  1. Structure of Space Acquisition Space and Missile Systems Center Brig General Donna Shipton 8/6/2019 UNCLASSIFIED//FOUO

  2. Air Force Space Acquisitions Requirements and Threat Assessments • Prototype and “Block 0” technology pathfinders • High-rate production affordability, repeatability, and reliability for space programs • Ground-based space effects • On-orbit check-out, testing, sustainment & maintenance DoD satellite constellations & space systems • Transfer to production AFRCO and SpRCO initial operational prototypes • Premier Launch Enterprise for both Air Force and NRO • Fielding within 18-48 months and for which normal processes are insufficiently responsive • Initial operational prototypes and production units for space programs • Basic Research • S&T focused on technological “art of the possible” Enterprise Solutions, Purposeful Partnerships, Innovative Capabilities UNCLASSIFIED//FOUO

  8. SMC Strategic Outcomes • Enterprise • Shared vision and strategy of an integrated portfolio across programs • Resilient, multi-layered architectures and infrastructure services that leverage economies of scale for all programs • Ability to dynamically reallocate resources based on priorities, and promote collaboration and knowledge-sharing Strategic Outcomes • Dominate • Partnerships • A wide network of suppliers including both traditional contractors and innovative start-ups • Collaboration with Inter-government and International allies to share costs, technologies, and solutions to move faster and improve capabilities • Deliver • Encourage fast failure and fast learning by maximizing use of prototyping, experimentation, and rapid demonstration/feedback • Balanced portfolio of S&T, R&D, and fielded capabilities providing incremental improvements and opportunities for innovation • Make Strategic innovative investment in high-payoff technologies and game-changing capabilities (Space Control, Rapid Orbital Mobility, Info Agility) • Innovation • Culture • Drive • Mission-focused, motivated, knowledgeable, and empowered workforce • A culture of risk-taking and continuous improvement that enables creative problem-solving • Talent management system designed to develop leaders, empower teams, and reward performance • Speed • Increase decisionmaking velocity with flatter organization and delegated decision authorities • Streamlined processes, documentation, and reviews tailored for the acquisition strategy UNCLASSIFIED//FOUO

  9. Space RCO Acquisition Structure - SLCO 6 August 2019 Michael Roberts, SES Director

  10. SpRCO - Oversight & Governing Principles • Board of Directors (BoD) • SecAF – Chair • Members: • Chief of Staff AF • CDRUSSPACECOM • SAF/AQ • USD (A&S) • USD (R&E) • USSPACECOM Commander Requirements validation authority • AFSPC Commander Organize/train/equip mission • SAF/AQ Acquisition Authorities • AFOSI/PJ Security/Network ATO Approval Commander, Air Force Space Command (AFSPC) Direct Reporting Unit (Administrative) Tasking & Project Approval Director & PEO Space Rapid Capabilities Office • Short Narrow Chain of Command • Small Integrated Program Office Teams • Stable Funding & Requirements • Early & Prominent Warfighter Involvement • Organic Functional Support

  11. SpRCO Acquisition Planning • Designed to meet intent of statute, FAR, DFARS, and AFFARS requirements • Minimize documentation & duplication • Program-specific documentation tailoring in streamlined acquisition plans by phase • Concept, Development and Production/Deployment • How a program becomes…… • USSPACECOM validates requirements • Director briefs BoD • BoD approves/disapproves • Designation Memorandum used to delineate BoD’s decisions

  12. What makes us different • Short chain of command, small/integrated teams, 100% organic functional support • Director/Program Executive Officer (PEO) • Appointed as PEO w/full acquisition authority directly from SAF/AQ • Ability to tailor processes to meet intent of acquisition requirements • Receives direction to initiate programs from SECAF chaired SpRCO BoD • Director of Contracting • Receives full authority up to $1B directly from SAF/AQC • Only 1 layer under, providing direct access for PCOs • Program Control Director • Funding worked separately from typical Air Force policy • Work POM inputs directly w/HAF/A8 • Single PE allows cradle-to-grave financial management control/influence • Key characteristics: • Decision making velocity…maximum authority in-house • Security control…Original Classification Authority • Culture…take risks smartly, small teams, integrate off-the-shelf • Reduce bureaucracy by eliminating multiple levels of oversight with no authority

  13. Questions?

  14. Space Rapid Capabilities Office (SpRCO)Background Charter Signature Page • FY18 NDAA - Redesignated Office from ORS to SpRCO • FY19 NDAA – Codified additional authorities and organizational alignment • 1 Nov 2018 – Charter Signed Validated Roles & Responsibilities • 14 Dec 2018 – OCR Signed SpRCO aligned as a direct report to AFSPC NDAA Language “Develop and Deliver Operationally Dominant Space Capabilities at the Speed of Warfighting Relevance”

  15. How the SECAF selects our programs • Program assignment and approval based on specific criteria • Urgency…Capabilities that need to be fielded in 18-48 months for which normal processes are insufficiently responsive • Revolutionary/disruptive capability…operational game-changers • Fragility…technologies that require the highest security protection due to severe technological and/or security impacts if revealed • Simplicity…systems with limited external interfaces • Capacity…lean teams w/ green-door selective hiring authority • Currently able to execute 6-8 ACAT I-III equiv programs, with 10-15 programs at FOC • Currently executing 6 programs and 2 studies • Mission is to deliver block 0, possibly block 10, then transition to partner • Filling known gaps in the Space Warfighting Construct • Portfolio include strategic and tactical programs • Working hand-in-hand w/SMC, AFRCO, SSDP, others • Partnerships key to rapid development, without redundancy, to meet urgent warfighter needs

  16. Space RCO Contracting Authorities • Senior Contracting Official Authority • Designated Senior Contracting Official (SCO) • Will be codified in upcoming AFFARS update • $1B business and contract clearance authority on competitive and non-competitive acquisitions • Approve UCAs, tailor commercial acquisitions, grant Contracting Officer warrants • Competition and Commercial Advocate • Approve J&As $700K-$13.5M • Coordinate Acquisition Strategies • Government-Industry Liaison for SpRCO • OT Authority • Enter into, approve and terminate OTAs • Key Relationships / Memberships • Direct contracting report to SAF/AQC • AF Contracting Board of Directors membership • Development Teams…total force development Org Chart
