Description
The Department of the Air Force is seeking information from industry partners to support the development of the DAF BATTLE NETWORK (DBN), a system-of-systems that connects sensors, effectors, and logistics systems to provide better situational awareness and faster decision-making for the joint force. The Architecture and Systems Engineering (ASE) group within the Portfolio Acquisition Executive (PAE) for Command, Control, Communications, and Battle Management (PAE C3BM) is responsible for the architecture design and systems engineering of the DBN. The group is looking for innovative organizations that can provide cutting-edge solutions and expertise in areas such as technology exploration, architecture development, systems engineering, systems integration, operational analysis, and managing systems of systems engineering tasks using Agile/SCRUM practices.
Key aspects of the work include:
• Identifying critical mission needs and determining how different weapon systems can collaborate to achieve objectives
• Developing, integrating, and analyzing command and control infrastructures for large enterprises or government entities
• Providing prototypes for laboratory and field assessments
• Supporting work at multiple classification levels, including Secret/NOFORN (S/NF), Top Secret/Sensitive Compartmented Information (TS/SCI), and SAP Networks
• Implementing JIRA and Confluence workflows to drive efficiencies in business practices
