Ground Station as a Service

The NOAA Office of Satellite and Product Operations intends to award a sole‑source, firm‑fixed‑price contract (estimated $7 M‑$10 M) to ATLAS Space Operations Inc. for “Ground Station as a Service.” The work includes certification of ground‑station sites, providing scalable telemetry, tracking, and command (TT&C) aperture services, and delivering satellite‑to‑ground communication for multiple environmental and research missions. ATLAS is the only vendor possessing the required international spectrum licenses and fully compliant ground‑station network, making a competitive award infeasible. Interested parties may submit capability statements, though the solicitation is not a request for proposals.
