The Operational Responsive Space (ORS) program requires flexible and responsive satellites to meet user's needs. Traditional satellite design methods are typically iterative processes that optimize individual components, subsystems, and ultimately the entire satellite. This study focuses on developing a new approach for creating Responsive Satellites (RS) from Plug-and-Play (PnP) components. The aim is to create an approach that quickly evaluates a wide variety of possible satellite configurations and identify the best configurations that meet the users' needs and constraints. Satellite configurations are created by matching locations on the satellite structure with PnP components. Various constraints are derived from the users' inputs at different levels of the configuration process. As the user provides more information related to PnP satellite, additional constraints can be applied to reduce the number of PnP satellite configurations resulting in manageable numbers or even zero configurations. In the research, we found that applying constraints whenever it I applicable results in eliminating invalid configurations.
