Description

1. Requestor

This Request for Information (RFI) is being released by the Space Dynamics Laboratory (SDL) in conjunction with the Air Force Research Lab (AFRL) Hybrid Architecture Demonstrations (HAD) Team. This group is actively investigating future concepts of a Hybrid Space Architecture (HSA)–hereby defined as an integrated system of commercial, allied, and traditional US Government capabilities of varied sizes, orbits, and phenomenologies.

2. Purpose

The HAD Team is seeking new technologies to help manage the mission planning aspect of the diverse and proliferated HSA. Such application of space operations aims to dramatically improve deterrence and resilience in space while providing substantial new information advantage for science, commerce, and security. As new technologies arise very rapidly, this RFI is intended to deliver a fresh look at current and emerging satellite mission planning capabilities.

3. Responses

Responses of this RFI should come from parties with applicable satellite mission planning capabilities either existing or in development as outlined in section 2 below. Many opportunities and challenges are expected to exist within the management of the HSA as envisioned, and responses are encouraged to highlight both.
