SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Abstract
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) is
committed to effectively performing the Agency's communication function
in accordance with the Space Act Section 203 (a) (3) to ``provide for
the widest practicable and appropriate dissemination of information
concerning its activities and the results there of,'' and to enhance
public understanding of, and participation in, the nation's space
program in accordance with the NASA Strategic Plan.
At NASA Kennedy Space Center (KSC) VIP guests come to see launches
and leave inspired. To enable and facilitate official outreach, the
Outreach & Guest Operations Office (PX-O) relies heavily on NASA
employees (civil servants and contractors) who elect to support
launches in many capacities, and run tours. PX-O plans to recruit staff
to support the Guest Operations VIP Bus Escort and Site Lead Team
program known as the GO TEAM program. Bus escorts play a critical role
engaging VIP guests, disseminating information about facilities and
missions, as well as ensuring guests get to tour locations and launch
viewing sites, and are returned to their correct point of departure
seamlessly. Of the various launch staffing roles, bus escorts require
special skills--the ability to speak well with high level guests about
NASA missions and KSC facilities, solve problems with quick thinking,
and act as an exemplary spokesperson for NASA.
This role is particularly critical with Artemis-1 launch expected
in November
[[Page 57204]]
2021, which alone will bring 10,000 VIP Guests to KSC. Numbers like
these necessitate a skilled set of over 200 bus escorts for a single
launch. The need for VIP bus escorts is essential and urgent. Artemis-1
will reach \1/2\ of the expected total number guests for 2021which is
22,000. The number of guests requires 300 bus escorts, which is 300%
greater than the total bus escorts needed in all of the combined
launches in 2019.
Bus escorts and additional site leads need to be recruited
internally from NASA Kennedy Space Center's internal civil servants and
contractors. Guest Operations is looking for GO TEAM bus escorts who
``have the right stuff'' to address and speak to NASA's highest level
guests. As such those NSPIREHub (NASA Serves the Public to Inspire,
Reach out, and Engage) staff applicants need to be screened to help
assess if they can serve as high-caliber NASA Spokespeople.
