As governmental A&D organizations publish their funding priorities each year, it’s crucial for commercial A&D companies to know what areas they should focus on so they can meet those particular needs. For example, one of NASA’s top expense areas this year is space operations with a focus on safety security, while Japan’s space agency focus for the second half of the year will be, in part, the development of a novel information gathering system.
