FORBES, April 22, 2022 – There has been much talk in defense circles of late about the need to tap “non-traditional” contractors for warfighting innovations.
A similar sentiment has taken hold at NASA, with the emphasis on turning to commercial space enterprises that are not captives of the federal bureaucracy.
Nevada-based Sierra Nevada Corporation has been a beneficiary of the search for new suppliers at the defense and space agencies, in part because it has demonstrated a willingness to invest its own money in developing novel solutions to national challenges.
