Summary: Advancements include new enterprise data storage and data management solutions capable of operating in secure environments and providing data products and advanced analytics. Space Command and Control (C2) Data Platform will provide seamless synchronized multi-domain warfighting to space operational communities.
EL SEGUNDO, Calif. – U.S. Space Force (USSF) Space Systems Command (SSC) are advancing their Space C2 Data Platform to provide enterprise data storage and data management solutions including seamless synchronized multi-domain warfighting to space and air operational communities.
Through the award of a $217.8M Delivery Order under the Data Software Services (DSS) IDIQ, SSC has selected Palantir USG, Inc. to provide Space C2 Data Platform solutions capable of operating in secure environments and providing data products and advanced analytics to the DoD and joint force.
The Space C2 Data Platform harnesses the power of data to enable military leaders to make decisions more quickly, efficiently and with greater confidence resulting in real world mission impacts. It is a configurable enterprise data management and operations software solution that enables the integration and management of data from various disparate data sources. It supports application delivery, in-depth analysis, and data-driven decision-making across echelons and functional communities, including users who operate on multiple security levels across multiple networks.
“We’ve transitioned to an agile commercial approach toward software development so that we can quickly deliver advanced warfighter capabilities that require the aggregation of massive amounts of data from disparate sources and systems,” said USSF Lt. Col. David Williams, material leader for SSC Space Defense and Theater Support. “Leveraging this data accelerates our ability to develop and execute joint space warfighting capabilities.”
Data is a strategic asset that is imperative to leverage in the deterrence of multi-domain threats and to ensure superiority against great power competition. The Space C2 Data Platform provides solutions on multiple networks and promotes an efficient, cross-service response to evolving and crisis events. USSF requires the ability to ingest and properly secure sensitive data, to operationalize this data, and to enable leaders to make data-driven decisions for a lethal and effective joint force that sustains U.S. influence and advances shared security and prosperity.
Space Systems Command is the U.S. Space Force field command responsible for acquiring, developing, and delivering resilient capabilities to outpace emerging threats and protect our Nation’s strategic advantage in, from, and to space. SSC manages a $15.6 billion annual space acquisition budget for the Department of Defense, working with joint forces, industry partners, government agencies, academia, and allied nations.
