Update: The webinar session on 11 June is now fully booked. A second session on 18 June (10:00-12:00 CEST) is also now fully booked.
A new session is offered during the virtual Industry Space Days on 16–17 September 2020.
On Thursday, 11 June 2020 from 10:00–12:00, ESA is holding a webinar to help those new to ESA, to understand the terminology of ESA's Procedures, Specification and Standards Forms (PSS) and to demonstrate the links between the costing forms.
Course Description:
A company participating in an ESA Invitation To Tender (ITT) is required to complete a financial proposal that includes the ESA Procedures, Specification and Standards Forms – known as PSS forms.
ESA PSS forms show cost data and are required under the General Conditions of Tender for ESA Contracts (ESA/REG/001, rev.5, Annex IV).
The Tender Evaluation Board (TEB) uses this information to conduct a review, comparison and selection from the various tenders received in response to an ITT. The information in the PSS tables is used to break down costs and give transparency to the total price of an industrial proposal.
For those new to ESA, the course gives an introduction to the PSS terminology and demonstrates the links between the costing forms.
Objectives:
The aim of the course is to help participants better understand the PSS forms, enabling them to construct a coherent financial proposal.
