Add this to your calendar now! The cornerstone of America’s defense remains deterrence! But to remain competitive, we must consider and test new concepts and strategies. Check out this professional development opportunity with National Institute for Deterrence Studies tomorrow to learn more!

This has been an exciting week! We had the incredible opportunity to participate in Air Force Global Strike Command's CCIT demonstration of the prototype Armored F-350, featuring the revolutionary IRIS technology from Outerlink Global Solutions.  IRIS is set to transform safety and operational efficiency in the missile fields. This cutting-edge feature offers: Enhanced Safety: Improved driving capabilities to ensure our personnel are safer while navigating in rough terrain under severe weather systems. Real-Time Data:Instant access to crucial vehicle information, keeping operators informed and prepared. Elimination of Communication Dead Spots: Radio connectivity issues are resolved, ensuring constant communication even in the most remote and challenging locations. Chad Gallagher, AFGSC Site Director at SBCC, shared his personal insights: “As a former Security Forces Squadron and Group Commander at Malmstrom and Minot AFB, I wish I would have had both capabilities. In 20AF, our forces operate hundreds of miles away from the main support bases, often in some of the harshest terrain and weather seen in the US. My greatest worry was that one of my patrols would have a roll-over accident and be unable to notify anyone of their situation or location. These Level-1 Armored vehicles should reduce the number of these horrific accidents, and IRIS can potentially ensure that our vehicle operators can communicate from anywhere in the missile complex and not be hampered by the communication dead-spots. A complete game changer for the safety and security of our weapon systems and personnel!” We are proud to be a part of such a crucial advancement in military technology and look forward to the positive impact this will have on the safety and effectiveness of our defense operations. Stay tuned for more updates as we continue to drive innovation in defense technology!  #DefenseTech #Innovation #MilitarySafety #Technology #Outlerlink #AFGSC #IRIS #SmallBusiness #Consulting #DefenseIndustry #TechForGood

Hayden Froehlich of the SBCC Strategic Communication team visited Randolph AFB to meet with the team working SBCC’s first Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase III as a prime contractor. Site lead Colonel (USAF ret.) Robert G Ramirez and executive vice president Major General (USAF ret.) Bill Spangenthal were generous hosts and shared in the excitement about SBCC’s continuing work within the Air Education and Training Command (AETC) Majcom. All of us at SBCC look forward to helping the AETC mission to recruit, train, educate Airmen across the force.   Our team is already at work scouting for tech solutions and aiding in the organization of small business technology integration practices with the A5XI led by innovation chief, Lt. Col Beau Tresemer. The collaboration between the A5XI and SBCC will foster efficient methods for AETC leadership to address specific focus areas with innovative small business solutions.   Here's to education and excellence! #education #training #SBCC #AETC

We’re thrilled to share that our team recently attended the annual Air Force Life Cycle Management Center (AFLCMC) Industry Day event. This forum brought together Air Force acquisition and research leaders, uniformed and civilian Airmen alike, and top industry partners for an incredible week of collaboration and innovation. This year marked the ninth anniversary of Life Cycle Industry Days (LCID), featuring insightful speakers, expert panels, and interactive vendor booths. Our team had the privilege to engage in meaningful strategic discussions with Program Executive Officers and Air Force Research Lab (AFRL) experts, small businesses, and other key leaders.  "This event confirmed how we at SBCC must continue to commit to advancing defense solutions aligned with the SECAF’s Operational Imperatives and the USAF integrated capabilities vision." - Eric Froehlich, Chief Growth Officer, SBCC. A huge thank you to both AFLCMC and AFRL for hosting such an impactful event and to everyone who made this year's LCID a success. We look forward to continuing these valuable partnerships and being a key driver of innovation in the DoD!

🌟 Highlighting Innovation and Collaboration at the Air Force Global Strike Command (AFGSC) Code Jam! 🌟 We were thrilled to participate in the inaugural "AFGSC Code Jam," a one-day intensive coding workshop organized by AFGSC. This event brought together 20 talented developers and AFGSC personnel, including our data engineers and team members from the University Partnership Program (UPP), to tackle complex data, coding, and analysis challenges. The goal? Develop a robust coding strategy for the 13N Force Generation Assessment and Scheduling Tool (FAST) linear solver back-end. By splitting into small groups, we collaboratively brainstormed, created proof of concepts, and integrated solutions into a cohesive strategy. It was an incredible experience showcasing the power of innovation and teamwork! 🚀 Stay tuned for more updates as we continue to support AFGSC in their mission.  #AFGSC #CodeJam #Innovation #Collaboration #TechSolutions #DefenseIndustry #UPP

It’s official!! SBCC just landed our first prime contract, a Phase III SBIR, which cemented our relationship with Air Education and Training Command (AETC). We now have the opportunity and privilege to continue bringing commercial technology advancement solutions to the command. AETC’s mission is critical to the growth and readiness of our defensive force, and SBCC is thrilled to support them via innovative initiatives in this new chapter together. #Innovate #Prime #AirForce #AETC #DoD #SBIR #PhaseIII

“Ladies and Gentlemen, leadership on the frontlines of our nation’s air- and land-based strategic deterrents are covered. Sleep well tonight!”   That’s what the SBCC faculty and staff of Air Force Global Strike Command’s Striker Frontline Leadership Course (SFLC) would likely tell you after graduating two more Frontline leadership course seminars recently…and with great reason.    In June, Cohort 21 graduated with some of the strongest and most thought-provoking conversations to date. And in July, Cohort 22 engaged in amazing, student-led dialogue. Altogether, more than 80 graduates from 9 Global Strike bases and nearly three-dozen Air Force specialties represented their units, and their Service, with true excellence and pride…and all with the underlying discipline we’ve come to expect from these professionals. To do the nation’s toughest jobs 24/7/365 is no easy feat, but these Striker-Leaders – Enlisted, Officers and Civilians – proved beyond a shadow-of-a-doubt they not only know what they do and how they do it, but also know WHY! These young men and women ARE our nation’s sword and shield, and we were incredibly proud to spend time with them these past two months.     Once again, we always want to thank the incredible faculty and staff of SBCC’s Leadership team for making this all happen. We’d like to extend a huge thank you to Robin Rand, Jason Barnshaw, Bill Barrington, Cyrus R. Champagne, Charles Flanagain, Eric Foreman, Jason France, Naomi Franchetti, Joshua Hurt, Rob Lass, Susan Mace, Mark Mitchem, Mark Nemish, Jeremiah Patterson, David Satchell, Lisa Wood, Jennifer Auten, Hayden Froehlich, and Balin Howard for all you do. We are consistently grateful for your contributions in helping build our nation’s newest Frontline leaders, especially those standing watch over our nuclear and global strike enterprise!   Strike On, Leaders!    (The Striker Frontline Leadership Courses are immersive, high-engagement courses presented by SBCC in partnership with Air Force Global Strike Command. Taught primarily in small seminars to ensure the most effective student-to-facilitator ratio, their objective is to equip new Striker leaders with the capabilities and confidence necessary to take on their roles as leaders throughout the Command).    #leadership #afgsc #sbcc #strikeon #education
