Major Scott White

Major Scott White serves as a key procurement lead within the FA8806 Battle Management C3 SSC/BCK under the Space Systems Command, where he manages acquisitions critical to the development and sustainment of advanced command, control, and communications (C3) systems for space-enabled battle management. His role centers on securing enterprise-grade satellite telecommunications infrastructure that enhances real-time targeting, tasking, and situational awareness for joint warfighters. He oversees the full lifecycle of contract actions—from market research and solicitation to award and performance management—ensuring alignment with Department of the Air Force modernization priorities and National Defense Strategy objectives. Major White’s contracting portfolio is exclusively focused on satellite telecommunications services, with all procurements falling under NAICS 517410. He regularly engages with prime contractors specializing in secure, resilient satellite ground stations, space-based data relay networks, and tactical C3 integration platforms. His vendor partnerships include established defense aerospace firms and niche technology providers with proven expertise in military-grade satellite communications, often requiring compliance with STIGs, NIST SP 800-53, and Space Force cyber resilience standards. Major White’s contracting activity is entirely non-set-aside, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This reflects the technical complexity and mission-critical nature of the systems procured, where specialized capabilities and scale are paramount. While small business participation is not formally prioritized through socioeconomic set-asides, he ensures competitive fairness through transparent solicitation practices and robust vendor engagement. His technical domain expertise lies in secure satellite telecommunications, including military satellite constellations, encrypted data links, and integrated C3 architectures that support space-based battle management. He procures end-to-end solutions encompassing satellite ground equipment, waveform technologies, network management software, and cybersecurity-hardened communications systems essential to next-generation space operations.
