New Program Aims to Keep Multi-Billion Dollar Projects on Budget
The US Space Force has awarded a new contract to Integrate, a Seattle-based firm, for its AI-enabled project management program. The contract aims to help the service keep its multi-billion-dollar national security projects on track and on budget. The Space Systems Integration Office, which oversees the service’s acquisitions programs, has a growing list of projects, including the Space Data Network and the Space-Based Airborne Moving Target Indicator. The service’s $71.3 billion budget request this year, if passed, would mark the largest percentage increase for any military branch since 1952, according to Aerospace America. This development was first reported by Defense One.
