NEXT GENERATION SPACE TELESCOPE NIRCAM THE CONTRACTOR SHALL PROVIDE THE PERSONNEL, SERVICES, MATERIALS, EQUIPMENT, AND FACILITIES NEEDED TO MANAGE AND PERFORM PHASES A THROUGH E OF THE SELECTED NEAR-INFRARED CAMERA (NIRCAM) INSTRUMENT FLIGHT INVESTIGATION. THE CONTRACTOR IS RESPONSIBLE FOR ENSURING THAT ALL THE REQUIREMENTS IN THE CONTRACT ARE MET. THE CONTRACTOR SHALL PERFORM THE FOLLOWING ACTIVITIES WITHIN EACH PHASE: PHASE A: THE CONTRACTOR SHALL DEFINE THE NIRCAM SCIENCE INVESTIGATION, SCIENCE PAYLOAD, AND MISSION OPERATIONS AND DATA SYSTEMS. THE CONTRACTOR SHALL DOCUMENT ITS FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS IN A CONCEPT STUDY REPORT THAT IT SHALL PREPARE AND DELIVER TO THE GOVERNMENT. THE CONTRACTOR SHALL DEFINE AND REFINE ITS EDUCATION AND PUBLIC OUTREACH PLAN DURING PHASE A. PHASES B-D: THE CONTRACTOR SHALL DESIGN, ANALYZE, DEVELOP, FABRICATE, CALIBRATE, INTEGRATE, TEST AND DELIVER THE NIRCAM SCIENCE INSTRUMENT TO NATIONAL AERONAUTICS AND SPACE ADMINISTRATION (NASA) GODDARD SPACE FLIGHT CENTER'S (GSFC) JAMES WEBB SPACE TELESCOPE (JWST) PROJECT. THE CONTRACTOR SHALL ALSO PLAN AND PREPARE FOR THE MISSION OPERATIONS PHASE DURING PHASES B-D. THIS SHALL INCLUDE DEVELOPING AN OPERATIONS AND CALIBRATION STRATEGY, DEFINING AND PLANNING THE GUARANTEED TIME OBSERVATIONS (GTO) SCIENCE PROGRAM, PREPARING AND TESTING GROUND SOFTWARE IN COLLABORATION WITH THE SCIENCE AND OPERATIONS CENTER, AND PARTICIPATING IN MISSION SIMULATIONS. THE CONTRACTOR SHALL EXECUTE ITS EDUCATION AND PUBLIC OUTREACH (E/PO) PLAN DURING PHASES B-D. PHASES E: THE CONTRACTOR SHALL PROVIDE THE NECESSARY PERSONNEL, SERVICES, MATERIALS, EQUIPMENT, AND FACILITIES NEEDED TO PERFORM MISSION OPERATIONS AND DATA ANALYSIS (MO&DA) ACTIVITIES. THE CONTRACTOR SHALL DIRECT THE EXECUTION OF ITS GTO SCIENCE PROGRAM DURING PHASE E. THE CONTRACTOR SHALL CONTINUE TO EXECUTE ITS E/PO PLAN DURING PHASE E.
