=== Vertical integration === In respect to production, Rocket Lab has focused on vertical integration (~90% inhouse), essentially controlling the process from raw material to orbit across 3 global sites. In Auckland, the company houses its launch vehicle R&D and manufacturing facilities along with its propulsion test sites (i.e., place to test-fire engines). Rocket Lab can assemble composite tanks, fairings, electrical harnesses, kick stages and much more here. Moreover, Mission Control Center for Electron is based here along with workstations for payload processing. Long Beach is home to engine and avionics manufacturing, utilizing specialized automated equipment and 3D printing. Rocket Lab is also expanding space systems manufacturing capabilities at this location, supporting Sinclair's existing footprint in Toronto.
