Space system programs not only are technically complex but also face programmatic challenges, including differing expectations among stakeholders, acquirers, and developers. Addressing these complexities and challenges often results in unstable requirements, schedule delays, and cost growth.

Booz Allen Hamilton works across the space industry, helping defense, civil, and intelligence community clients apply new technologies, integrate space operations, and use innovative strategies to address the technical, cost, schedule, and risk of space systems development to help clients maximize the probability of program success. Our multidisciplinary professionals include experts across a broad range of space systems and technologies (e.g., spacecraft, ground systems, and missiles) and functional capabilities (e.g., cost and economic analysis, systems engineering and integration [SE&I], and market analysis).

Our Work

Booz Allen partners with clients to strategically approach space systems using mission engineering, SE&I, logistics planning, technology development, information technology (IT) infrastructure, total baseline integration, cost and budget analysis, and application of commercial best practices.
