Bringing Space Within Reach
Founded in 2001, Qwaltec provides end-to-end mission operations services for space programs. From system architecture and ground systems engineering to spacecraft operations and software development, it supports NASA, NOAA, DoD, and commercial space customers across the full mission lifecycle. It also offers OrbitCmd, a proprietary satellite command and control software product, and custom training programs.
Provides ground systems support and engineering analysis for commercial and government space programs from development to de-orbit. Services cover execution across multiple mission control centers with optimized operations, maintenance, and communications.
Prepares spacecraft missions through detailed planning, product development, and operational training. Work ensures readiness for both nominal and off-nominal scenarios across all phases of launch and on-orbit operations.
Delivers tailored engineering solutions for the entire lifecycle of complex space flight programs, spanning design, realization, technical management, and retirement. Work incorporates both document-based and model-based approaches to align with budget and schedule requirements.
Develops custom applications and optimizations throughout the mission lifecycle, focusing on command and control, mission planning, and real-time operations. Solutions integrate modern interface technologies and extensions to maximize mission success.
Designs and delivers specialized instruction for satellite operators, mission teams, and antenna installers to prepare for initial launch and system transitions. Programs cover custom operator workflows and ground segment migrations.
Assembles and upgrades customized command centers for diverse platforms, including unmanned aerial systems, rocket engines, and satellite networks. Services cover the full lifecycle from design to operational integration.
Evaluates mission frameworks and operational concepts to ensure optimal system health and organizational effectiveness. Analysis covers ground systems validation, fleet monitoring, and the adaptation of control concepts to non-aerospace domains.
