Air Force Raises Funding Ceiling for the Space Enterprise Consortium

Advanced Technology International, Summerville, South Carolina, has been awarded a $400,000,000 modification (P00015) to contract FA8814-18-9-0002 to increase the ceiling of the other transactions agreement for the Space Enterprise Consortium.

The objectives of the agreement include: minimizing barriers to entry for small businesses and non-traditional vendors to work with the U.S. government and to identify and realize teaming opportunities among entities to promote integrated research and prototyping efficiencies; and reducing the cost of prototype development. Work will be performed in Summerville, South Carolina, and is expected to be completed November 1, 2023. No funds are being obligated with this award. Total cumulative face value of the contract is $500,000,000. The Space and Missile Systems Center, Los Angeles Air Force Base, California, is the contracting activity.
