Air Force Satellite Control Network Systems Engineering and Integration Support

The Air Force Satellite Control Network Systems Engineering and Integration Support contract, solicitation 16-23, was awarded to Leidos, Inc. to provide essential bridge services for the Air Force Satellite Control Network and Space Training Acquisition Office programs managed by the SMC Range and Network Division. This effort focuses on key modernization activities, including the evolutionary development and conversion of the network to a Netcentric/Service Oriented Architecture, the implementation of legacy upgrades, and the design and deployment of development projects under the Satellite Control Network Contract or the Consolidated AFSCN Modifications, Maintenance and Operations contract. Additionally, the contractor is responsible for updating Space Training Acquisition Office documentation to maintain current training requirements. Managed by the Department of Defense through the Sustainment Mcpnt Ssc/pkl agency in Peterson AFB, Colorado, this bridge contract ensures the continuity of highly specialized technical services until a competitive follow-on contract is awarded. The scope of work is designed to prevent operational gaps in critical satellite control infrastructure and training alignment, maintaining the stability of the network's engineering and integration framework during the transition to a long-term service provider.
