Technology Symposium will be conducted in a separate facility on Fort
Huachuca from the APBI. On April 8, the APBI will continue with morning
briefs and the afternoon will be dedicated to a Business and Community
Exposition. APBI presenters from April 7 & 8 of the conference will be
available all afternoon for one-on-one and small group discussions.
Industry is invited to actively participate in this exposition (space
is limited, tables/discussion areas will be assigned on a first come
basis). Senior members of each Team Huachuca partner are scheduled to
give the APBI presentations. Presenters will highlight each
organization's goals and objectives and anticipated mission changes
over the next three to five years. Included among the APBI
presentations for contracting opportunities are: U.S. Army Intelligence
Center (USAIC), Joint Interoperability Test Center (JITC), U.S. Army
Information System Engineering Command (USAISEC), and U.S. Army Signal
Command (USASC). APBI presentations will be held in the Command

registration includes CD of APBI proceedings and accompanying Briefing
Book; lunch on Apr 7th with invited luncheon speaker Arizona Governor
Jane Hull; an Icebreaker Reception on April 7th which is sufficient
for a meal; a buffet luncheon in conjunction with the Business &
Community Exposition on April 8th; and continental breakfasts on both
April 7th and 8th. Dress code for all APBI conference sessions and
social events will be Arizona casual. The U.S. Army Intelligence Center
extends an invitation to Government and industry to attend the ISR. The
purpose of the ISR symposium is to provide feedback from the initial
ISR Technology Symposium which met on February 11, 1999 at Fort Monroe
and to offer an assessment of future Army ISR operational
requirements. ISR topics expected to be discussed include: planning and
synchronizing ISR assets, emerging technologies, and the integration of
the Army sensors across the Battlefield Operating Systems (BOS) and
sister services. A nominal ISR conference fee is expected. Industry
officials attend the ISR at no cost to the Government. The point of
contact for the ISR portion only is MAJ James V. Fink, email address
finkj@huachuca-emh1.army.mil, or phone (520) 538-0817. Posted 02/12/99
