L. 111–117), National Aeronautic and Space Administration (NASA) is publishing this notice to advise the public of the availability of its FY 2010 Service Contract inventory.

The inventory has been developed in accordance with guidance issued on November 5, 2010, by the Office of Management and Budget’s Office of Federal Procurement Policy (OFPP). NASA has posted its inventory and a summary of the inventory on the NASA Office of Procurement homepage at the following link: https://www.hq.nasa.gov/ office/procurement/scinventory/ index.html. Point of contact for this initiative is Sandra Morris (202) 358–0532, Sandra.morris@nasa.gov. SUMMARY: William McNally, Assistant Administrator for Procurement.
