1 Introduction The Space Command and Control (C2) government System Program Office (SPO) is responsible for developing software and the supporting architecture for the Organize, Understand, Plan, Decide, Direct, and Monitor capabilities within the C2 Joint Capability Areas (JCAs). The program plans to employ a modular contracting strategy to take advantage of managing and implementing separate lines of effort. Line of Effort (LOE) 0 provides the foundational structure for Systems Engineering, Integration, and Test (SEIT) and security-classification-specific Infrastructure, Platform, Networks, and Data layers (LOE1) (Figure 1). LOE0 and LOE1 support cross-capability integration, test, and fielding for Space C2 software developed using an Agile-based, Development, Security, and Operations (DevSecOps) Rapid Delivery Framework.

Software development and capabilities primarily support LOE2 Space Domain Awareness, LOE3 Theater Support, and LOE4 Space Defense. The software LOEs are focused on individual customer requirements to tailor software development for the unique operational mission areas and to simplify customer prioritization of the product backlog for each mission area.

The Space C2 Program Office will provide customer support by establishing a 24 hours-a-day, 7-days a week (24/7) Network Operations Center (NOC) at Vandenberg Space Force Base (VSFB) at the Secret and Top Secret / Sensitive Compartmented Information (TS/SCI) levels. The NOC provides 24/7 product support such as operational dashboard monitoring, call tree notifications, and general “Tier 1” support as shown in Figure 2. This support spans Space C2 software products, WarpCore (Data as a Service) data layer, and Space C2 on-prem infrastructure (known as C2 Operational [C2Ops] environment) through dashboard(s) on the Space C2 WarpCore system and initial SPO-provided procedures.

The 24/7 NOC scope includes Tier 1 network support using network-provided dashboard(s) and procedure(s) for the Space Awareness Resilient Tactical Network (SPARTAN) and Space Domain Awareness Network (SDANet), at a minimum. The 24/7 NOC utilizes insights from other networks, such as but not limited to MeshOne-T, Space Defense Interface Network (SDIN), Communications Processing System (CPS), to report out issues identified and associate scope of impacts.

The Space C2 Program also requires regular duty hours infrastructure and operations support, this includes system administration and maintenance of on-prem hardware (C2Ops and TBD MOSSAIC Scope). The 24/7 NOC principally resides within LOE1 and supports LOEs 0, 2, 3, and 4 within the total Space C2 portfolio.

<TBD paragraph on Maintenance of Space Situational Awareness Integrated Capabilities (MOSSAIC) Scope>

This contract scope is grouped in the following categories:

- General support to users including Tier 0 and Tier 1 actions and system monitoring.

- Software monitoring of all Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) and Government-Off-The- Shelf (GOTS) software. DRAFT

CUI 6

- Network support and monitoring of all network feeds that impact C2 SDA to include Tier 1 support to SPARTAN and SDAnet.

- Infrastructure support to physical hardware.

- Legacy systems and infrastructure support inherited from MOSSAIC

- A transition plan to ensure continuous 24/7 monitoring and support.
