About this award

The Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory LLC (APL) was awarded a cost-plus-fixed-fee delivery order contract by the Space and Missile Systems Center (SMSC), a component of the U.S. Air Force Space Command, on November 16, 2018. The delivery order, valued at approximately $9.0 million with an ultimate completion date of January 7, 2022, supports space situational awareness (SSA) initiatives through systems engineering and architectural development efforts. The work is being performed at APL's facilities in Laurel, Maryland. This delivery order was not issued under a set-aside designation, indicating it was awarded through full and open competition based on technical merit and APL's demonstrated capabilities in space systems integration and advanced engineering services.

As a not-for-profit university-affiliated research center and child entity of The Johns Hopkins University, APL is well-positioned to execute this contract given its extensive experience delivering sophisticated research, development, and engineering solutions to national security agencies. The laboratory's proven track record includes numerous cost-plus-fixed-fee contracts with the SMSC and related defense agencies, covering complex technical domains including space system design, systems engineering, and technology maturation. The space situational awareness focus aligns with the Air Force's critical need to develop advanced capabilities for tracking, characterizing, and predicting satellite and space object behavior—essential functions for maintaining space superiority and supporting broader national security objectives.
