WP1 - Project Management
Project management on-going. Team structure split into technical teams + admin teams. Monthly project leadership team meetings to go through all roadblocks and progress on the project.
WP2 - Preparatory activities for market introduction
Implementation of a Commercial Plan that gives us info on: Short overview of the company, Market Analysis, Competition Analysis. Commercial team implemented to manage both business development with satellite operators but also partners such as: insurers, transport, SSA, sat manufacturers, separation systems, to increase visibility and implement complete offer for customers
WP3 - Commercial support activities
First iterations of PUG, Website and Commercial Growth plan completed, work ongoing to develop our legal & contractual framework.
WP4 - Integration of Ground Segment and Validation on Test Site
The Simplicity pre-qualification campaign successfully fulfilled all its objectives, validating both the design and operational principles of the Smart Ground Proximity Means (Smart GPM). All subsystems — electrical, fluidic, and mechanical — demonstrated nominal performance throughout the tests, confirming maturity and coherence within the integrated architecture.
Through the Simplicity bench and the Stage 2 Engineering Model (EM) interfaces, this phase successfully demonstrated the operational compatibility of the ground systems with the launcher subsystems. All main interfaces — mechanical, fluidic, and electrical/software — were tested and fine-tuned. The campaign confirmed that the Smart GPM architecture is mature, reliable, and operationally coherent with the launcher’s interface standards. Minor improvements identified during testing have been incorporated into the next iteration of the design.
However, as the complete Stage 2 hardware is not yet available, a complementary campaign will be conducted to verify final interface completeness and to perform coupled system tests under integrated conditions.
WP5 - First Launch Campaign & Feedback
Activities are planned in 2026 prior to Launch Campaign. First work for Smart GPM QR planned for 2026, however Launch Campaign delayed to early 2027.
