The ability to rapidly re-constitute space-based capabilities or re-supply time-sensitive cargo at precise locations on-orbit or terrestrially is a critical but presently under-developed capability for the DoD. In response, Defense Innovation Unit (DIU) launched the Novel Responsive Space Delivery (NRSD) project to prototype commercial solutions that enable responsive and precise point-to-point delivery to orbit, between vehicles in orbit, and to precisely to Earth via novel reentry vehicles and methods. The first of a number of awards has been issued with more to follow in the coming months. The Spaceport Company National Security Innovation Capital

When Defense Innovation Unit (DIU) launched in 2015, our goal was to rebuild a bridge between the Department of Defense and the tech sector. We then went on to prove a model of  prototyping and then scaling  a process where  United States Department of Defense challenges could be solved through commercial solutions,  in months rather than years. Now, we are evolving into our next phase, leveraging commercial technology, and our proven process for even greater strategic impact. “The challenge now is to take the capabilities developed during DIU 2.0 and apply them with the focus, scale, and speed necessary to deliver the strategic effect required. This is what DIU 3.0 is all about,” Doug Beck, director of DIU. Read more about the public DIU 3.0 plan that we published in partnership with the Center for a New American Security (CNAS), and what it means for the future of the national security innovation base.

Defense Innovation Unit (DIU)'s mission is to accelerate commercial technology to solve our nation's most critical #nationalsecurity challenges. But we know that navigating the DoD ecosystem is not always easy. With that in mind, we've created a series of short videos to help you better understand and navigate our unique process, from solicitation to prototype contract. Featuring answers to questions that our own Program Managers and Commercial Engagement team members encounter from companies. You can watch the full series here: https://lnkd.in/eRAAeU3n #FrontDoortoDoD #technology NSIN - National Security Innovation Network National Security Innovation Capital
