collaborative effort will be a Golf Tournament (open to APBI & ISR

morning and afternoon APBI briefs. Approximately, one hour of this
briefing time will be dedicated to the ISR. On April 8, the ISR
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). A draft agenda is available through the Team Huachuca website
(www.isec-sig.army.mil/teamhua) and the Coronado Chapter of the
National Contract Management Association (NCMA) website
(www.coronado-ncma.org). 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
Theater at Greely Hall on Fort Huachuca. An early APBI sign-in

registration includes CD of APBI proceedings and accompanying Briefing
Book; lunch on Apr 7th (speaker to be announced); an Icebreaker

luncheon in conjunction with the Business & Community Exposition on
April 8th; and continental breakfasts on both April 7th and 8th. Dress

Arizona casual. The U.S. Army Intelligence Center extends an invitation
to government and industry to attend the Intelligence, Surveillance,
and Reconnaissance (ISR) Symposium held 0800-1200 on 8 April 1999 in
Alverado Auditorium. As a result of the senior-level ISR Symposium held
on February 11, 1999 at Fort Monroe, the U.S. Army Intelligence Center
Combat Developments Division is leading an effort to integrate ISR
requirements across the Army. The purpose of this meeting is to: (1)
provide feedback and results from the initial meeting to the ISR
community; (2) offer a description of the future of ISR development;
(3) present the current draft ISR Army Concept; and (4) suggest areas
within the Army ISR Campaign Plan for applicable industry solutions.
Unlike the other briefings being held during the APBI, the ISR
Symposium is targeted toward those government and industry personnel
familiar with the ISR subject area. No ISR conference fee is expected.
Industry officials attend the ISR Symposium at no cost to the
Government. POC for registration is SFC Austin at (520) 538-1431, or
via the preferred method of Email, at austinb@huachuca-emh1.army.mil.
Because of the technical scope of the ISR Symposium, registration is
separate from the overall APBI. Posted 03/16/99 (W-SN308862). Loren Data Corp. http://www.ld.com (SYN# 0553 19990318\SP-0011.MSC)
