... The payload should be "provider agnostic." CLPS task orders are a firm fixed price, so all payload-sourced requirements must be known and documented prior to a CLPS request for a task order proposals release. CLPS payload integration is defined by the external provider, but CLPS provides a payload integration manager and a project scientist to guide investigators through the integration process and to maximize the science.
From page 31...
... There are a number of possible ways to help these people with the process, from workforce development through workshops. Additionally, there may be computer-based training to post-award assistance, such as payload integration scientists or payload managers who could help shepherd PIs through the process, or perhaps the CLPS Manifest Selection Board could play some role there.

... LIFE SCIENCES RESEARCH ON THE LUNAR SURFACE Krystyn Van Vliet summarized the presentations on life science research on the lunar surface. She and her co-moderator, Jana Stoudemire, had used three framing questions in their review of the presentations, she said: First, what is the research that is actually worth doing on the way to the Moon and on the lunar surface?

... PHYSICAL SCIENCES RESEARCH ON THE LUNAR SURFACE Next, Steve Collicott and Douglas Matson offered a review of the session devoted to physical sciences research on the lunar surface. Collicott began the review by offering a list of four themes that he and Matson had identified in the presentations on physical sciences research.

... "There's always a power issue here," he said, "and that really hasn't been addressed, and it could be the topic of an entire workshop." PARTING COMMENTS Robert Ferl, Co-Chair of the Committee on Biological and Physical Sciences in Space, thanked the moderators for their summaries and notes. "There are some very clear and consistent messages that are, I would say as an observer, fairly typical for our endeavors over the past years," he said.
