SUMMARY:The Sandhills Project - "Future Breaching Experiment"
DESCRIPTION:Description: The Future Breaching Experiment integrates the efforts of leading industry partners\, research and development institutes\, and Service members to address the evolving character of ground combat. The experiment seeks to highlight current breaching capabilities through practice and live experimentation in simulated conditions. Experimentation occurs on realistic and challenging obstacles replicating real-world challenges observed abroad. The obstacles are derived from two operational vignettes: complex obstacles in depth (2-3km) and a dispersed defense network in urban terrain. \nTheme: Innovation and Breaching – leveraging current capabilities for rapid implementation. \nEvent Problem Statement: US and partnered nations must maneuver through an extensive obstacle effort several kilometers in depth. The obstacle effort is under persistent observation\, referenced for indirect fires\, and subject to signal interference. US and partnered nations must also maneuver through dispersed obstacle effort in within dense urban terrain. The obstacle effort is under heightened observation from civilian structures\, referenced for indirect fires\, and subject to enemy and structural signal interference\, increased usage of barriers and structural fires leveraged as weapons. \nObjectives:  \n\nDemonstrate and experiment with current capabilities in: obstacle intelligence\, obscuration\, and obstacle neutralization/reduction\nIntegrate and mesh disparate platforms (e.g. sUAS\, mechanical and explosive reduction) into a functioning capability\nHighlight current capability gaps for future experimentation\n\nRSVP POCs: MAJ Robert Howell (robert.b.Howell22.mil@army.mil) (910-262-7303); MAJ Steven Calhoun (steven.l.calhoun.mil@army.mil).​​

SUMMARY:Small Business Qualifications for Federal Contractors\, Advantages and Application Processes - Pt 2
DESCRIPTION:Small Business Program Qualifications for Federal Contractors\, Advantages and Application Processes (GCAP\, if they don’t teach it then NCMBC\, Local BDP) Learn about different Small Business Programs that can help set you apart when competing for Federal contracts. Learn about the various socio-economic set asides\, minimum qualifications\, and advantages of these qualifiers. We will also direct you to the appropriate resources to help you get the appropriate certifications without spending any money! This session is ideal for companies who have been in business for at least 2-3 years on the commercial side and are exploring expanding and/or diversifying their business to work with the Federal Government. This session is not appropriate for people who want to learn how to start a business. We recommend SBTDC or the local Apex Accelerators for that. PLEASE NOTE THIS IS AN IN PERSON SESSION AT THE SMALL BUSINESS CENTER \nSpeaker(s): Reena Bhatia and  Daniel Quinn\, North Carolina Military Business Center (NCMBC) \nFee: No Cost \nRegister Online\nAlready Registered?
