The Space Force stood up a new $1.2 billion annual working capital fund in October 2025 — and the SDVOSB firm running program management for the office that controls it is expiring September 17, 2026. HC102821F1081, a $12.3M service-disabled veteran-owned small business set-aside held by Athena Technology Group, supports the USSF Commercial Satellite Communications Office — the sole DoD authority for procuring $7 billion in commercial SATCOM services. Five offers competed at award. DISA issued the contract. The Space Force now runs the office. April 27, proposals closed on COSMOS — the adjacent Space Force SATCOM support solicitation issued by SpOC at Peterson, not DISA. COSMOS is not the follow-on to this contract. The CSCO PMO recompete hasn't posted yet. One window just closed. One is still open.

Most BD teams see "DISA contract" on this PIID and route it to their DISA pipeline. That's the first mistake. The second is assuming the CSCO PMO role stays the same at recompete. The FY2026 spend plan executes PE 1206445SF at 54% of enacted — $68.554M against $127.261M on the books — because the COMSATCOM infrastructure build is winding down mid-cycle, not because the mission is shrinking. FY2027 through 2030 shows zero RDT&E requested for both COMSATCOM Integration and Commercial Services. The build is done. Meanwhile, Space Superiority SATCOM O&M is up $85.5M in FY2027, specifically for anti-jamming integration and bandwidth resilience. The PMO supporting this office in September 2026 needs to be built for adversarial threat environments and operational continuity — not infrastructure deployment. The firms preparing for the old PWS will lose to the team that read the O&M line.
