As a result of this direction, Boeing and the JDAM program office have formed a Product Improvement Program (PIP) Integrated Product Team (IPT). The PIP IPT will concentrate the near-term efforts in the following areas: 1) Evaluating the warfighters' precision JDAM requirements as expressed in the Joint Operational Requirements for JDAM; 2) Reviewing current precision guidance technologies for potential JDAM application; and 3) Defining the weapon system interface requirements concerning the integration of precision capability onto the JDAM weapon system and related JDAM-aircraft. Information on approaches to improve the accuracy of the baseline JDAM weapon system, which includes both seeker and non-seeker technologies, are sought by the PIP IPT. Information of interest includes the following: a) Company, b) Point of contact information, and c) Brief technical description of your precision guidance or guidance improvement technology approach. The PIP IPT anticipates releasing a more detailed Request For Information (RFI) package to qualified respondents of this synopsis. Interested foreign companies may submit a capabilities package, however the Government has yet to make a determination on foreign participation and the possibility does exists that they may be excluded from receiving the entire RFI package.
