Science Applications International Corp. won a $444 million contract to support Digital Transformation, Acquisition, Modernization and Modification for the U.S. Space Force’s Space Systems Command and Space Launch Deltas 30 and 45.
“SAIC’s continued partnership with the Space Force is a symbol of our commitment to further space exploration, resilience and crew safety in space ranges in Florida, California and across the United States,” said David Ray, executive vice president of SAIC’s Space and Intelligence Business Group. “As space efforts advance, we understand the growing significance of efficient spaceports and look forward to further supporting the modernization work alongside our industry-leading partners.”
As part of the work, SAIC will help modernize space launch range instrumentation. The efforts will support an accelerated national launch cadence across the Eastern Range and Western Range, including Cape Canaveral Space Force Station and Patrick Space Force Base in Florida, and Vandenberg Space Force Base in California.
SAIC and its partners will work together to modernize antiquated instrumentation and processes to enable a faster and more integrated launch environment, the company said.
In addition to DTAMM, SAIC’s work facilitates future unmanned spacecraft, Earth science data-collecting satellites, space-ground systems for military joint all-domain command and control and more.
