(U) A. Mission Description and Budget Item Justification - The Under Secretary of Defense (USD) for Acquisition and Technology (A&T) established the DoD Office of the Space Architect (OSA) to consolidate responsibilities for DoD space missions and system architecture development into a single organization in response to Congressional concerns regarding DoD space management. The DoD OSA integrates space architectures and systems, eliminates unnecessary vertical stovepiping of programs, and achieves efficiencies in acquisition and future operations through program integration, thus improving space support to military operations. The OSA obtains direct support from various space planning and development organizations across the federal government and industry for DoD space architecture planning and development.

Note: All funding was transferred to PE 0305917F for FY 1998 - 2003 to consolidate R&D and O&M appropriations into one Program Element.

(U) Acquisition Strategy: RDT&E funds will be used to obtain infrastructure support and direct support from various space planning and development organizations across the DoD and industry. This includes FFRDCs and contracted System Engineering and Technical Assistance (SETA) in direct support of DoD space architecture planning and development. Funds will be applied to existing contract vehicles.

- As primary support, the DoD Space Architect proposes to use two existing SMC contracts for technical support:

-- Engineering, Analysis, Design and Development (EADD) Contract; Nichols Research Corporation

-- Engineering, Analysis and Design (EAD) Contract; Nichols Research Corporation

- These contracts currently provide support to the Air Force Space and Missile Systems Center long-range planning, conceptual development, and engineering analysis and assessment efforts.
