Acquisition Strategy Development & Source Selection

Abstract

Develop and refine the PTS acquisition strategy for rapid prototyping and fielding of hostable payloads with rideshare opportunities, free-flyer satellite bus configurations, and other potential solutions. This includes developing the request for prototype proposals to enable competitive selection of up to four payload prime contractors. In parallel to preparing for the competitive selection, the Air Force is developing strategies for the acquisition of commodity buses, ground segment software and hardware, gateway segment terminals and equipment, risk reduction projects, and other supporting activities.
