Chantilly, VA – TriSept Corporation has been selected by NASA’s Launch Services Program (LSP) to integrate the first three missions of the Venture Class Launch Services (VCLS) contracts. This is a bold new move for NASA as they move to a more agile approach to launch. Only five companies were pre-selected with firm fixed-price indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity contracts to compete for the VCLS launches, TriSept being one of them.
TriSept will be responsible for providing all services, facilities, and resources required to support the launch Integration efforts on:
- Rocket Lab – Electron – 14 payloads
- Virgin Galactic – Launcher One – 17 payloads
- Firefly – Firefly Alpha – 12 payloads
Each manifest contains NASA provided CubeSat’s of varying size and weight (1U through 6U), providing a complexity challenge to the integration of the manifest. While the SmallSat arena is now starting to bloom, TriSept is more than experienced enough to handle the integration needs of a growing industry. TriSept has spent the majority of its career in aerospace in the integration of large and small satellites, and multiple payload launches. Founded in 1994, TriSept’s core services include launch integration, program management and systems engineering, software architecture and development, as well as program information assurance.
