INTERFACE REGION IMAGING SPECTROGRAPH (IRIS). THE CONTRACTOR SHALL REFINE AND EVOLVE THE CONTRACTOR'S COST ESTIMATE FOR PHASES B-F FOR THE INTERFACE REGION IMAGING SPECTROGRAPH (IRIS) MISSION SUBMITTED IN RESPONSE TO NASA ANNOUNCEMENT OF OPPORTUNITY #NNH07ZDA003O FOR THE EXPLORERS PROJECTS DIVISION. THE PRIMARY TASKS IN PHASE B WILL INCLUDE THE GENERATION AND PRESENTATION OF THE SYSTEMS REQUIREMENTS REVIEW (SRR) AND THE PRELIMINARY DESIGN REVIEW (PDR). IN ORDER TO SUPPORT THESE REVIEWS, THE CONCEPT DEFINITION EFFORTS SHALL ENCOMPASS THE WORK REQUIRED TO UPDATE AND REFINE THE PROPOSAL'S SCIENCE INVESTIGATION OBJECTIVES AND PLANS (IF NECESSARY), INSTRUMENT AND SPACECRAFT CONCEPTS AND PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS, AND SCIENCE OPERATIONS AND FLIGHT OPERATIONS PLANS AND CONCEPTS. THESE EFFORTS SHALL IDENTIFY THE CONDITIONS AND CONSTRAINTS NECESSARY FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF AN INTEGRATED IRIS MISSION APPROACH. THE CONTRACTOR'S MISSION INTEGRATION EFFORTS SHALL INCLUDE CONSIDERATIONS FOR THE ACCOMMODATION OF THE IRIS OBSERVATORY ONTO THE LAUNCH VEHICLE. THE CONTRACTOR'S PHASE B PRELIMINARY DESIGN EFFORTS SHALL DEVELOP THE CSR AND SITE VISIT CONCEPTS INTO A PRELIMINARY DESIGN AND DEFINITION OF THE IRIS MISSION, INCLUDING ITS MISSION OPERATIONS CENTER (MOC) AND SCIENCE OPERATIONS CENTER (SOC). THE PRELIMINARY DESIGN REVIEW (PDR) SHALL BE HELD IN ACCORDANCE WITH NPR 7120.5D, NPR 7123.1A, AND GSFC STD 1001B. THE CONTRACTOR'S EFFORTS IN PHASE B SHALL FORM THE BASIS FOR FINAL ATION OF THE REMAINDER OF THE IRIS DEVELOPMENT AND OPERATIONAL PHASES (C, D, E AND F). DETAILED COST AND SCHEDULE ESTIMATES SHALL BE PREPARED AND SUBMITTED DURING PHASE B, WHICH DEFINES THE CONTRACTOR'S UPDATED BUDGET FOR PHASE B AND THE PLANNED BUDGETS FOR PHASE C, D, E AND F WORK. PERIODIC TECHNICAL AND PROGRAMMATIC INTERCHANGE MEETINGS AT BOTH THE CONTRACTOR'S FACILITY AND AT GSFC SHALL BE REQUIRED TO COORDINATE EFFORTS BETWEEN THE CONTRACTOR AND THE EXPLORERS PROJECTS OFFICE. THESE MAY BE CONDUCTED AS FACE-TO-FACE MEETINGS OR TELECONFERENCES, AS REQUIRED.
