1. EoI Objective:
Driven with the mandate of realizing 12-18 Satellites Per Annum, SIG/ISAC is planning
to augment the existing in-house Spacecraft Harness realization support through
Industry participation. ISAC is planning to involve multiple Vendors to take up
Spacecraft Harness realization and associated activities.
The purpose of this EoI is to invite proposals from the potential vendors to carry out
end-to-end Spacecraft Harness Realization at Vendor premises or Spacecraft Harness
realization & associated activities at ISAC premises for ISRO satellites. End-to-End
Spacecraft Harness Realization at Vendor premises is categorised as Model-1
henceforth, and Spacecraft Harness Realization at ISAC/ISITE and support for
associated activities is categorised as Model-2. On successful completion of EoI
and RFP stage, depending on the response of vendors and their capability, multiple
vendors shall be selected with parallel rate contracts for each Model. The Tenure of
the Contract is planned for a period of three years and can be extended to an
additional two years subject to satisfactory performance of the vendors and mutual
agreement between ISAC and Vendors. Spacecraft Harness realization workload for
different Spacecrafts will be distributed among the selected vendors during the tenure
of the contract as per vendor capacity, performance and ISAC requirements.

2. Introduction:
ISRO Satellite Centre [ISAC] is one of the lead Centres of the Indian Space Research
Organisation [ISRO] responsible for Design, Development, Assembly and Integration
of Satellites for various applications.
ISAC main campus is spread across a 32 acre campus at Old Airport Road,
Vimanapura post in Bengaluru. To cater to the growing demand for satellite
applications, ISRO Satellite Integration & Testing Establishment [ISITE], a 110 acre
campus which is about 8 km away from the main campus was also established.
ISAC/ISITE houses state-of-the-art design, fabrication, and test facilities and large
clean rooms for the assembly, integration and testing of various types of satellites.
Laboratory for Electro-Optics Systems [LEOS], situated at Peenya Industrial Estate,
Bengaluru is engaged in design, development and production of Electro-Optic sensors
and camera optics for satellites and launch vehicles.
The ISAC main campus and ISITE campus are hereinafter collectively referred to as
‘ISAC’. The specialised teams of scientists, engineers and technicians at ISAC have
built more than 90 complex and advanced satellites for various applications in areas of
telecommunications, television broadcasting, VSAT services, tele-medicine, tele-
education, navigation, weather forecasting, disaster warning, search & rescue
operations, earth observations, natural resource management, space science and
interplanetary missions etc.
The Satellite Programme at ISAC is categorized into:

 Geo-Stationary Satellite Programme
 Satellite Navigation Programme
 Earth Observation & Small Satellite Programme
Based on the mass and power generation the satellites are also classified into mainly
three bus platforms. Satellites built at ISAC are realised around the configurations
from this table.
1 IRS/Scientific Satellites
2 I-1K/I-2/I-3K/I-4K Bus Satellite

ISAC has set the target of building about 12-18 satellites per year to cater to the
growing demand for satellite based applications and the centre is presently engaged
in the challenging task of building future generation advanced communication, remote
sensing, navigation and space science satellites. In order to meet this huge demand,
ISAC is striving for increasing collaboration and contribution from Indian vendors to
build various subsystems for Satellites. Presently, vendors are involved in various
satellite building activities such as electronic and mechanical subsystem parts
manufacturing, subsystem fabrication and testing, etc. There is an opportunity for
vendors to contribute in the field of Spacecraft Harness and the scope of vendors’
participation is bound to increase, both in terms of volume and complexity.
After successfully completing the vendor’s participation in subsystem level fabrication

and testing, ISAC is interested to utilize Vendor’s support for realization Spacecraft
Harness and active participation in Spacecraft Harness related activities. Vendor shall
provide required support as per the scope of work without compromising on ISRO’s
quality standards. Interested vendors shall express their interest for the same. The
details of ISAC’s requirements from vendors are provided in the subsequent chapters.

3.0 SCOPE OF WORK

Expression of Interest is floated for Outsourcing of Spacecraft Harness Fabrication in
two Models (Model-1 & Model-2). In Model-1, Spacecraft Harness Realization is done
at Vendor’s premises but all onboard flight Materials supplied from ISAC. In Model-2,
Spacecraft Harness Realization is done at ISAC/ISITE premises and associated
Harness related support activities during Spacecraft Realization in cleanroom.
3.1 Spacecraft Harness Realization (Model-1):
ISAC will provide the required Data pack and Flight component/materials for Harness
realization to Vendor. Vendor has to realize the end-to-end Harness as per the scope
of work at his premises and upon final clearance & acceptance by ISAC; Vendor shall
deliver the Spacecraft harness to ISAC as per the terms & conditions. There will be
few mandatory inspection points (MIP) from ISAC team during Harness realization
phase, subsequent to the clearance from ISAC at each stage or MIP, vendor shall
carry out further activities. Realized harness will under go series of Harness
qualification tests before handing over to ISAC team for Spacecraft integration &
testing activities.
Modality or Contract Execution Plan:
It is proposed to carry out Spacecraft Harness Realization for ISRO spacecrafts with
support from Vendor at his premises. The entire contract will be executed in 3
different phases as follows.
Phase-1: Orientation and Certification Programme comprising of three to four weeks

on Spacecraft Harness Design, Implementation process and Qualification.
Phase-2: Around 2months for preparation of the facility for Harness realization as per
ISAC specification. Vendor’s facility/infrastructure will be validated & certified by ISAC
team. Vendor has to realize end to end sample harness as per ISAC requirements, as
part of Qualification programme, for the Vendor to take up flight Harness realization.
Phase-3: Vendor will independently carry out Spacecraft Harness realization as per
the scope of the work and ISAC’s standard process & quality guidelines. All the
Harness related activities listed in table shall be inspected by Online QC from Vendor
