is evolving its management and operational structure to form an integrated network operations team under SCaN’s One Network philosophy to be executed under the UNNO contract. Together as a cohesive organization, SCaN Program Office will provide reliable, efficient, secure, and innovative communication and navigation network services that connect mission operations teams to their spacecraft, a vital link that enables mission success. Missions supported include NASA human spaceflight and scientific programs, non-NASA government agencies, commercial companies, and international partners. SCaN’s network capabilities will continue to evolve through an increasing use of commercial services across the Earth, lunar, Mars, and deep space domains; however, not all capabilities will be fully commercialized. Certain mission-critical functions will continue to rely on government-owned systems where necessary to ensure performance, resilience, and global cov…
