NSSL Phase 3 Industry Day

1. SSC/AA will host an Industry Day on 28 February - 1 March at the Los Angeles Air Force Base in El Segundo, CA. The purpose of the event is to share the NSSL Phase 3 procurement acquisition strategy and projected timeline leading up to the final NSSL Phase 3 RFP, currently anticipated for release in 3rd quarter Fiscal Year 2023.  
2. Industry Day will kick off with a general session, 0800-1200 PDT, that is open to all participants.  After the general session, the NSSL Program Office will hold one-on-one sessions with potential Phase 3 LSPs. If necessary, one-on-one sessions may also be conducted on the following day.  The Government considers a potential Phase 3 LSP to be any space access company with an existing and/or planned launch system capable of lifting a NSSL-class payload to orbit.  During the one-on-one sessions, the Program Office seeks to answer any questions the LSPs may have regarding the strategy as it pertains to their company’s CONOPS and launch system plans to help the Government maintain the highest levels of Mission Success, improve affordability, and ensure the Warfighters’ needs are met.
3. Please note registration is required for Industry Day attendance. Participation is limited to 5 people per company and must be in-person.  Interested parties must fill out and submit Attachment 1, NSSL Participant Request Form, no later than 1300 PDT on 21 February 2023.  Instructions for attendees will be provided after registration. For potential Phase 3 LSPs who wish to request a one-on-one session, please annotate in Attachment 1, NSSL Participant Request Form. The Government will work with you to schedule your one-on-one session. If selected for a one-on-one, the Government will provide an agenda that includes discussion topics to all one-on-one participants. The Government will only consider one-on-one discussions with potential Phase 3 LSPs.
4. We value our industry partnerships and looks forward to continued engagement on the draft NSSL Phase 3 RFPs.

The Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning (AI/ML) for Space Reverse Industry Day, May 17-18, 2023, will concentrate on educating Government and Industry on how AI/ML can greatly improve USSF effectiveness, across all of its mission areas; communicating where AI/ML will help solve space mission area objectives, supported with USSF investments and future budgets; matching industry partners with government customers to show AI/ML’s art of the possible; and enabling opportunities for collaboration between Government, Industry, Investment Banking and Venture Capital to foster AI/ML solutions for USSF missions.
 
By the end of this two-day event, leadership across government and industry should have a better understanding of how AI/ML will enable a broad range of space operations.
