Description
Professionally converted for accurate flowing-text e-book format reproduction, this study examines the case for commercially hosted military payloads (CHMP).
In many instances, what initially appears to be a common-sense solution with synergies to be gleaned by all is often fraught with nuances and complexities which make the implementation of solutions perceived as "common sense" difficult. I have found this to be the case for CHMP. That said, the current strong senior leader advocacy for CHMP coupled with the looming budget crisis might yield a perfect storm where the cultural and policy complexities that impede the implementation of CHMPs could be overcome. However, these complexities will not be overcome without a deliberate effort to ensure CHMPs are considered as an option by the acquisition professionals responsible for answering space-based requirements.
