SUMMARY:Air Force Distributed Common Ground System (AF DCGS) Virtual Industry Day
DESCRIPTION:The Air Force Lifecycle Management Center’s (AFLCMC) Command and Control Intelligence Surveillance and Reconnaissance (C2ISR) Directorate\, AF DCGS Program Office is hosting a virtual Industry Day on 29 August 2023. The purpose of this industry day is to increase industry awareness of future requirements in support of the AF DCGS weapon system\, acquire market research for multiple AF DCGS project teams\, and solicit feedback from industry representatives to increase competition opportunities for future initiatives\, develop acquisitions strategies\, and understand risks.\nThe AF DCGS Program Office is attempting to expand its business base and maximize competition on future requirements through FY29 comprising approximately 34 projected contracts slated for competitive or sole-source award. AF DCGS has identified requirements within historically sole source contracts and requests Industry engagement on these specific requirements to ensure the Government continues to meet its requirement of full and open competition and to maximize the Industrial competitive space for AF DCGS technology solutions.\nWe welcome collaboration with industry to critically review our requirements and discuss mutual issues and concerns relative to our requirements. This virtual industry day will feature an open briefing on each of the upcoming DCGS projects to include their general requirements\, competition factors\, and anticipated timelines.\n\nAfter each project is briefed\, we will open the floor for a brief discussion on each acquisition and its specific requirements. We will also accept questions in writing\, to be answered following the conclusion of the Industry Day and posted on SAM.gov for Industry to access. Future industry days will be more focused and individualized to cover the specific details of upcoming acquisitions. \n\nThe Government does not intend to award a contract on the basis of the information received at this event. This Industry Day is for informational purposes only. The contents of any future RFPs take precedence over anything provided during this briefing. Questions and answers will be posted to SAM.gov and are considered public record. Any costs incurred as a result of this meeting are considered bid and proposal costs and will not be reimbursed by the Government. Each of the projected requirements discussed will be further refined in the future and advertised on SAM.gov as required when applicable. The market research conducted for each requirement will dictate the type of contract used\, but we foresee use of fixed price to cost-type contracts.\nIf your company is interested in participating in this Virtual Industry Day\, please REGISTER at https://forms.gle/vmhyT2xnxwgCBCVf6 by 14 August 2023. Contact Capt Jessica Graham(Program Manager)\, jessica.graham.4@us.af.mil\, and copy Mr. Barry Frank (Contracting Officer)\, Barry.Frank@us.af.mil\, if you have any further questions. Due to theexpected level of interest in the program\, we are requesting company participation be limited to just one (1) meeting login each due to the parameters of our Microsoft Teams teleconference.\n\nPrimary Point of Contact: \nJessica Graham jessica.graham.4@us.af.mil  \nSecondary Point of Contact  \nBarry Frank barry.frank@us.af.mil
