**The purpose of this amendment is to update the synopsis to reflect a revised anticipated award date as follows:

The anticipated contract award date is June 21, 2021 with an August 12, 2021 contract effective date. Phase-In will be conducted, under a separate contract or purchase order, during the 60-day period prior to the effective date of the contract.**

NASA/GSFC has a follow-on requirement for the Mechanical Integrated Services and Technologies (MIST) contract to support the Engineering Technology Directorate (ETD). The principal purpose of MIST II is to primarily acquire engineering services and related services to the Mechanical Systems Division (MSD) and the Instrument Systems and Technology Division (ISTD), as required, for the formulation, design, development, fabrication, integration, testing, verification, and operations of space flight and ground system hardware, including development and validation of new technologies to enable future space and science missions. The engineering areas of emphasis are multidisciplinary with concentration in the mechanical engineering areas of materials, structural analysis and loads, mechanical design, electromechanical design, thermal, contamination and coatings, manufacturing, integration and test, optics, cryogenics, detector systems development, laser and electronic optics, and, microwave instrument technologies.

The Government anticipates the Final RFP to be released in January 2020. The DRFP documents are attached.

An electronic library, or eLibrary, has been established for the MIST II procurement, 80GSFC20R0006. The eLibrary can be accessed using the following link: https://elibrary.gsfc.nasa.gov/. Documents will be posted on the eLibrary as they become available. Offerors are responsible for monitoring this website for any updates.
