PUBLIC REQUEST FOR TECHNICAL INFORMATION ON AIR FORCE TECHNOLOGY AREA PLANNING (TAP) IN SUPPORT OF MISSION AREA PLANS (MAP). The Air Force Research Laboratory, Phillips Site, Kirtland Air Force Base, NM invites interested representatives from industry to join us in support of the TAP and MAP process for FY2000. Information provided will form the basis of government space concept and technology recommendations for inclusion in the Air Force Science and Technologies Program Objective Memorandum (POM), AFSPC MAP, AFSPC modernization planning and AFSPC POM. The goals/objectives for the SPR are to: a. Provide PL directorates and industry with an understanding of user deficiencies and technology requirements. b. Specifically identify prioritized mission area deficiencies and most favored system concepts/tech needs that satisfy the deficiencies. c. Provide industry the opportunity to understand customer technology requirements and adjust long term IR&D planning. This year's one and a half day format will be devoted to both space and non-space mission areas. Representatives from AFSPC/XPX and SMC/XR will present asummary status of the space mission areas on Day 1. Representatives from ASC, ESC, ACC, and AIA will present areas of interest to PL technical directors on Day 2. We hope to gain some sense of priority among mission area deficiencies as well as potential system concepts and technology needs from development planners. The emphasis on the Strategic Planning Review (SPR) is on technology planning. At the SPR, user and major command planners will present the prioritized mission area deficiencies, solution requirements, concept descriptions, and technology needs. It is requested that industry attendees be the engineers and scientists involved in your company's technology programs and planning. These participants should be knowledgeable of and able to understand the technical issues. This review is for information only, NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL, and as such does not commit the government to pay for any costs incurred. THIS IS A PLANNING PROCESS AND IN NO WAY IS TO BE CONSTRUED AS A SOLICITATION. As always,contracting opportunities resulting from this planning are presented during the 98 PL Briefing For Industry (BFI). The Strategic Planning Review will be held on 25 and 26 September 1997 at the Phillips Site Conference Center, Kirtland AFB, New Mexico.
