Virgin Orbit Holdings Inc's Comment on Supply Chain


Virgin Orbit?s is headquartered in Long Beach, CA having a combined facility of 195,000 square feet. The main building (Conant) is 151,000 square feet and houses office space and a large manufacturing floor and our second building (McGowen) is 44,000 square feet and houses training, customer experience, offices, payload processing and additional manufacturing space. Since moving in to the Long Beach facilities, we have invested significantly in our production facilities, which will allow us to scale rapidly over the next few years. The vast majority of our design, engineering, manufacturing, integration, assembly and test activities occur in our main building. Our engineering team works directly adjacent to the LauncherOne production and assembly line, which features state-of-the-art manufacturing equipment and custom-built test rigs. Our automated composites fabrication process enables us to build rocket tanks in days versus months. We also have a relationship with DMG MORI that allows us to leverage their advanced manufacturing technology helping reduce cycle time by up to 10 times for key components. Our operations are highly integrated, with over 90% of each rocket built in-house. There are currently four rockets in production and our facility has the tooling, processes and technology to support a production capacity up to 20 rockets annually. The factory is highly scalable with easy expansion of production capabilities through floor space addition and optimization and additional copies of key tooling.
Our McGowen building is located near our headquarters in Long Beach and houses our payload processing facility where our customers? payloads are encapsulated after spacecraft receipt, inspection and testing are completed. The Virgin Orbit team conducts high-energy testing near the Mojave Air and Space Port in Mojave, California, where there are multiple custom-built test stands for liquid propulsion, composite tank, component, and overall stage testing. Acceptance testing for LauncherOne?s Newton family of engines occurs at our horizontal test stands, and stage tests are performed on vertical test stands.

Our ability to manufacture and operate our rockets is dependent upon sufficient availability of raw materials and supplied components, including RP-1 (which is our rocket fuel) and hydrogen, helium, liquid oxygen and nitrogen, which are the gases used in our rockets.
We obtain raw materials and components from reputable and reliable suppliers, following established internal quality control processes to source suppliers, considering quality, cost, delivery and lead-time. We have a quality management team that is responsible for managing and ensuring that supplied raw materials and components meet all necessary quality standards. While we largely source raw materials and components from multiple sources, in some cases raw materials and components are sourced from a limited number of suppliers. In these situations, as we endeavor to diversify our supply chain, we manage this risk through using material requirements planning, including material forecasting and planning, safety stock, and bulk and advance buying with focused efforts on long-lead items.
