- Description
- 30 Nov 18: An additional set of questions and answers is posted. ---------- 14 Nov 18: IDIQ PWS version 2 and the draft SOO for Cloud Analysis and Forecast (CAF) Development and Integration. ---------- 5 Nov 18: Although we have continued to make progress on building multiple documents for the RFP, the Government is not ready for a December 2018 Industry Day #2 to effectively present the solicitation requirements. Industry Day #2 will occur at a date no earlier than 15 January 2019. The actual date is yet to be determined. ---------- 11 Oct 18: A slide deck for today's teleconference is attached. ---------- 5 Oct 18: I plan to hold a short conference call on 11 October 2018 at 2pm Central Time to present a quick update on the current status and path ahead. The dial-in number is (605) 472-5311, access code 260237. This conference call will be recorded. ---------- 11 Sep 18: the Government team is working on building the initial bidder's library; all artifacts are expected to be unclassified. To request a copy of the documents need to send an email to Mr. Justin Pedersen at justin.pedersen.3@us.af.mil with the name, email address, and phone number for the individual responsible for receipt. ---------- 27 Aug 18: the current plan is for Acquisition Strategy approval on/arround the first half of October. The strategy has been revised in several aspecs: 1) expecting a 5-year ordering period on the IDIQ which will equate to a maximum of 7 years of performance. 2) the reduced length results in an expected IDIQ value of $600 million to $700 million 3) although Air Force weather still has a long-term goal of migrating to a 'cloud' environment, we are not sufficiently prepared to include a cloud migration task order on the TADS competition. Currently, we are tentatively expecting Industry Day #2 to occur in December 2018. ---------- 12 Jul 18: The first draft of the IDIQ PWS and an additional set of questions and answers is posted. ---------- 24 May 18: An additional set of questions and answers is posted. ---------- 25 Apr 18: An initial set of questions and answers is posted. We are continuing to work on the remaining questions. ---------- 20 Apr 18: The Government team is continuing to diligently work on providing the written answers after the industry day. This is taking more time that previously anticipated because there are more than 180 separate questions. Concurrently, we are making progress on multiple documents and artifacts required to support the acquisition strategy. The current focus is on completing the PWS and building the initial bidder's library. ---------- 29 Mar 18: Presentations and attendees from the industry day are posted. Note: the presentation titled "557 WW Architecture & Transition Plan Tasks" is not posted due to operational security considerations; however, the slides are available via email upon request. ---------- 25 Jan 18: The current plan for Industry Day on 20 March is: 7:45-8:30: Sign-in 8:30-11:30: Presentations from -Air Force Life Cycle Management Center -557th Weather Wing -Space & Missiles Systems Center -55th Contracting Squadron 12:30-5:00: Tours of Building 185.
