Opportunity Overview
This is an Industry Day announcement.
The Phase 3 Lane 1 Industry Day will cover the details and timeline for on-ramping additional Launch Service Providers (LSPs), as well as the details and timelines for the upcoming Launch Service Task Orders (LSTOs) that will be competed amongst LSPs that have been awarded a Lane 1 Indefinite-Delivery Indefinite-Quantity (IDIQ) contract.
A. NSSL Phase 3 Lane 1 Overview
The United States Space Force (USSF) Space Systems Command, National Security Space Launch (NSSL) Program task is to deliver national security space capability to the warfighter to deter/defeat the pacing challenge. The NSSL Phase 3 Lane 1 approach to meet this task is to provide space access to the integrated space architecture at affordable prices. Phase 3 Lane 1 consists of multiple award IDIQ contracts with an Authority-to-Proceed (ATP)-to-Fiscal Year 2029 (FY29) ordering period, and a single five-year option. Lane 1 launch services will be procured via LSTOs.
Lane 1 provides awardees who can meet a subset of the NSSL requirements, the opportunity to compete for ~22 missions via annual task order competitions. The NSSL program has implemented a tiered mission assurance approach that inherently accepts a higher risk to mission success to address mission specific needs. The NSSL Phase 3 Industry Day will also introduce the market research initiative for the future acquisition following Phase 3.
