Case Study: U.S. Space Force achieves faster, more resilient satellite operations with SAIC's GEMMA ground system

U.S. Space Force speeds contact configuration 93.33% with SAIC

The U.S. Space Force (USSF) required a modernized and secure ground infrastructure to support and ensure the reliability of its critical satellite operations. To meet this challenge, SAIC partnered with the USSF to develop and integrate a solution through its GEMMA ground system.

SAIC's GEMMA solution consolidated disparate components under a single authority, introducing virtualized front-end processors and modern cryptographic devices. The project was completed under budget and ahead of schedule, resulting in a 93.33% faster contact configuration and validated system readiness. This modernization eliminated operational inefficiencies that once cost hundreds of thousands of dollars per month, delivering significant savings and strengthening the enterprise's cyber posture for the future.
