Space Force to host Kronos industry day

On February 13, the U.S. Space Force (USSF) issued an industry day invitation for the Kronos Mission Catalyst Day, an industry engagement event focused on informing and shaping the future of the Kronos program through open dialogue with commercial solutions providers. The event will take place on March 3, and registration is required.

The objective of Kronos Mission Catalyst Day is to engage industry in a two-way dialogue regarding the Kronos Commercial Solutions Opening (CSO) and future opportunities to partner in delivering innovative commercial solutions for the Kronos Family of Systems. The government will provide updates and lessons learned from the current CSO, and industry participants will have the opportunity to share feedback on innovative approaches, technologies, and partnerships that may inform future acquisition activities.

Kronos Mission Catalyst Day will include government briefings, a moderated panel discussion, and interactive engagement opportunities designed to enhance shared understanding of program vision, mission context, and integration expectations.

The event is intended for commercial solutions providers, small businesses, and non-traditional defense partners with interest in contributing innovative capabilities aligned to Kronos mission needs.

The Kronos program is a USSF initiative to develop a modern, integrated battle management and command-and-control (C2) Family of Systems that enhances decision advantage for joint and coalition space operations. Kronos is designed to integrate modular, extensible, and interoperable software solutions that support operational planning, execution, and assessment across the space domain while modernizing legacy capabilities and enabling rapid integration of commercial innovation.

The Kronos Family of Systems is currently focused around three primary Areas of Interest (AOIs):

  • AOI 1 – Operational Command and Control (C2): Enables operational-level C2 capabilities supporting mission planning, coordination, execution, and shared situational awareness.
  • AOI 2 – Battle Management: Focuses on the orchestration and optimization of space domain resources, including planning, deconfliction, tasking, and mission assessment functions.
  • AOI 3 – Space Intelligence Integration: Provides intelligence and space domain awareness capabilities that support battlespace characterization, collection planning, targeting support, and enhanced understanding of the operational environment.
