Colonial Services

Construction, management, and operation of colonial infrastructures and essential services.

Developing worlds, newly contacted planets, and fresh colonies require essential infrastructure and services to operate efficiently. Worlds with extreme climates, exotic atmospheres, or scarce resources depend on technological imports, implementation, management, maintenance, and administration of multiple services to ensure the colony’s survival.

These services include power supply, waste management, potable water distribution, life support, communications, and logistics, among many other specific needs. Across developed worlds in the galaxy, governments have extensively practiced service outsourcing since the pre-stellar era.

Corporations provide these services to independent colonial communities that prefer to focus on their core activities — such as agriculture, industry, or mining — without taking on the burden of administrative and operational management of the colony.

Corporations operating in this sector act as support providers for settlements, relying on the interstellar market to ensure colonies can focus on their activities without worrying about structural needs. Controlling these services allows corporations to establish dependency relationships with colonies, securing long-term profits and a strategic position within planetary politics.

Choosing a corporation that operates in the colonial services sector is a suitable option for players who prefer to start the game with strong political relationships and a steady source of income.
