Join me as I sit down (virtually) with Major General Alice “Ali” T. to discuss Air Force contracting from a small business' perspective. She is an advocate of the partnership between industry and the DAF (United States Air Force and United States Space Force). Areas we might discuss: • Why does the Air Force 'want' to work with small business government contractors • Top areas small and mid-size businesses can support • Whether the Air Force is getting sufficient responses from small businesses during market research • What industry (especially smalls) might misunderstand about United States Department of the Air Force (DAF) contracting officers • AI's role in the Acquisition Lifecycle including in proposal writing ___________________________________ 🔥 Join 20,389 others and subscribe to our GovCon newsletter | https://lnkd.in/es6qfwgk 👀 Follow me (Neil McDonnell) on LinkedIn and hit the 🔔 on my profile to see more government contracting content like 34,720 other people do.

Amazing #Innovation and #Innovation being discussed at #Pactech24 in Honolulu, HI!

The Army SBIR Immersive and Wearables team is holding a virtual pitch event November 19-21 (via Army MS Teams) to showcase innovative physiological monitoring technologies from industry. Attendees will have the opportunity to learn about the technologies being developed in current SBIR Phase II efforts, ask questions, and become a sponsor for a follow-on Phase II effort. If you would like to receive an invite to this virtual event, please provide your email address at this link: https://lnkd.in/gHMy7Xzr

It was a packed house at the #Pactech24 in Honolulu, HI. Where Ms. Gina Sims hosted a panel of experts discussing DoD SBIR's...how they are different, what they are looking for, and any upcoming key dates. Matthew Willis, Ph.D.  Army SBIR|STTR Program, Brian Shipley  Department of the Navy SBIR/STTR Programs, Devin Brande  National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency and Paula Trimble Space Development Agency shared insights and key dates in their program. Find us today and let’s discuss your #technology and #Innovation. #SBIR #STTR #DoDInnovates #Reauthorization

Join us today at the #Pactech24 in Honolulu, HI where Ms. Gina Sims will host a panel titled "DoD SBIR/STTR Program Manager Focus Areas". The panel, consisting of Matthew Willis, Ph.D. Army SBIR|STTR Program, Brian Shipley Department of the Navy SBIR/STTR Programs, Devin Brande National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency and Paula Trimble Space Development Agency will be a speed round of DoD SBIR's...how they are different, what they are looking for, and any upcoming key dates.   The panel is scheduled for 1530 HST.   For more information, please visit: https://lnkd.in/extYrndS #SBIR #STTR #DoDInnovates #Reauthorization

Today, members of the Five Eyes intelligence partnership launched Secure Innovation, shared security guidance to help protect emerging technology companies from a range of threats, particularly those from nation-state actors. https://lnkd.in/grUakjZq

Looking to understand the #SBIR and #STTR program? This should be an incredible event! #DoDInnovates

Last week at the Association of the United States Army - AUSA - Annual Meeting & Exposition in Washington, D.C. we had a chance to connect with Systems Technology, Inc. (STI) to demonstrate how their #PARASIM® #parachute #simulator is elevating real-world mission readiness. Developed through the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I and II efforts across USSOCOM, Army SBIR|STTR Program and Department of the Navy SBIR/STTR Programs. STI presents the PARASIM® Virtual Reality Parachute Training Simulator. Designed for airborne operations and emergency aircrew egress, PARASIM® enables realistic training for pilot ejection and bailout scenarios across a range of military parachute systems, including the GQ 6000 (F-35), BA-30 Low Profile, C9 (ACES-2), and new GR-7000 (ACES-5).   PARASIM® integrates advanced features such as manual/override canopy release, Automatic Activation Device (AAD), and Oxygen with hypoxia simulation. Its dynamic, real-world simulations of canopy control, parachute malfunctions, and emergency response prepare aircrew to perform under pressure. By replicating various weather conditions and emergency scenarios, PARASIM® enhances decision-making, reduces risk, and save lives in critical situations.
