National Security Technology Accelerator (NSTXL)

The United States Space Force's Space and Missile Systems Center awarded the Space Enterprise Consortium (SpEC) consortium manager agreement to NSTXL on January 15, 2021. The award had been delayed due to a judgment against NSTXL in a Texas court, which occurred separate from the consortium management agreement.

NSTXL membership and networks include business, universities, laboratories, incubators, investors and entrepreneurs with technologies spanning energy, cyber-security, biomedical, advanced materials, and nanotechnology.

NSTXL works to prospect, vet and fund commercial and university-based R&D that support specific Department of Defense and national security technical requirements; mentor members for more successful funding and development interactions with U.S. national security organizations and stakeholders; facilitate opportunities for interaction and deal-flow among universities, large and small companies, and the military; and, create workforce development and entrepreneurship opportunities for veterans.

NSTXL is an Other Transaction Authority (OTA) used by the Department of Defense in order to streamline acquisitions. Originally launched in the 1950s during the Space Race, Other Transaction Authorities offer the ability to execute contracts outside of the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) process in order to attract nontraditional defense contractors.

OTAs have increased in popularity, but some feel the OTA represents a loophole in the checks and balances in the Federal Acquisition Regulation. Meanwhile, others feel that new regulations would stop firms like NSTXL from being able to act quickly on innovation and developments.
