Colorado Base To Oversee Military Infrastructure Investments
The U.S. Space Force has relocated its Infrastructure Portfolio Acquisition Executive (PAE) to Peterson Space Force Base in Colorado Springs, overseeing a $4 billion infrastructure portfolio. The move is part of the Space Force’s acquisition system overhaul, aimed at reducing review layers and empowering PAEs with broad authority. The new facility will support the development, evaluation, and fielding of advanced space systems, and is expected to create 2,500 civilian jobs. This development was first reported by Business Facilities Magazine.
