About United Launch Alliance, L.l.c

United Launch Alliance, L.l.c (ULA) is a premier space launch services provider, established as a joint venture between Lockheed Martin and Boeing. Headquartered in Centennial, Colorado, ULA specializes in providing critical space launch capabilities for national security, defense, scientific, and commercial missions. The company operates primarily through its subsidiary United Launch Services, LLC, and offers comprehensive launch vehicle integration, assembly, testing, and launch operations using its Atlas V and Delta IV launch vehicle fleet. ULA has been a cornerstone provider of space launch services to the U.S. government, particularly for the Department of Defense, intelligence community, and NASA.

Through its federal contract awards, ULA has consistently demonstrated expertise in national security space launch services, primarily through contracts with the U.S. Air Force Space Command Space and Missile Systems Center. The company's contract awards predominantly focus on the National Security Space Launch (NSSL) Phase 2 and Phase 3 programs, which involve complex launch vehicle integration, mission-specific studies, trajectory and coupled loads analysis, and actual launch operations. These contracts support critical national security payloads, scientific missions, and intelligence community requirements. ULA has received numerous delivery orders ranging from small studies valued at $20,000 to large mission integration contracts exceeding $120 million. Notably, none of these contracts utilized set-aside designations, indicating ULA's competitive positioning in the federal contracting landscape.

ULA holds several significant Indefinite Delivery Vehicle (IDV) contracts that underscore its strategic importance in the space launch ecosystem. The most prominent is a $4.5 billion single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract for the National Security Space Launch Phase 2 program, which runs through March 2028. Additionally, the company has secured a $986 million multiple-award Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract with NASA's Kennedy Space Center for the Venture-Class Acquisition of Dedicated and Rideshare (VADR) Launch Services. ULA has also been awarded task orders under these IDVs from various agencies, including the Space and Missile Systems Center, Air Force Research Laboratory, and NASA.
