EPASS Approach

  • Balance support needs with tough budget environment

– Quality workforce more important than ever – Larger Task Orders – with broad geographic footprint – Seeking low-risk arrangements (Industry & AF)

  • Emphasize cost-realism with salary/benefit packages

to attract quality workforce

  • Task Order requirements definition well underway
  • Draft RFPs and TIMs will help industry understand

requirements

Technology Opportunities

Long-Term Requirements–National Security Strategy

20

  • Propulsion – Fuel efficiency, thermal management, hypersonic
  • Directed Energy – Lasers, High Power Electronics
  • Position Navigation & Timing – Next generation Global Positioning System, Electro-Optical,

Cold Atom Inertial Navigation System, fusion

  • Communication Networks – Low Probability of Intercept, Low Probability of Detect,

resilient, self-healing, high capacity, Radio Frequency, Optical, fusion

  • Avionics – Integration, Fusion, Separation of Safety of Flight Systems from Mission Systems;

manned and unmanned cooperation

  • Cyber – Offensive and Defensive – More than ground-based networks
  • Air Vehicles – Smart structures; thermal management; manned/unmanned
  • Weapons – Smaller, lighter, longer range, advanced guidance/engagement
  • Intelligence, Surveillance, Reconnaissance – Sensors for challenging targets, automated/
  • n-board processing; cooperation

Technology Opportunities Required Enablers

21

  • Materials – Lighter, stronger, tailorable, heat tolerant, corrosion resistant, coatings,

apertures

  • Open Architectures – Standard backbone, standard interfaces (hardware and

software); gov’t owned, industry owned….rapid, adaptive and cost effective

  • Engineering – Physics-based modeling, System of Systems Engineering, System of

Systems Assessments; Digital thread/digital twin

  • Manufacturing – Additive Manufacturing, digital thread/digital twin, certify a process

vs a part, policy changes

  • Security – Multi-level, anti-tamper from inception; open architecture/ materials/

manufacturing/engineering advances make this critical

AF Rapid Innovation Fund

How RIF Can Help

  • Provide funds to complete technology development and

close near-term gaps

– Aligns technology with sponsor

  • Identify alternate sources of innovative technology

– Provides link between prime and Small Business – Lower risk to current efforts by providing alternate sources of “near ready” technology

  • Improve AF’s engagement with Small Business

– Means to communicate AF needs to Small Business – Involves the warfighter in the review of near term solutions
