On January 27, Space Systems Command (SSC) System Delta 810 (SYD 810), Space-Based Sensing and Tracking issued the Space- and Ground-Based Environmental Monitoring (EM) Commercial Data and Services request for information (RFI). Responses are due by 5:00 p.m. Eastern on February 20, and there will be an industry day in March.
This RFI seeks to gather information from potential suppliers to inform the development of a comprehensive strategy and validate the feasibility of leveraging commercial solutions to meet United States Space Force (USSF) requirements. The Government is seeking industry feedback, recommendations, and best practices during the market intelligence phase of this effort. Please do not provide generic capability statements. The Government is seeking well defined responses with supporting documentation to assist in developing acquisition strategies.
Additional market research may or may not be conducted. Responses from all sizes of vendors are encouraged and should align with prior or ongoing solicitations relevant to Space-Based Environmental Monitoring (SBEM) and Ground-Based Space Environmental Monitoring (GBSEM) technologies and services.
SSC continues to advance an enterprise-wide initiative to develop, acquire, and integrate space-based and ground-based environmental sensing systems to meet Department of War (DoW) global weather and environmental monitoring needs. The objective is to enhance the resilience, responsiveness, and accuracy of environmental data products supporting operations, planning, and decision-making across the DoW.
Review the SSC space- and ground-based EM RFI.
