This multiple-award Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) was awarded by the U.S. Space Force (USSF) Space Systems Command (SSC) to provide launch services for the National Security Space Launch (NSSL) Phase 3 Lane 1 program. The $5.6 billion IDC has a 5-year base period and 5-year option period, and aims to ensure affordable and assured access to space for critical national security space missions and NASA programs. The contract was awarded to United Launch Services, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of United Launch Alliance, L.L.C. (ULA), which specializes in launch vehicle integration, assembly, testing, and launch operations. There is no set-aside designation for this procurement. Task orders under the IDC will primarily be for launch services utilizing ULA's Atlas V and Delta IV launch vehicle fleet, with performance largely in El Segundo, California. The original solicitation was a competitive Request for Proposal (RFP) that will be reopened annually to on-ramp emerging providers or systems, supporting the government's goal of providing affordable access to space.
