The Air Force is specifically seeking ways to make support equipment lighter, cheaper and more flexible, while remaining capable of achieving desired functions and objectives. This imperative will set the tone for the Air Force�s future and senior leaders across the Air Force have been appointed as operational and acquisition leads for each imperative to perform analysis within an aggressive timeline to generate FY24 POM recommendations for the Secretary by the end of March 2022. This RFI supports the analysis for ONE of these imperatives, specifically OI #5, to inform future budget and program decisions. Additional separate RFI�s may be issued in support of other imperatives. Where possible, the Air Force would like to understand within your responses how your technology and operational concepts for this imperative could enable, connect, and contribute across all 7 imperatives. We would also like to understand the scalability and adaptability of your proposed concepts. This RFI has an accelerated delivery timeline and is issued for informational purposes only and does not constitute a solicitation or commit the government to award a contract now or in the future.� Submitting information for this RFI is voluntary, and participants will not be compensated.� Your response to this RFI will be treated as information only.� No entitlement to payment of direct or indirect costs or charges by the Government will arise as a result of contractor submission of responses to this announcement or the Government�s use of such information.� This request does not constitute a solicitation for proposals or the authority to enter into negotiations to award a contract.� No funds have been authorized, appropriated, or received for this effort.� The information provided may be used by the AF in developing its acquisition strategy, statement of work/statement of objectives, and performance specifications.� Interested parties are responsible for adequately marking proprietary or competition sensitive information contained within their response as instructed later in this posting.
