Titan Technologies’ Post

Congratulations to the six government contracting professionals selected for the 2023-2024 Immersive Commercial Acquisition Program (ICAP) at the Defense Innovation Unit (DIU), especially my old pal Tianna Seaman. This program aims to enhance the Department of Defense's acquisition capabilities using Other Transaction authority for novel commercial technologies. While I commend the initiative, I'll share the major hurdle that we've seen at Shift through the 20+ cohorts and 450+ fellows in the #DefenseVenturesProgram. Programs like these do a wonderful job of exposing DoD Professionals to better acquisition tools and opening their eyes to game-changing commercial tech and industry processes. The challenge is finding access to those tools and being able to use the new skills once they return to their units. Here's to celebrating another great program that is trying to move the needle. Do you think this will be the one that arms leaders with the firepower to make real change? I hope the answer is yes. America is counting on it. Will Patty Ryan #defensetech #defenseinnovation

Are you a technology company with solutions relevant to the United States Department of Defense (DoD) or military applications? If so, you won't want to miss the upcoming Joint Interagency Field Experimentation (JIFX) event hosted by the Naval Postgraduate School(NPS)! What is JIFX? The JIFX team leads experimentation in alternative methods to enable rapid technological development by cultivating a community of interest and hosting broadly scoped quarterly collaborative field events. These events enable DoD, the US government, and allied stakeholders to identify, influence, and accelerate early-stage technology development that addresses national and collective security challenges. Why Participate? JIFX provides an unparalleled opportunity for NPS faculty, students, private companies, and academia to demonstrate and evaluate new technologies in an operational field environment. This is your chance to: Experiment with your technology in a close-to-real-world environment. Showcase your innovations to military personnel and receive direct feedback. Collaborate with leading minds from academia, industry, and the military. Accelerate the development and refinement of your technology with real-time input from end users. Our Experience: During the last JIFX event, we had the opportunity to demonstrate our hands-free descent technology in a mock-up city built for military training. This event allowed us to show our technology to military members who would use this capability, getting valuable feedback and recommendations to make it even better. This is an incredible opportunity to advance your technology and make a real impact. If you are interested you can reach out to the event coordinators to participate in this event. The next Event is  5–9 August 2024 at the NPS Field Laboratory at Camp Roberts.

Update on MISO/IO planner hirings: The San Antonio slots are very popular. I’m doing a pre-scrub of resumes right now for the project manager to narrow who meets the required and preferred qualifications. I called several folks to verify some points on their resumes for the scrub. If you are interested in the slots and have not completed the application link and HR forms, get them filled out as we can only review applications that are administratively complete. There is a slot in Italy (USAFRICOM). But it is complicated visa process with German and Italian gov’ts, so this is not a position that a person can immediately walk into.  CONUS Information Operations (IO) Planner – TS-SCI – Fort Meade, Maryland – multiple slots Military Information Support Operations (MISO) Planner (TS/SCI) (Ft Meade MD) – 3 slots   Military Information Support Operations (MISO) Planner (TS/SCI) (USSTRATCOM, Offutt AFB, NE) -- one applicant. Still have slots to fill if anyone is interested.   Information Operations (IO) Planner – TS/SCI – JBSA, TX Military Information Support Operations (MISO) Planner (TS/SCI) – JBSA, TX   OCONUS Military Information Support Operations (MISO) Planner – Vicenza, Italy TS/SCI (AFRICOM)  Irregular Warfare Planner - DoD TS/SCI - Camp Humphreys – Korea  --- applicant in process Engagement Planner (Military/DOD) DoD TS/SCI - Camp Humphreys – Korea  --- applicants pending interview #PSYOP #MISO #IO #OIE #USFK #Korea #STRATCOM #planner #Texas

The Joint Staff-sponsored Bold Quest 2023 joint and multinational demonstration and assessment concluded in Southern California. Military participants and observers from 17 allies and partner nations gathered to demonstrate and assess technical and procedural means of working together at strategic, operational, and tactical levels across all domains. SABRE is short for secret and below releasable environment. It's a software tool to help DOD and it's partners more easily and efficiently share information between the computer networks of the U.S., partner nations, and military services during combined and joint operations. The DOD's Mission Partner Environment will allow partner nations to use their own networks — which might not otherwise be compatible with each other — to connect to SABRE and seamlessly share information between them so that decisions can be made more quickly. Ensuring that partner nations can communicate effectively is critical because future operations are not expected to be conducted by only one nation — but by a team of nations. The Mission Partner Environment Interoperability Initiative (MII) 3.0 was also conducted at Fort Pendleton during September 2023. The Chief Digital and Artificial Intelligence Office (CDAO), in partnership with the Joint Chiefs of Staff, launched the Global Information Dominance Experiment, known as GIDE. In September, GIDE conducted its seventh iteration. The experimentation team is comprised of U.S. military and civilian personnel from all service branches and multiple combatant commands. From 11-21 September at Camp Pendleton, I had the opportunity to observe three major DOD Mision Partner exercises: Bold Quest 2023 (BQ23), Mission Partner Environment Interoperability Initiative (MII) 3.0, and the Global Information Dominance Experiment (GIDE). We had many great conversations between all the US Military Services senior leaders (GO/SES) and GO (General Officers) from our Five Eyes (UK, CAN, AUS, NZ) and other mission partners. One of the many topics of interest included an update on the Secret And Below Releasable Environment (SABRE) capability. #dod #army #missionpartners #interoperability #defenseindustry
