Space Rapid Capabilities Office Selects Frontier Technology Inc. (FTI) to Compete under Multi-Year $1B IDIQ Contract for Development of Next-Generation Ground Software System for Military Satellites

 

BEAVERCREEK, Ohio, June 14, 2024--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Frontier Technology Inc. (FTI) was one of twenty companies selected by the Space Rapid Capabilities Office (Space RCO) to compete for work under the Rapid Resilient Command and Control (R2C2) indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contract to assist in the development of a next-generation ground software system for military satellites.

The R2C2 IDIQ was competed as a small business set-aside and seeks to build a ground system on a commercial cloud architecture to support dynamic space operations missions. Through this IDIQ contract, Space RCO will compete and issue task orders for software tools and infrastructure designed to enable Space Force operators to reposition satellites and perform other operations in a more agile manner. A Space RCO spokesperson said the Combined Program Office will procure software systems in "bite-sized" pieces and expects to award the initial task orders in the next few months.
