    Governments. For example NASA commissioned the design of previous manned rockets. They may contract out the design and construction of various parts, but the overall design and oversight was conducted by the government. For example, the Mercury capsule was designed and built by McDonnell aircraft, and the Atlas launcher by Convair. But, the overall requirements and oversight was performed by NASA. For the current commercial contract, NASA defines the requirements and reviews the design to meet them, but it allows the commercial company the freedom to develop their own design to meet the broad requirements. NASA doesn't oversee the design along the way.
