What Is GOCaaS™?
Breaking Down Our Innovative Spacecraft Operations Center
GOCaaS manages single satellites or large constellations, provides telemetry data analysis, vehicle and constellation state of health, commanding, tracking, orbit determination and maneuver planning, and station keeping required to maintain vehicle(s) in orbit. GOCaaS TT&C Operations comes with built in commercial software support for AES-256 encryption/decryption capabilities for unclassified operations, or any classification with approved COMSEC and cross domain solutions.
GoCaaS™ can be operated in a cloud-based environment or from a local network, supporting multiple missions.

Parsons Satellite Operations Center (PSOC)
Automated Satellite Operations And Cloud Data Delivery
We provide experienced operators, automated contacts, and cloud data delivery to an on-premises data server, S3 bucket, or any desired hybrid approach. Our satellite operators utilize our Ace Premier software suite for an end-to-end solution. Additionally, operators perform and monitor contacts using CtrlPoint™ for both manual and fully autonomous processes.
Before operations, operators test and approve Electronic Command Plans (ECPs) generated by Parsons Command Plan Builder. ECPs feed into CtrlPoint™ and provide manual operational instructions or automated contacts with error-handling capabilities. Furthermore, the Optimyz™ scheduling tool and CtrlPoint™ provide connection points between OrbitXchange™ and the SOC for complete situational awareness. Individual Azure cloud-based enclaves provide single-string contacts for customer security and easy expandability.
