Giving private companies the funding they need to launch their own space station and then becoming a commercial customer of said space station.

Is that happening?

As far as I understand, yeah.

Haven-1 is scheduled to launch NET 2025, the Axiom orbital segment is NET 2026, Orbital Reef is targeting 2027, and Starlab is targeting 2028. Even if these schedules slip a couple years, they would still be ready in time for the ISS deorbit in (or after) 2030.
