Spacelift Ranges Critical to Launch Success

Mission: •  Sustain and Modernize the Air Force

Satellite Control Network to ensure responsive, effective support to the warfighter.

•  Provide highly reliable command and control, communication, telemetry and tracking for over 170 DoD, NRO, civil, and allied satellites in support of launch, surveillance, navigation, communication, and weather missions.

•  Lead development of compatible C2 and standard training systems for the space enterprise.

RN’s 2012 Major Accomplishments

As of: 6

  PEO Commitments  Complete C-Band Radar move plan  Fielded Guam Tracking Station (GTS) Remote Block

Change (RBC)   Significant Accomplishments

 Fielded Mission Flight Control Center (WR)  IOC declared for GPS Metric Tracking (ER & WR)  Fielded Pillar Point Telemetry Antenna (WR)  Fielded Cape 1B Transmitter upgrade (ER)  Delivered WGS Standardized Space Trainer (SST)

RN Strategy

  Deliver upgrades completing development now

  Prioritize investment based on reliability & mission criticality

  Fund highest priority modifications   Leverage all funding sources   Prepare to spend fallout funds

  Transition management to sustainment organization

2013 Focus Areas

As of: 8

  PEO Commitments   Award LISC Contract with at least 5% savings (3Q)   Award LTRS Network Modernization IP Contracts (1Q)   Deliver the Hawaii RTS Block Change Upgrade (2Q)

  Other RN Priorities   Award Hybrid Remote Block Change (1Q)   LISC RFP release (1Q)   Western Modernized Network RFP release (3Q)   SE&I Re-compete RFP release (4QCY13/1QCY14)   Test/Acceptance of Range/Network developments   Move AFSCN PM duties to SMC/SL in Colorado Springs

LISC

LISC combines requirements from three contracts –  Eastern Range O&M –  Western Range O&M –  Level 2 Maintenance & Sustainment

Benefits –  Lower costs –  Single contractor accountable for “green range” –  Consistent Reliability & Maintainability Data for better investment decisions

Acquisition Strategy –  LISC Operations, Maintenance & Sustainment (OM&S) Contract

•  Core mission requirements •  23% Small Business subcontracting requirement

–  Range Operations Support (ROS)

•  Formerly called LISC Ops Support (OS) •  Small Business Set-Aside for mission support •  Approximately 7% of LISC budget

LISC Status

As of: 10

  Status  Acquisition Strategy Approved  SMC “Murder Board” Complete  Assignment of ROS to 45 CONS  Business Clearance Conducted  Final draft RFP posted   OSD Peer Review (Jan 13)

  Way Ahead   Release RFP (Jan/Feb 13)   Proposals due 45 days after RFP release

RN Opportunities

As of: 11

  RN   Unified SE&I contract   RN Certification and Accreditation

  AFSCN   Commercial Provisioning   Follow-on AFSCN sustainment

  Spacelift Range   Communications Upgrades   Range Command/Destruct Upgrade

Communications Upgrade

•  Two Initiatives •  Modernized Eastern Range (MEN) •  Western Modernized Network (WMN)

–  Content •  Replace ATM with IP •  2012 - 2018

•  Schedule •  MEN:

•  In source selection now •  2 awards: NETCENTs and IP Companion

•  WMN: •  Acquisition Strategy in Final Coordination •  Similar to MEN acquisition •  May or may not use Alliant GSA contract

12

Space Training Current Activities

•  Standardized Space Trainers •  MILSATCOM •  GPS •  Space Fence

•  Supporting Joint Space Training Federation •  Sustaining space simulation capability (DMO-S) •  Conducting analyses for SMC SPOs

13

Summary

•  LISC on final approach for RFP release •  WMN next big opportunity •  SE&I contract RFP most likely CY14
