The Space Development Agency (SDA) is seeking input on the agency’s Draft Tranche 1 NDSA Experimental Testbed (NExT) Other Transaction solicitation.
SDA plans to solicit solutions for space systems to serve as a Warfighter evaluation platform for experiments of interest to military users. These space vehicles will demonstrate and evaluate new mission payloads for proliferation in future tranches.
This draft solicitation is for the development, manufacture, test, launch integration of GFE (Government Furnished Equipment) payloads, and deployment of NExT space vehicles, payloads, and mission-enabling ground systems.
