INTELLIGENCE, SURVEILLANCE AND RECONNAISSANCE (ISR) INDUSTRY CONCEPT CALL AND INFORMATION SEMINAR. ELECTRONIC SYSTEMS CENTER DEVELOPMENT PLANNING DIRECTORATE (ESC/XR) TECHNICAL PLANNING INTEGRATED PRODUCT TEAM (TPIPT) POC: Capt Ivan Lopez (617) 271-4631, lopezi@tango-vs1.hanscom.af.mil, or Ms. Pam Hauser (617) 271-4630, ESC/XRTI, 50 Griffiss St, Hanscom AFB MA 01731-1624. As part of the Air Force Modernization Planning Process, the ISR TPIPT will host a Concept Development Seminar on 01 February 1996 for the purpose of introducing interested industry members to the USAF ISR Mission and Functional area deficiencies, and to invite industry participation in developing operational concepts to solve those deficiencies. The seminar will be held at MITRE Building M, Room 0M503, from 0900 - 1630 hours. ESC/XRTI has published a description of the Air Force Modernization Planning Process and a full list of the ISR deficiencies in the Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) library. The DTIC number will be provided at the seminar. This document is classified SECRET/NOFORN and will require certification of need to know and company facility clearance to receive a copy. ESC will make a DOS formatted disk copy (MS Word for Windows v6.0) of this document available, by pre-arrangement, at the seminar to participants with valid courier letters. ESC/XRTI intends to offer to enter into Cooperative Research and Development Agreements (CRDA) with any companies desiring to do so for the purpose of pursuing the development of promising or high payoff ISR concepts. CRDAs are described and discussed in the above referenced DTIC document. The Seminar will include presentations on the intelligence deficiencies, the Surveillance and Reconnaissance deficiencies, the Air Force Modernization Planning Process, the requested Solution Concept scope, format, and submission requirements, and the CRDA process. The Seminar will be conducted at the SECRET/NOFORN classification level. Those desiring to attend should notify Capt Lopez or Ms Hauser who will provide instructions for passing security clearances. The target audience is the Business Development and/or Research and Development Director level. Reservations for the event should be made with Capt Lopez or Ms Hauser. Please indicate, when making your reservation, whether you will require a copy of the ISR deficiency document in softcopy. Also, please ensure that individual and facility security clearance documentation is forwarded in sufficient time to be received by ESC/XRTI not later than 29 January 1996. Attendance at the Seminar is not a prerequisite for submission of deficiency solution concepts or for participation in a CRDA. The DTIC document provides all information necessary to enable a respondent to develop and submit suitable concepts. Attendance at the Seminar, however, will provide a valuable opportunity for questions and answers. The Government does not intend to award a contract on the basis of this solicitation. Participation is totally voluntary and will be uncompensated.
